        I'm still holding out hope that the hiring of Haley is just a bad dream.

          Why the hate for Haley? You haven't seen day one with the guy and you hate him already? That doesn't make alot of sense. Do you know him personally or something?

            Apparently his players think so highly of him they throw parties to celebrate when he leaves.

            He's had repeated blow ups with players and coaches on the sidelines. When is the last time you saw an HC in the NFL get his team penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct? From all accounts he's just not good people and his resume as an OC isn't exactly spectacular. He spent two years as an OC in AZ and didn't call his own plays until midway through the 2nd season. He didn't teach Warner how to get rid of the ball, read defenses, or accuracy. Warner had all of those traits long before his arrival. It's not exactly a stretch to say that any success he had was due to Warner and Fitzgergald. And the only time he had any success in KC Charlie Weiss was the OC.

              You can say just as many good things as well...

              Without Haley, how many playoff appearances have the Cardinals made?

              In KC, Haley inherited a 2-14 team and won the division within two years...

              Just because he may or may not be a good people person has no bearing upon the job he has done with offenses...
              Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                Whiz was calling the plays until midway through the 2nd season. He won the division with Weiss as OC, in the weakest division in the NFL, and against a WEAK schedule. How many playoff games have they made without probable future HOF QB Warner?

                  Whiz handed over the playcalling to Haley halfway through the first season. Haley called all the plays the year they went to the SB.

                      Re: Wesley Saunders Suspended?

                      Damn, looks to be true.

                      [url="http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/steelers/s_780418.html"]http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsbu ... 80418.html[/url]

                      The Steelers will be without tight end Weslye Saunders, who showed promise as a rookie in 2011, for the first four games of the 2012 season.

                      Saunders, who played in all 16 regular-season games in 2011, has been suspended by the NFL for the first quarter of the season. The Steelers confirmed the suspension today but did not give a reason for the punishment.

                      The 6-5, 270-pound Saunders caught four passes for 29 yards and a touchdown last season.

                      Saunders had been widely considered one of the top tight end prospects in the 2011 draft, but the South Carolina product went undrafted free agent after getting kicked off the team prior to his senior season.

                      South Carolina booted Saunders for violating team rules and lying to the NCAA about his dealings with an agent. He signed with the Steelers in July, following the end of the NFL lockout.

                          it doesn't matter to me... 4 games is 4 games... I was hoping he would be in the game plan early on next year.

                            Not surprising to see the hate on the Offensive Coordinator not stopping even before he calls a single play. Not surprising and LeBeau is probably dancing in the streets because it gives him another year of not be held accountable by fans because it will always be the offense's fault
                            "My team, may they always be right, but right or wrong...MY TEAM!"

                                I take my tombstone vid back, hearing on the radio the NFL has some explaining to do on this one.

                                #Steelers Wes Saunders isn't going anywhere because he did nothing wrong. But unfortunately we live in a world where assume the worst first.
