Pioli and Haley hate each other. Haley ran Charlie Weis out of town. Haley refuses to run the system that Pioli wanted him to run when hired.
Last year was his second season as HC but the first season with RAC and Chalie as his coordinators... His first season was abyssmal. He devalued Cassel out of the gate because he wasn't his guy and he nearly got him killed in 2009 after firing Chan Gailey who was his holdover OC on the eve of the season. Once Charlie arrived things got back on track until Haley started to exert himself heading into the playoffs... Next thing you know Charlie is headed back to college. This season he installed a puppet OC and playcalling became so tortured (since Haley wanted to control it but he had to make it look like the clown in the booth was) Cassel was exploding in frustration at and eventually on the sidelines because they couldn't get playcalls in on time. Pioli was rumored to have been ready to fire him weeks ago, but then they started winning so he had to wait until that ceased... He's reportedly an arrogant little snot that no one can get along with.
Haley's claim to fame was that he was the OC of the AZ Cardinals (whose former Steeler OC HC wouldn't let him call plays until midway through that season) when Warner led them to a superbowl. He bounced around the league as a WR's coach and the Dallas passing game coach (LOL - do they divy things up like that anywhere else besides Washington when Snyder hired 4 HC's at once...). He was a coaching assistant back in NY when Parcell's went to the JETS, but he got the position by virtue of nepotism because his old man was in the JETS personnel department after a long stint with the Steelers).
Probably because there is an unwritten rule that when a front office person or coach leaves a team for a new job, they don't raid their former team's coaching staff. Pioli probably didn't go after McDaniels out of respect for Belichick.
so two coaches who beat the colts are fired already and caldwell is still employed by polian ?
If you go winless in a professional league you should be fired immediately. No qualms about it.Polian in his latest weekly radio program stated he is hoping Jim's job isn't in jeopardy if they fail to win a game, but just in case they are really trying to win one... He thought they were competitive in the Baltimore game...as opposed to so far behind the Ravens let up. Fans over on Coltfreaks are going bat**** on Polian at this juncture. They want him worried about his job and his kids job if not gone with Caldwell and a clean slate to develop Luck within an organization that won't construct another house of cards for his kid to inherit around the premise that nothing really matters as long as you have your QB...only to find out when you don't you're totally screwed because your team sucks.
