This was not the move Todd Haley needed to be making, the offense was even worse under his tutelage. I don't care if Charlie Weis is immediately hopping a plane for the Swamp, as soon as the game ends, you DO NOT make such a change this late in a season. The Chiefs had a good thing going for 17+ weeks and Todd Haley threw a fit and made a major change in the final 2 quarters. If Charlie's pending departure was going to be such a problem, then Haley should've dismissed him late last week & had the whole week to prep himself for running the offense. Todd Haley is making himself seem more and more like an impulsive "hot head". Not something you want to read as a Chiefs' fan today. This only pours salt over the wounds.Bob Fescoe of 610 Sports in Kansas City reports that Haley stripped Weis of the play-calling duties during the second half of the game. Which means that the horrendous showing is on the shoulders not of the guy who left the team, but of the guy who’ll still be there.
Report: Haley stripped play-calling duties from Weis
The news confirms Jason Whitlock’s in-game instincts. After the Chiefs tried to run a sweep on fourth and short early in the second half, Whitlock said via Twitter: “Todd Haley, ladies and gentlemen. He just put his stamp on the game with 4th-down call. And trust me, that was all Haley.”
It was all Haley. For all of the second half.
