Bonofied Wed, 14 Aug 2013 12:39:51 -0400 <p><br>Help!</p> <p> </p> <p>I live in St. Louis but I have been watching the <a href="" class="sbn-auto-link">Chiefs</a> via Sunday Ticket on my PS3. I just read today that Sunday Ticket is dropping PS3 and going exclusive to Xbox. As far as I understand it I have only a couple options:</p> <p> </p> <p>1. Buy an Xbox and subscribe to Sunday Ticket (+ Xbox live Gold). - cost approx. $600 Not going to happen</p> <p>2. Get Direct TV - Not a possibility where I live unfortunately</p> <p> </p> <p>Is there no other way to watch my Chiefs this season? I guess I can go to a sports bar but I don't really want to have to do that every week with a 2 year old. I'm thinking I'm just f'ed. Thanks NFL.....</p> Jeremy Maclin in Springfield Bonofied Thu, 05 Jan 2012 17:14:51 -0500 <h3 class="link-title"><a href="!/jmac_18" rel="nofollow">Jeremy Maclin in&amp;nbsp;Springfield</a></h3> <div class="description"><p><p>Don't know why he's there, but my first thought was DGB.

Immaturity</b></p> <p>We are a young team with an immature Head Coach.  That is a very bad combination.  I think the players all like Haley, I do to as a person, but when the game is on the line I don't want Haley coaching my team.  He is too reactive and overthinks himself.  A coach who is not swayed by emotion would be ideal.  I believe his immaturity is half the reason Weis left and probably conflicted with Weis' playcalling as well. </p> <p> </p> <p><b>3. Offensive philosophy</b></p> <p>Haley's offensive philosophy might be fine with <a href="" class="sbn-auto-link">Kurt Warner</a> at QB, but with Cassel we need to run the ball and use the TE more.  At halftime we were down 10-7 and looking good, after the half we stop using Charles (again) and try to start airing it out against a man-to-man D with blitzers lining up for their shots on Cassel.  Cassel can't handle that (which is another problem imo) and Haley/Weis don't understand that or have convinced themselves otherwise.  We need a coach with a run first mentality and build your passing game around that.  Haley isn't that guy.</p> <p> </p> <p><b>4. Toughness</b></p> <p>I think Haley is all bark, no bite.  I hate to paraphrase 2.7, but the guy never played football.  He's all x's and o's with absolutely no toughness other than a possible need for anger management.  This is something I've become convinced he can never fix and is quite possible the reason we are going to get housed every time we play a tough team.  </p> <p> </p> <p>Who is a better coach?  I don't know a specific one, but I believe that we are rebuilding and we need to get one now rather than later.  It's much easier to get a new coach in here when you have so many young players with so much to learn.  Don't let them learn their coaches bad habits now, get rid of him and bring in a tough, level-headed, defensive minded head coach.  Now that I think about it I think Romeo Crennel would be a good head coach for this team.  Sure he failed his first time, but that was in Cleveland.  Many a coach has failed in Cleveland.  Bellechick anyone?  I'm sure he's learned from the past and the players, especially this young D, would play hard for him.  </p> <p>Ugh, you know it's bad when I'm calling for Romeo Crennel to be our head coach, but I honestly think he would be a massive upgrade over Haley. </p>
