I think beating the Donkeys saved him a lot of grief.

My sentiments are likely to be summed up with one of these 2 quotes:

"Shut the f--- up."- Matt Cassel
"WHAT THE F---?!?!"- Todd Haley

Have to dis him...

Because I believe that is what he would give himself. The good news is he seems to realize his mistakes and he will get better…we hope.

Surprised its this lopsided

Thought it would be more 50/50.

Overall he did ok

But some of his coaching moves were suspect, as was his game management. And he just did too much.

I’m in the not sure category right now. We’ll see how his players respond to his conditioning requirements during the offseason. I think that’ll show who is on board and who isn’t.

Approve

Being a first year HC you have to expect some growing pains and mistakes. With that being said, he did the best he could with what he had. You can’t ask for more from a rookie coach.

He seemed to get more comfortable with the job as the season went along

and really looks to be a good coach in the future.

It's amazing what 1 good game did for his approval rating.

Chiefs set an NFL record,most roster changes in 1 season.

I dont think it was the win

but rather Jamaal Charles that has bumped his approval poll up. There is now hope, when a month ago there really wasn’t

I think

if he brings Crennel and/or Weis in his apporval will be through the roof

by tomahawk44 on Jan 6, 2010 12:55 PM CST reply actions

Approved

He had a rocky start, but he never waivered or flip flopped on his decisions. he pretty much did as he said and didn’t back down under pressure. gotta respect that.

Disapproved you guys put waaay too much in one meaningless win

by FrankPitts on Jan 6, 2010 1:11 PM CST reply actions

hey we doubled our wins from last year

but on the flip side we also lost a lot of games we should have won. I am giving him an approval for now. Lets see how this offseason shapes up.

You mean to tell me he got that much of an approval from that many people...

even after he alleged to have given some anonymous fan the finger who called him an asshole? Where’s Jack Harry?

Winning begins with Attitude - Haley and Pioli will be winners in KC!

I'll forever be a Chiefs fan! Only God himself could take that away from me, but when I get to my great reward, I'll rejoin two bigger fans, my Mom and Dad.
