I would imagine his days are numbered in san diego, he and aj smith. Do you all think hell get another chance as a head coach or do you think we could get him in as an oc, i think that would be high profile amd would make the new hc, especially if its romeo, jjob easier.

I never understood the obvious man crush Haley had with Palko. I can understand throwing pics while under duress, but to stand in the pocket and deliver the ball to the defender as if he was the intended receiver is quite another issue altogether. How in the world Palko even has a place in the NFL is beyond me.
I'll give Pioli credit if you give Haley a break for losing some of our best players. If we didn't lose Jamaal Charles, Berry, Moeaki, and Cassel we'd be in the playoffs and Haley would still be fighting with Pioli over personal issues. Maybe Haley wasn't the right coach I'll admit that but maybe Pioli isn't the right GM. Time will tell, I think Pioli definetly has his good points but firing a guy because you don't get a long with him is childish.
The only reason a beer sweats around Canada is because he's decided it will be the next beer he drinks.
Personell wise Pioli is great he finds some diamonds in the rough Kendrick Lewis in the fifth round and Justin Houston in the third still amazed with that.I just hope whoever is the new HC Pioli lets them coach and pick their own coordinators Norv Turner might be an amazing coordinator but if you don't fit in with the coaches idea of how he wants his team run then it's not a good fit and for Pioli if you don't believe in a guy don't hire him.![]()
I agree! If his problem with Pioli was because of interfering with what He was trying to do, He has no issue, because he could not let go of being a OC. He was doing the same thing! The question now is, who was the biggest problem. Time will tell the answer to that. It may have been a personality clash, it happens, or it is a micromanagement issue from the top down. Time will tell.
He was not fired for a poor performance.
And, if he was playing Palko to spite his boss, then clearly, he had already been ordered to make the witch.
The GMs job is not to make on-the field decisions. That is the HCs job.
And the whole situation seem to root at the OC position.
If the HC wants to coach his team by calling the offensive plays, then that would be his decision too.
But, again, what I am saying is that there nothing is going to convince me that Pioli was perfect in his dealing with Haley.
And, while you may choose to argue that, I guarantee that Scott Pioli would not.
As for the hammer and nail situation, you hired me to build the house. Don't tell me how to hammer, and I will do it right.
But, when you come in, as an amateur, and try to tell me, the professional, how I should swing the hammer, you are in the wrong.
Just because you have the option of the final say, (firing) does not change that you are wrong.
Todd Haley is the HC, and Scott Pioli is not a coach at all.
Todd Haley should have been doing the coaching, not Pioli.
And now, because he refused to work with Todd Haley, who also could have done alot to improve his relationship with Pioi, Scott Pioli now finds himself with a situation of looking for a new HC, who is going to be willing to let Pioli make all the coaching calls.
I don't think he is going to find any proven coaches to do that.
I think he better let Crennel have the job. Because Any coach is getting other offers is going to go elsewhere.
All I am saying is that Pioli is not innocent in this.
He absolutely had his part in it.
Pioli and Haley, both came to KC as rookies in there positions. Both, have made mistakes, but Pioli is higher up on the food chain. Change had to be made, or was ordered from the top, to be made. Hc falls before a GM takes a fall.
