One more reason Herm pisses me off.

Change the ****ing offense, so that the capable players that you do have, no longer are suited for it. Brilliant

Casey is a great pulling center, but I agree he isn't suited for smashmouth football. I think we would be better suited spending the money elsewhere.

All one has to do is watch the games and look at the results.

How long did it take us to get a first down running up the middle against Indy?

Excellent point, Mr. HemiEd. You can probably add Trent to this list, as well. It's strange too, since It would probably be easier to find a serviceable RB who can pass block, catch, and run on the edges than rebuild an entire offense.

You would sure think so Fax, but then, it would still be DVs offense. The ego needs to be fed.

Yepski, Comrad. It occurs to me that I'll need to stock up on my inventory of Herm insults so that I'll have a full, four-year supply on hand.

Just in case we don't win a playoff game, you know.

Last time I checked Fax, he was able to supply a continuous inventory of ammunition. His strong suit.

Casey's not going anywhere for at least one year. There's too much rebuilding on the O line for the Chiefs to worry about, filling in for bad or retiring players, before they start replacing good players with better fits.

If Herm gets the guys he wants this offseason for the ugliest holes on the OL, look for Weigmann to be on the trading blocks in 12 months.

Nothing against you personally but we have maybe 3 players on offense that would merit a trade and Weigman is not one of them. Our offense = old and untradable with the exception of LJ, Gonzo and Waters.

Direckshun 02-05-2007 07:51 PM

No offense taken. I think it's a fair point.

Still not sure where that leaves Casey, then, because if Herm gets the guys he wants on O-line this offseason, there's little stopping him from upgrading the center position next year if he wanted. Maybe for a low-rounder draft pick? Not sure.

Of course, I've heard too that Edwards loves Weigmann, so I'm not sure he'll go anywhere.

That's beside the point. The question I had is where the claims that Wiegmann is not suited for this offense originated from and who on the staff implied that he might be gone soon when his backup has yet to play an NFL football game.

Thus far, I can only deduce that this is a rumor similar to Jason Dunn playing left tackle.

I'd be willing to bet that if you went up to Herm or any other offensive assistants and asked them about this rumor they'd laugh in your face. There are about 30 other teams who would love to have Wiegmann at center. It would be nice if one of the journalists would bring this question up at the next press conference.

B_Ambuehl,

Wiegmann is perfectly suited for the offense the Chiefs have run the past 5 years. He's not suited for the offense they'll run beginning next year, a power running game with play action passing. I think the Chiefs would like to run the Bears offense and defense, only executing the offense much better.

If those 30 teams would be willing to give up a draft pick, I think the Chiefs would be interested.

Say the fans right? The problem is oftentimes the fans tend to know little about what they speak of.

That is apparent if you look to the roots of the chicago offense.
