Question About Todd Haley (Cardinals OC)?

was it just me, or did he call a horrible game....im watching it with no particular favorite team, and it was clear (to me) that he was calling a Loss. He didnt really have any down the field attmpts, when you have Larry Fitzgerald....He mostly went to the backs, and Anquan Boldin for 7 yards....

i felt like he was calling a safe game, and that obviously didnt benefit his team

Your Thought?

    I think it wasn't his best, but remember this was the number one Defense in the NFL that they were up against, and Pitt had 2 free weeks to game plan this to shut down the playmakers and they got it done until late in the game. But you are right i did feel he was conservative and he threw a ton of check down passes, but thats what the Defense gave him and he went with it. Also, it could be a bit of nerves and pressure. The Cards fans have had nothing to cheer about for years and in probably the biggest game they ever played I'm sure he was a bit timid to call the "big" plays

    I didn't think it was a bad game overall. I'm just disappointed we didn't get to see the flea-flicker that's been their signature this postseason or at least a trick play of some kind. He didn't use the incredible talent he has to work with to his fullest potential. I don't blame him for not being super aggressive down the field against Pittsburgh's secondary, but he could have pulled a few more exciting plays out of the hat.

    The Steelers did a good job on Fitz early. They're not going to force it to him when he being successfully double covered. Haley didn't get where he was by doing stupid stuff like ignoring a player of Fitz's talent.
