Todd Haley will be back

[GuernseyCard]

Please don’t tell me that MB & SK would be that stinking stupid to promote Goodwin. With some decent options out there, why would Goodwin EVER be an option. EVER.

What do you know about Goodwin that SK and MB don't?

 

[Dude]

However, if its Todd Haley that could make a difference. IMO he made Fitz a better player.

Kurt Warner did that just ask Fitz.

 

[GuernseyCard]

If Haley is brought in it would guarantee Fitz plays next year.

Getting CP back is a heck of a lot more important to Fitz than Haley IMO...

Todd Haley will be back soon

Just curious, do any of you have any insight as to whether players have input to a coaching change, specifically the Cards?

I was thinking that today with regard to Larry Fitzgerald. Would they ask Larry to be a part of the interviews? Larry says his plan is to play golf for a week and then go on a long trip...so in all likelihood MB and SK may not ask him.

So he's gonna be hanging out with birdman for the week. Maybe he can give us some insight.

Maybe even by Wednesday!

That would suck.

A strong FO does not ask players about coaching hires. Have to draw a line and keep it there. It's the way business is run.

This. Players play, coaches coach, GM's gm.

Haley is borderline mentally unstable. No thanks.

You jest except Birdman actually does know Fitz and does hang out with him as his golf coach.

I don't know. He called the winning drive in the NFC Campionship game with Q throwing a temper tantrum in his face and kept his cool.

Haley is borderline mentally unstable. No thanks.

If that were the case, he wouldn’t be the OC with arguably the MOST stable organization in all of professional sports. He’s a very disciplined coach improve this team quickly. I like Haley, but is like Shurmur & McDaniels also. Should be interesting what we do.

It’s not common but I have heard of circumstances where long-term, veteran QBs are asked for input. Never heard of a receiver being asked, but Fitz is not your typical receiver.

Pittsburgh PD spokeswoman says Todd Haley’s wife Christine was involved in a “minor scuffle” shortly after midnight Jan. 1. “The scuffle was quickly ended. Todd Haley was not involved nor injured.” Both Haleys were escorted out of the bar. No injuries or charges.

Per @RapSheet, Todd Haley was attacked outside the bar. Police have no information on this part of the situation.

Report: Todd Haley injured hip in New Year’s Eve altercation outside a bar

The Steelers said today that offensive coordinator Todd Haley will be able to coach in next weekend’s game despite suffering an injury in a fall. They did not provide any details about the fall, perhaps because they didn’t want it known that he had a run-in with someone who shoved him at a bar.

But that’s what happened, according to NFL Network: Haley was shoved outside a bar near Heinz Field on New Year’s Eve after the Steelers beat the Browns.

The report says Haley suffered a hip injury and may need to coach next weekend’s game from the booth, instead of the sideline.

This isn’t the first time an incident with Haley at a bar has made the news. In 2013, Haley was accused of having words with patrons at a bar that included Haley asking a man, “Why do you have to be so gay?” Haley confirmed that he had been at the bar and written “Chiefs suck” on a napkin he autographed, but he denied having anything other than jovial interactions with the other patrons.

Police have reportedly investigated the shoving incident but no arrests have been made.

Wanted Haley as HC. Not sure if it will happen anymore.

I'm hearing @Steelers QBs coach Randy Fichtner is front runner to replace Todd Haley as offensive coordinator if/when change is made. Nothing official to my knowledge so we'll see how this plays out.

That's interesting, so if Munchak isn't going to be OC, he would have to be in line to be HC. This might hint that Tomlin is gone.

Sources: The #Steelers are allowing OC Todd Haley to walk now that he’s out of his contract. Pittsburgh expected to have a new OC.

 

[sdscard4]

Best part is he wrote Chiefs suck on a napkin. That alone makes me want him
