corta765 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Just such a mistake IMO. The guy just got canned because he couldn't do enough with the 3 B's and now your expecting him to maximize a crappy Cleveland roster. Some of the analytics people I read spoke of how he was very arrogant with his scheme believing the talent of his players out weighed actual game plan which showed in big moments. Add in the guy is a straight up d*ck to people and it just seems like a disaster in the making. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it's a good pick up but until they find a better HC I'm not sure anything matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got fired because he was not on speaking terms with Big Ben and they had a person who would relay information. Reports were calling them a buffer. He also dropped what on the jags he didn't lose job because of performance he lost it because he is a head case and wears people thin not saying this is a good hire just he was putting up numbers in Pitt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Glad Hue can get away from what he actually does well, play calling, and focus all his efforts on clock mismanagement and throwing players under the bus. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's quite the acerbic person and that grates on people to the point where his welcome is eventually worn out. The relationship between him and Big Ben became untenable and he was of course is out.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Wow, that’s all I can say. The Browns are ridiculous. Plus the Steelers D practiced against Haley’s scheme every day, and the Browns play them twice a year.

Chicken Boo Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 No doubt, Dorsey has a plan. Hue and Haley to mentor a young QB could be big! Haley is an ass, but a pretty good OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a deceptive 42 points. It's actually difficult for an OC to fail when you're handed Big Ben, Bell, Brown, and the rest of that offense.

You do understand that there are nuances to everything, correct? The Steelers did not run up and down the field on the Jags; they had some extremely fortunate results and scored half of those 42 points in the 4th quarter when the Jags were doing their best "play not to lose" impersonation. I'm not saying Haley stinks; I'm also not praising him as a miracle worker given the tools he had to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying Haley stinks; I'm also not praising him as a miracle worker given the tools he had to work with. Where is anyone calling him a miracle worker? The bottom line is they put up 42 points in an elimination game and when the offense brought Pitt back within one score the defense failed to stop the Jags, IIRC this happened twice in the 4th quarter alone. 42 is good enough to win, if you want to call it deceptive fine. I don't think there is any confusion on why Haley is leaving Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
