5 Top Candidates to Replace Todd Haley This Offseason

[feltdizz]

And if one or both are not gone, then Tomlin need to go.

we keep both and fire Tomlin.... stupid idea.

[Shoe]

Not to mention a hall of famer. Guys like Haley are a dime a dozen. Haley is one of the worst offensive coordinators in the league. "Unproven" would be describing him kindly.

Unproven is kind of what you want. I don't think you want a big-name guy. You want a young, hungry, hard-working, creative guy.

Haley WILL be back for year #3, as they are gonna make a push to make the playoffs here. (gotta beat Miami though)

I'm not so sure. If you've watched MIA (I have, since I bet they'd win 8 games). They certainly don't move the dial, but they are in every game they play. It seems like a good situation for us, but I'm scared.

this guy has to be kidding.
an old geezer
a first year qb coach of alex smith
a rb coach when the league is a passiong league now
frank reich
a qb coach of a half season qb like foles
kirby wilson.............our running game is a disgrace and we want him calling the shots? he should be fired but wont be.......

please.......you're telling me there isnt some proven commodities out there or young whiz kids in college that can produce points.
i would stick with haley over these bums

Haha. You said it. The only candidate there that I see is Fichtner. How is Kirby Wilson so highly regarded, coaching our RBs for the last few years?

[Sugar]

How about none of the above. The Offense is showing great signs of improvement despite an OL that can't stay healthy and people want to fire the OC? smh...

[Captain Lemming]

If you go by performance, I'd say Lebeau should go over Haley. I know most don't like Haley and I can see why but I do think Haley has outperformed Lebeau from a coaching standpoint this season.

ONE SEASON does not a career make.
Our defense has been number one in yards and or points 7 times under DL.
We are ONE SEASON removed from the last time.

NEVERTHELESS, in THIS season, DLs FIRST AND ONLY sub top10 defensive season with us EVER, it ranks HIGHER than our Offense measure by BOTH yards and scoring.
No Haley is BY NO MEASURE better than DL.

You watch the games, Lemming. Don't kid yourself. We've faced Geno Smith, Jason Campbell, Matt Cassel, Jake Locker, EJ Manuel, Terrelle Pryor, Aaron Pryor, and Richard Pryor.

We should be ranked #1 in the league this year, if we were any good on defense.

[Captain Lemming]

and Richard Pryor.

Gotta say this was good.

Norv Turner is my first choice.

[pfelix73]

Norv Turner = a loser. Everywhere he goes, he loses...... no thanks!

As a HC he is 114-122-1... yuck. Yea, back in the early 90's he was ok as a OC, but that was a long time ago.

Yeah. Look up his OC record.

[flippy]

How bout Mike Shannahan? or the ancient Chan Gailey?

I think Haley stays at this point.

[bostonsteeler]

How bout Mike Shannahan? or the ancient Chan Gailey?

I think Haley stays at this point.

Agreed. Ben is playing as well as he ever did just now, and the O is doing OK.

The D gives up yards in giant chunks.

[NorthCoast]

Haley is the perfect Ying to Roethlisberger's Yang.

Everyone knows he is a bad HC.. but he is a pretty good OC or at least that is what damn near everyone says.

[DukieBoy]

I'm going to nominate The Mentalist, Patrick Jane.

@ If there was one braintrust decision I do have to question, it was the lack of use of Le'Veon Bell after the first quarter. Bell had eight carries for 32 yards on Pittsburgh's first touchdown drive.

He got seven carries after that. In fact, the Steelers ran the ball nine times on that first touchdown drive, but just 12 more times after that. And one of those was an 8-yard run by Ben Roethlisberger on fourth-and-10.

Before you start killing Todd Haley on that, realize that the Steelers were running a lot of no-huddle in the second half, which means Roethlisberger was making many of those calls.

Bell looks like a younger version of Matt Forte and it should be the goal to get him 25 touches every game, with 20 or so carries and five or so receptions.
