I'm not going all "true fan" but I think we can compete this year, not for a Super Bowl but a wild card spot. And that beats 2-14. I think this coaching will make a big difference with this team. It didn't really have it here during the pioli era. We had it one year with weis on offense and then he left and we didn't play the easiest schedule the next 2 years, so we were ****ed. Now we have a competent and the best staff since the vermeil era. Wish we had a better QB obviously but let's see what happens. I think the D will be much improved and these players will be utilize correctly

It's hard to underestimate just how bad that coaching was last season, in my opinion.

How many times did Romeo respond to questions by simply saying, "I don't know," or " I'm not really sure.".

I like the guy but you could tell he had no business being HC and the rumor was he has been having additional health problems which I hope getting away from the obscene hours the NFL coaches put in will help improve his health. He kinda got sucked into coming back and I don't think had any keen interest in becoming the HC but did so bc the players responded and like him as the interim guy and he was being a team player for the organization. Apparently, he needed to finish out the season as head coach or it would have made a pretty negative difference in his NFL retirement, pension, and health coverage, and so Clark deferred on making a coaching change during the season- which I think is the loyal and right thing to do because we weren't going to right the ship anyway.

You can knock him and say he was a bad coach, but I don't think that's what he really wanted coming out of retirement, and the blame falls more to Scott & to a degree Clark for signing off on the move simply because Pioli wanted a familiar cronie he thought he could control as his puppet after Haley told him to **** off and started doing his own thing.

Ya, I don't get the misplaced hate. He was the one of very few that was very vocal in thinking the Chiefs needed to blow things up and toss aside old and out of their prime vets to focus on youth and new talent- something that was fought against by the front office looking to maintain the .500 hovering record bc of fear of a rebuild and a few shitty seasons, which we got anyway.

Maybe I don't want him on the sideline as my head guy on Sunday, but he's a lot better than most of the color and commentary guys at ESPN. Not to mention, he one of the few national guys that actually pays attention to what KC is really doing and still talks with many sources in the Chiefs organization still so he has a bit better understanding of their plan and process then most national TV and radio guys.

Perfect no, but what has he said lately or in a while that causes sure ire by some? His local segments in KC radio are more illuminating than most. Or, maybe people just want more Racin' Boys, Jim pushing his diet cookies, Smoke n BBQ, or Stan Weber droning on in his monotone boring segments -

Harlan is so busy and long removed he has no special insight anymore with the Chiefs, and Holtus is so ra-ra cheerleader that his credibility is crap because he overhypes the positive and is rarely critical of anything to the point that his opinion has the about as much bite and candor as a toothless $2 whore.

**** Herm Edwards.

**Rausch** · 05-01-2013, 03:21 AM

First: Herman Edwards was a horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE, HC in every area that matters. His team did not get up for big games (playoff or division) and he had no clue at all how to "manage" a game.

He had no ability to respond immediately to how the defense or offense ways playing. Complete disconnect in game. Horrible clock management (not just here but in NY as well.) Horrible "feel" for the game or what was or wasn't the right decision at the time.

That said, he's an excellent scout of talent. Always has been. He should be hired by someone right now. He's as ****ing far off the ranch as anyone can be but he knows players and knows how to find them.

I'd pay him top dollar to be our head of scouting (is that even a position? I'm not sure. But I'd make him the Tzar of that. You're the Tzar of scouting.)

I hate Herm for destroying one of the best offenses in the history of the NFL.

At that point it was rotten and full of teh 'mites and he just lit it on fire.

And he hired the best guys to fix it. He spent good money on it. He just woke up one day and realized he was Corey Haim...

Herm didn't destroy it. Injuries and age leading to the end of Trent Green, Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, Willie Roaf, and Will Shields, among others destroyed it.

that illegal hit on Gaither still fires me up.
Can't believe there wasn't a call; and or a fine.

if that shit happened to Manning or Brady there would probably be a flag, fine, and suspension for trying to kill the NFL's Golden Goose.

I disagree. Early on in one of his first interviews he was talking about the "Circus Offense" and he wanted it to be HERM'S team, not Dick Vermeils. He DID destroy the offense, without question.

Clearly, this is worth arguing...

This. Its death came in the preseason that year when Solari tried to pass to score a TD as time was running out of the first half and the ball was intercepted. The Chiefs came out in the second half and were a total run run pass offense and settled for field goals. KC ended up winning that game barely, and Herms mind was made up. He had proved his point to himself at least. He publicly called out Solari for his play calling afterwards saying things lime Solari was new and would get better...The Offense was never the same after that. Never.

This year, I just want to have fun watching the Chiefs on Sundays. Seriously, I can wait on the playoffs if they can make it so I care again.
