This is out of hand....the asinine irrational people in this thread are doing nothing but stirring the pot because, hey it's Kansas City, not an east coast fan base that will stand up for itself.Over the last 18 seasons, KC has had ONE season below 7-9, they are one of the top 5 winningest franchises, and you would think they were one of the five worst with all the stones being thrown at this team every season by people who post lies.
Stop it.Kevin - I visited that KC Chief site and I read through the recent 13 page "Would you Fire Herm" thread.... There's KC Fans that feel every bit the same about Herm as I do..... That he isn't and never was a Football genius - Never coached one side of the ball and is nothing more than a motivational speaker reliant on his assistants and GM to do all the dirty work - DO you hear any substance in his interviews???I like the Chiefs and have no ill will for that team - But, I'm fairly confident that Herm will never win a Super Bowl as a Head coach and as the years pass more and more KC fans will learn the truth.
So he may not win a friggin Super Bowl, neither did Marty and I would take him over 95% of the coaches in the NFL right now.Is it that NY fans are so high on their horse that they cannot be happy with multiple playoff appearances when there were years they had top 5 picks? Is that it....just plain unregulated arrogance? Because that is what it sounds like.
Again, Talk to other afc east fans who really miss Herm in NY.And I'd take Marty as well - He's coached and studied the game for MANY years - There's little comparison to Herm, knowledge and experience wise.I don't see why you use the word arrogance just because I have the opinion that Herm Edwards can't outcoach a flea..... It's just an opinion. Way back when the Jets hired Paul Hackett I remember, maybe not on this board, but a lot of KC fans swarmed Jet fans saying what a bum the guy was and that he'd frustrate us to all hell.. (was that arrogance or just sharing of opinions?) We dug up our Montana quotes and said, "Give the guy a chance".... That went on for about 2 seasons until we were ready to kill the guy - And, yeah they made the playoffs..... I see the same thing happening here.It's not like we're talking Bill Belichik who was a known Defensive genius... His specialty is rambling and motivating and I think that motivating shtick wears off real fast with players - Players want to hear about X's and O's to REALLY get motivated - Jet players are still being quoted about the Game plans and comparisons to the past regime how things are on a more Intellectual brand of football now than in the recent past..... At least KC will have room for coaching improvement and when it's all said and done, I say the next regime will look like geniuses.
