Around SBN: Ryder Hesjedal Wins Giro d'Italia

Third Shift Open Thread

It's only Tuesday and I can't speak for everyone but it feels like a long week. Already. Despite this, I really am looking forward to Giants-Patriots on Super Bowl Sunday. Wednesday is a bit of a lull in Super Bowl coverage but if you're into, National Signing Day tomorrow can help fill the void.

This is your open thread for the evening. Use it to talk about whatever you want.

there is the problem of an offense, Pioli’s overbearing ways will prevent anyone who thinks for themselves becoming involved with the team and we will see the team struggle for the next three years to have winning seasons and ultimately Romeo gets fired and we start, inevitably, all over again.

to be honest

I have that same irrational fear, but then logic kicks in and tells me that I am being silly.

In my opinion Romeo was the flavor of the moment hire, not the best hire. I worry about the Chiefs losing their first five games in a row and the “loyal” fans turning on him, putting the Chiefs in a crappy situation.

Because in all proof, Romeo is not a great Head Coach.

However, I am also an optimist. So, I will take whatever garbage the Chiefs throw at me and try and make into some sort of Super Bowl oragami Lombardi Trophy.

With the right moves this team can make this work. This defense has the potential to be great and if Jamaal can come back strong, it won’t matter if Ups is coaching this team.

A strong running game and a top tier defense in the NFL? Well, that will get you pretty dame far. Throw in the Killer B’s? Yeah, touchdown.

Next year will be great. Can’t wait for every moment of drama, heart ache and chiefsness.

This whole thing with Todd Haley sucks...

This time last year we were a team on the upswing.

2010 AFC West Divisional Champions with a bright future and a Coach of the Year Candidate.

Now, we are waiting for new positional coaches? What a difference a year makes, I think Haley is going to find some success if he can swim through all of this recent nonsense with the Chiefs organization. I wish him nothing but the best in his job search.

It will be nice to wake up tomorrow and read about:

The Kansas City Chiefs new Offensive Coordinator is ____________.

Except with the blanks filled in, because that gnus above is what we have been doing Thorman’s.

I agree with Aiken

Todd Haley’s pic hurts my heart.

The dude was not perfect but he was like me if I had the job and of course the training.

Keitzman: " I don’t think we were hard on Haley." Yeah right the kansas city Media was not hard on him, more like dismissive and ridicule. Nit picking the thing Rex Ryan does every day.

The entire 2011 season was a death dirge as we all watched from where ever Vultures hang out for Haley to be fired.

So start the guy he tried to start and messed up his hand/wrist

Palko was the Backup QB allllllllllllllllll – Season

Pioli agreed if not chose him.

Pioli KNEW that a QB would come available to take over for Cassel when he got hurt?

Pioli made know effort that we know of to get the Cincy QB that the Raiders grabbed.

by Steve_Chiefs on Jan 31, 2012 10:27 PM CST up reply actions  

I'm not saying Pioli is perfect

In fact, I’m not even really defending him. He’s just as much at fault as Haley. How do you build a unit around a right-handed QB and go in with a left-handed backup? Brain-dead. But that said, do you publicly rub your boss’ nose in shit? The bottom line in my opinion is that Haley could have made better decisions with the tools he had but he didn’t and now he’s out of a job. He made his own bed and now he gets to lay in it. I for one am glad I don’t have to look forward to another year of run run pass punt Chiefs football.

nig, I know he WANTS to play, absolutely

he’s a fierce competitor … he wants it, I know that full well, and I know he’s throwing and working on it, but all reports I’ve seen lately are that his strength isn’t coming back and he’s simply not gonna be ready for at least another 6 months, if then (notice … IF … then)

all of which is above and beyond extra risk due to the surgery (which is a separate issue)

It looked to me

like he changed his tune in year 3 and was much nicer to his players than the previous 2 years. If he was consistent he’s have more credibility but every year there was something different. His problem was that his biggest success came in year 2 when he had an OC. Then he reverted and the team regressed. This was a huge mistake IMO. Subjective or not.

You know and I know it was what it was

A decent season that led to the playoffs, and barring any substantial injuries (check), Cassel should continue to improve on his the negatives that plagued him in 2010 just like he did from 2009. There was no reason to believe otherwise unless you were a constant naysayer from the start.

Cassel was all that Haley had. I don’t argue with that one bit. But Weis was able to do with Cassel what Haley could not in year 1 and in year 3. He wasn’t a very good coach and that’s what I’m trying to say. When the chips were down, his attitude was horrible. So much so that he went public about tapped phones et al. Like it or not, he contributed greatly to the black eye that the Chiefs now sport as an organization. So what we know, is that Todd Haley and Scott Pioli despise each other. In any organization I’ve ever worked in, the powers that be win out in those situations.

