Haley Haters

[LatrobePA]

The pastry chef... Ran out of the pocket then turned back and ran into the pocket then got killed by two KC defenders and almost popped an aorta... we go 2-5 after... The pastry chef never throws the ball Out of Bounds to save his life. The Pastry chef ruined two years of Steeler domination because he is stubborn and wont listen.... His cookies are getting crushed....

I like this!

1st year OC Mularkey: 13-3 AFC title game.

The offensive line was good; Jerome Bettis was in his prime, and the defense was dominant.

1st year OC Whiz: 15-1 AFC title game.

The offensive line and running game were good, and the defense was dominant.

1st year OC Arians: 10-6 AFC North winners

Willie Parker was in his prime behind the last good offensive line the Steelers had, and the defense was dominant until injuries took their toll late in the season.

1st year OC Haley: 8-8, 3rd place.

Medicore offensive line, medicore RBs, and a defense that partied like it was 2009 early in the season.

You don't understand, the things that hurt Haley the most were of his own doing.

I had no idea Todd Haley was also a scout for the team and the strength-and-conditioning coach.

He. Did. Not. Leave. The pocket. On that play. People who think he did have either no eyes or no brains, and I'm embarrassed that they cheer for the same team that I do.

Ben stepped up in the pocket to avoid pressure off the edges. Still nobody got open downfield, and by that time the pocket collapsed and Ben had nowhere to throw it. He could not throw the ball away from the pocket or the offense lose 10 yards for intentional grounding. The sack only cost them three yards. (Look up the goddamn play-by-play if you don't believe me.) Taking the sack was the smart thing to do, which not only flies in the faces of those who hate Ben, but shits in their faces in the process.

By the way, that was the only time he even got sacked that game, so no, he didn't "ask for it."

I just hope someone gives him a head coaching job and then we wont have to talk about it any more.

No but he's the idiot who designs the plays and the formations.

Too many bodies at the LOS. Too much congestion.

That's why you have linemen and Heath getting rolled up and injured.

Yea, it's called football. You see, you need your linemen to protect the Quarterback, you need the quarterback to throw the football. A running back is optional if you want to run or play action pass. The tight end can be kept in to help block or sent out to run a route.

So spread 'em out. Loosen the congestion at the LOS. Get rid of garbage like Paulson and Johnson and use the skill you have on offense.

[JensK]

To be fair, Paulson actually had a fairly decent season everything compared.

Ironically enough, that would be the Bruce Arians offense. . .Funny, Arians' system last year with the Steelers was the best in the NFL between the 10's, but the friggin guy couldn't call a meaningful play in down and goal territory. What the Steelers need, and this will come from Haley, is a mix of Arians down the field playbook and Haley's own posession playbook.

[Crash]

Based on what? He can't block, and he can't get open.

Stole snaps all year from guys who deserved them.
