What chance does Todd Haley have with Cardinals?
What chance does Todd Haley have to be hired as head coach by the Arizona Cardinals?
Well, maybe not a good one, based on the demands Haley made to the Cardinals during his interview last week.
I have been told that Haley told Cardinals owner Mike Bidwill what he wanted and what he needed to become their head coach. And he set the asking price very high.
Haley apparently did this because he is happy in his role as offensive coordinator with the Steelers and doesn’t want to leave unless an offer is almost too good to pass up.
Haley has a nice relationship with Cardinals owner Mike Bidwill, going back to his days as the team’s offensive coordinator under Coach Ken Whisenhunt. And he is a former head coach with the Kansas City Chiefs, which gives him a little more bargaining power.
But he has repeated many times how happy he is to be working with the Steelers and back living in the area where he grew up. Haley’s dad, Dick, was the Steelers’ long-time director of player personnel who helped build the franchise’s first four Super Bowl teams.