Todd Haley

was exactly the kind of coach that the PEOPLE of KC could have rallied behind. He was a first time head coach with a good pedigree. He may not have figured it all out in his first 2+ years, but there have been many like that. Some went on to dynasty status. Without knowing why all this has happened, it sickens me to think (arguably) what could have been. Todd Haley was into the city and the fans. He had all the pieces that could have made him a Kansas City icon but we watched while the press helped the puppet master pull the right strings to get him excommunicated. My heart is sad for Kansas City. I cannot change that. Only Romeo’s great success can improve the shadow on my heart.

How do you know Zorn won't be canned?

I’ve said it a million times: I liked Haley as a motivator, but hated him as a gameday and personnel manager, decision maker, and adjustor (if that is a word).

Historic number of blowout losses (not just this season)

Haley knew how to motivate Chambers. Unfortunately for Haley, he couldn't control the size of contract that was being offered to Chambers to motivate him

Fortunately for the team though, b/c if Haley did control the contracts, we would have had Palko under a Peyton-size contract and Jerehme Urban would have been the highest paid receiver in the league.

When are blowouts not terrible?

The injuries, lockout, preseason approach, front office hijinks, Todd-Scott Dance routines….

There was so much to blame on this season.

But look outside the box for two seconds.
The Chiefs are 7-9 with a brutal schedule and 5 season ending injuries before week two and they still went on a four game winning streak and gave us some hope.

They beat the only undefeated team in the NFL and almost made the playoffs and won the division for the second time in two seasons despite a crude coaching change mid season. Sure, Haley could have stayed, Pioli could have went, but it is what it is.

All things considered, it wasn’t that bad. Let’s reload and win this shit next year!

Now, where is that new OC? Tom McMahon wants to know dammit.

Not nit-picking.

Just stating a fact. It was a middling schedule. Not brutal at all. It’s irrelevant how it looked before the season. Just like last year’s schedule was historically easy, regardless of how it looked before the season.

They were very inconsistent

there is no denying that, but there were so many positives.

The injuries happening so early almost gives the Chiefs an extra draft next season.
Steve Breaston showed to be a great signing.

Rodney Hudson, Jon Baldwin, Justin Houston, Allen Bailey all seem like potential great Chiefs done the road with a full offseason.

The defense improved without Eric Berry.
The Kickers are a good duo.

We can spend all day and night arguing the bs, but there were a lot of positives and at the end of the day this team was a field goal away from the playoffs.

The blowouts blew, Todd Haley getting fired sucked, Kent Babb is not very timely and the injuries were devastating.

However, this team showed some heart at times. The Monday Night Game against the Rivers “Worst Day Ever”… the Packers Win.

It was okay considering.

In June 2011… ask any Chiefs fan. What is your record if you lose Jamaal in game 1 and Eric in game 2 for the season. After you punched them in the ballsack… what do you say? 7-9?

I don’t think so.

Sounds like someone is looking for an instant fix

What we need is a play caller that fits which ever QB we have and knows how to utilize speed backs in the EP offense.

That is why I wanted Bruce Arians, now the pickens are more slim… but they are still out there and I think the Chiefs will find someone.

Ups is probably right about it being a Giants/ Patriots guy. The obvious name is Brian Ferentz, but outside of that… who knows?

I wouldn't mind any of those.

Less enthusiastic about Gilbride, though. I’d hate if RAC had to punch him in the face on the sidelines.

I guess what I learned from this today

Is there really isn’t any obvious candidates that would wow me. I thought there were more really great OC so maybe a young unproven guy isn’t a horrible option if thats what we end up stuck with. All I know is that we can’t do much worse then Knapp.

your the owner of a company u got a top 20 to 25 CEO in cassel but u

got a shot to get a top 5 CEO in peyton manning to lead your company, but he’s 62 years old and retirement is near, what would u do, make the switch or stay the same. Sales will go threw the roof for 3 years or stay in mediocracy and pass on it.

CEO's are overpriced AND oveerrated

and they command insane amounts in “golden parachutes” that drain resources, even if they drive the corporation into the ground

The owner of a company

would probably ship off anyone close to retirement. Offer them a package and send them off to pasture. Take a chance on the guy half his age for half his cost and see what happens.

So I'm taking Environmental Physics this semester, and I learned something really interesting.

Back in the day when they made swords, they had to melt the metal, making it really hot. And they discovered that the quickest way to cool it down was to stick it in a peasant.

i would sign him and hope the clearence comes before the season starts, if it doesn't then so be it

atleast u took the chance on getting a future hall of famer who makes u an instant super bowl contender. i Don’t think it will be that expensive to sign manning with his present injury

hard to imagine any price one way or another

have to figure he’s going to be cut by Irsay … so then wait til he’s cleared but even then it’s “iffy” … 10/yr? 15/yr? and for how long? guaranteed? bonus?

adds up … fast
