Todd Haley fired in KC
The losses kept mounting, the tension kept growing and ultimately Kansas City Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli decided the status quo was no longer good enough.
The Chiefs won the AFC West title last year but have stumbled to a 5-8 record this season. Quarterback Matt Cassel is out for the season with a hand injury and the team's offense has sputtered behind backup QB Tyler Palko.
Kansas City was 19-27 during Haley's tenure.
Does anyone else see anything wrong with this picture?

Re: Todd Haley fired in KC
we could fire gailey and then hire haley, which is exactly the kind of move the bills would make.
at what point are the bills going to start canning their scouts. The team absolutely blows talent wise. and it has for 12 years. we keep moving around chairs on the titanic. the issue is the hole in the boat!
Fix the scouting. go ahead, can all the scouts, and just poach a team from NE, GREENBAY, etc.

The fact that the Bills are running a promotion for 2012 season tickets... One of the perks of putting a deposit down? "Playoff Priority for 2011."
The marketing department, apparently, hasn't gotten the memo about the Bills and the 2011 playoffs yet...

Also, Ralph wanted to make Smith GM when Butler was fired, but he followed Butler to S.D. instead. And I would not call Butler a legendary GM. He was no Polian.
I think the Butler situation worked out well for the Bills in retrospect. Butler died & Smith does not look like a GOOD GM to me & he may be fired after this year. I am happy the Bills have Nix at GM rather than Smith myself.

And, to be honest, if the on-field results the past 12 years are any indication of what goes on in the front office at One Bills Drive (and I believe they are), I can't say that I blame Butler for ignoring or not returning Wilson's calls.

in the meanwhile the bills have brought in retread coaches and done what exactly?
I hope that Wilson knows that whatever legacy he wants to build after his death, that everyone will just breath a sigh of relief and no one will remember him for what he thinks he's going to be remembered for.
He was an ego filled, prideful man who never understood football and will always go down as one of the great losers of our time.

Re: Todd Haley fired in KC
wow, how these fans are so quick to point the barrel of the gun at the coaching staff who lost their best players on both sides of the ball. I agree with the point of this falling on past crapshoot drafts. green bay had serious injury issues last season, but kept their pace and won the freaking superbowl. our depth is our problem. we have nothing to back up our starters. if we were healthy all year long (which will never happen), we would be in the playoff hunt right now probably at around 9-3, or 8-4 at the worst, and we would have beaten the dolphins twice, the jets at least once, and the chargers yesterday would have been the pad our resume for the playoff job game.www.gamersconspiracy.com - where gamers conspire

I can't argue about your thoughts on Ralph.
