Re: Todd Haley fired......guess his .432 win pct wasn't enou
Maybe Haley lost the team, maybe ownership caved to public outcry, and maybe they think they found somebody better. All that said, there's no guarantee that they will improve with a new hire, no matter how loud or how hard they demand it.
Regarding McDaniels, I don't think he's performed well enough to get another head coaching shot this soon.
You have to evaluate your coaches independent of things that are out of their control, and then if you make the determination that another coach, or style, or public image, better suits your team, then you make the decision.RealRamsFan said:

Difference between Haley and Spags the base support.
Haley had nothing left. He had already lost the players according to some reports and IDK one Chief fan that wnated to keep him past this season. They all hated his guts. He finally lost the support of the FO and owner.
Spags has seen his support base erode this year but IMO it is strong enough, baring any adverse events, to keep him around another year. I Spags loses his job it would have to do as much with Stan as anything else.
If McD leaves we have to find someone bred in the same system to replace him. 3 systems in 3 years is a bad thing.

Guess the Dolphins didnt want to be outdone. They just fired Sparano(sp?). That surprises me more than Haley. I thought the Dolphins had started to play a lot better of late and they would at least keep him around till the end of the year.

No surprise there. Any team that has decided to go in a different direction next season is smart to cut ties now. that way you get a head start on finding your replacement......

Yeah, but most high profile coaches are going to wait until the end of the year and weigh all their options. And we already know that IF Kroenke does anything, it won't be until the season is over. At least that's what he said.Faceplant said:

Oh jeez, im becoming even more nervous for Spags. These teams fired their HCs after embarrassing blowout losses, we just had one last week lol. It just feels like a bad omen.
Sparano was pretty much gone the moment they went after Jim Harbaugh in the offseason. Having some wins and close losses recently just delayed the inevitable.

He will finish out the season and then any changes will come. Really the only thing we can do now is wait for the news to come, it's like being in the waiting room while someone is in surgery. Not much we can do but wait to see.

I have no idea why with 3 games left you fire a guy if his replacement isn't on hand to take over and evaluate. This never made any sense. Half a season and you might get to change a few things in the system to gauge talent but that's about it.
Now the Fins needed some mustard on their hotdog and sack theirs. Must have been a slow news day.
NO way Spags gets fired in the season. And I have a strong feeling he won't get fired after either. Maybe some changes at position coaches and possible new focus on the roster and player dev. but that's it.

I'd say that the one thing that MIGHT save Spags besides the crap that has been out of his control is that Stan historically is a bit more patient than typical NFL owners. Guess we'll see though.
As to Josh leaving... Tebow's latest heroics may be the thing that boosts his stock and could lead to another HC gig sooner than any of us envisioned. I still don't buy it. If it happens, it happens. I'm still leaning toward Spags and Josh getting another season to right the ship.

My take as well. AND, I really think that is how Stan is going to look at things. I have no doubt that Stan wants to win but I'm just not sure he will look at all his options and think he is better off with a new coach. I think there will be some changes - maybe some of them mandated by Stan. But I still think Spags is our head coach next season. Just a hunch - nothing more.

I would be pissed and unhappy if Spags would be gone next year, but wouldn't a new HC hire their own staff and get rid of McD anyway?

apart from him losing the team i don't think the chiefs liked how haley always looked like a hobo standing there on the sideline and in front of the media. that was a big fuck you from haley to the front office because they expect a clean cut image.
