How will the Super Bowl affect KC's coaching situation?

It stands to reason that the Super Bowl could affect who will coach our boys in red next season. I, like I'm sure many of you, will be interested to see how Haley coaches the Cardinals' offense against the Steelers' defense. My question is what scenarios do you think will help or hurt the case to hire Haley? The game could cause KC fans to be passionate about hiring or not hiring Haley. For the sake of simplicity and comparison, please give two numbers: offensive points scored by the Cardinals that will significantly help Haley's shot and offensive points scored by the Cardinals that will significantly hurt Haley's shot.

Here's my stab at it:

Help: 24 or more

Hurt: 13 or less

have a good point. I’m looking forward to the big Jack Harry- Clark Hunt interview after the game too. It seems that a little more insight from Clark will help all of us try to see what it is that he and Pioli are looking for. I DO think that Haley is high on their list

I do not thik it matters.

I believe Pioli already knows who he is hiring. If it is Haley then it doesn’t really matter what happens in the game. You don’t male a judgement based on the result of a single game.

I have to disagree...

I think the possible PR nightmare of the Cardinals putting a goose egg on the board would dissuade Pioli… or at least make him think twice.

I honestly don't believe Haley is a top candidate

He may be on the list, but I don’t think he’s the main guy Pioli is after. Grimm is a much more qualified candidate and if the Chiefs were going after someone on the Cardinals, Grimm should be the guy not Haley.

The onlyreason Haley has been brought up is because he was on Parcells staff in New York and Dallas. So while he is someone that is probably being considered, I don’t imagine its as much a lock as some people imagine.
