Comments on: Todd Haley Should Be Thankful For LJ http://arrowheadaddict.com/2009/10/28/todd-haley-should-be-thankful-for-lj/ A Kansas City Chiefs Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and more Fri, 25 May 2012 06:14:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Quazzimotto http://arrowheadaddict.com/2009/10/28/todd-haley-should-be-thankful-for-lj/#comment-8134 Quazzimotto Mon, 02 Nov 2009 19:43:08 +0000 http://arrowheadaddict.com/?p=4677#comment-8134 I don't like conservative play calling because it gets you no where. Look at Jim Tressel, conservative to the max, each of his "championship" teams had great upside and in the end they ALWAYS were blown out by the NON-conservative approach teams (Florida, LSU, USC...). I like that about Haley, but this running up the middle crap 3 times in a row has got to go. Also, I was looking at the Walterfootball 2010 Mock Draft recently and they have the Chiefs taking Brandon Spikes with the 36th overall pick. And underneath it they said, "the Chiefs need him, but he'll probably be benched most of the season because he's so talented...". It was a shot at Haley and one that I had to laugh and agree with because thats what he's done on a consistent basis. As bad as we are, we NEED our best players out there playing together and contributing rather than being benched or cut. This year has been a nightmare of bad decisions, poor planning, and worse execution. We have a lot to sort out. I hope Haley can get it together and realize that at some point the team needs to find an identity and be unified, instead of swapping, benching, and cutting whoever on a whim. We'll be this bad and worse until that happens. I don’t like conservative play calling because it gets you no where.
