    Is there a reason you hate the guy? I don't have an opinion one way or the other on the guy, so I'd be interested to know.
    I've just seen him on the sidelines in screaming matches with his players and coaches far too often. When's the last time you saw an NFL head coach get a 15yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct? If this report is true we might just get to see it happen to the Steelers. It also doesn't help that Whiz was calling the plays in AZ. And the only year KC did Anything Weiss was calling the plays.

      You don't think this was something that was talked about during the interview process?

      He did it as an OC in Arizona too, it isn't exactly new behavior for him. I'm sure it did come up in the interview just as it's come up in every other interview he's had. He didn't suddenly change his spots, it's just a matter of time before he's pulling his same tired act on the sidelines in Heinz Field.

        He won't be pulling that BS with Tomlin and Lebeau on the sideline, not to mention the Rooney's. He's also a Pittsburgh guy and despite no longer being a head coach this has to be a dream scenario for him. I sincerely doubt we're going to see sideline screaming matches. If there is one it's going to be with Ben and after all the crap with the recent scandal I doubt he's going to step out of line himself. The Steelers have a unwritten "best behavior" clause over both individuals if you ask me. Ben coming off a big screw up and Haley surrounded by two very strong minded Coaches, the Rooney's AND his hometown team. They would NOT have hired the guy if they thought he was going to act out on the sideline. Period.

            Dont let one public display of stupidity cloud your judgement.
            You dont even know what was said, nor do any of us either.
            How do you know it didnt go like this:
            Boldin-Yo man, get me the fn ball Todd
            Haley-___________
            Boldin-Yo Todd man, muthafukin Larry has 9 catches for 152 yards and I got 4
            Haley-___________
            Boldin-Yo man this is embarrassing, this is nationally televised and crap you douche
            Haley-STFU were going to the superbowl you selfish bastard
            Im not saying Haley is my choice, but we need to see the guy before the sky starts falling.
            At least we wont have to see the 5 reciever set again

              Really?

              He's always acted the same way and all of the sudden he's going to become man of the year? If that were remotely true one would think landing a gig as HC would have had a similar effect.

                Re: **EDIT: Todd Haley has been hired as the OC

                I don't like the hire...for pretty much every sentiment expressed on this board and then some. My only solace is my trust that this organization and our head coach will make the right decisions for the success of the team. They know more than I do and I've never met Haley, so I'll roll with that and wait until he hopefully proves my gut feeling wrong.

                  He's also never been under a family like the Rooney's or with two coaches like Tomlin and Lebeau. He wouldn't have got the job if anyone in the front office thought it would be an issue. Period. You're over reacting.

                    I'm beginning to think some of you are delusional. It's not an isolated incident with him as he's acted the same way everywhere he goes. Regarding the 5 receiver set, he uses it as much if not more than Arians.

                      I like the hire.

                      at this point in his career, I feel that ben needs a kick in the azz instead of a pat on the back.

                      time will tell.

                        Re: **EDIT: Todd Haley has been hired as the OC

                        Todd Haley took over the playcalling duties from Whisenhunt during the Cards' Super Bowl season. LeBeau was pretty much a failure at HC and he seems to do a pretty good job at DC. Also, Haley and Whis are close system-wise, so Ben and the O will be fine.
                        Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                          Same. I'm still trying to figure out why some continue to doubt this organization. Sure we've had our trials and tribulations as Steeler fans but when it all boils down the Steelers don't let us as Fans down often and when they do they provide an answer. Haley is going to be a good fit for this team. I really like the hire.

                            Honest question, please show me proof where Haley while as OC has consistently used 5 WR sets.

                            Insanesteelerfan are you back in disguise?

                              Gotta support the team's decision now folks. Lets give him time to show what he's got in store for our offense. Geez, i feel like i just typed something like this about our head coach hiring like it was last week.

                                Here's hoping Haley can pinpoint talented blockers- not necessarily 1st round types, but guys that can make his system work.
