Herm only had one top 5 draft.

This tells me all I need to know about Herm Edwards:

Year 1: 9-7
Year 2: 4-12
Year 3: 2-14

Not only that, but in the 2-14 season, after every loss he seemed very happy and satisfied in his post-game press conferences. If he had melted down after a loss like Dennis Green or Jim Mora I would have respected him a lot more. At least it would have looked like he cared.

Not surprising seeing the Herm hate stoked in this thread. He never did get a fair shake from the majority of the fans. But the truth is that he supplied this team with today's leaders. He put the young guys out there, knowing they would make rookie mistakes. And now that experience is really paying off. Everyone saying "F Herm" should stop and think about what this team would be like without Charles, Bowe, Flowers, Hali, Carr, etc.

This.

:LOL:

Whew...sure glad we had Herm. :rolleyes:

I think Herman ****ing Edwards deserves credit for getting Clark Hunt to buy into the idea of rebuilding this team through the draft, a plan I wholeheartedly agree with.

I also agree that he deserves credit for getting those young guys on the field and getting them that experience.

But, at the end of the day, the guy was a mediocre coach who didn't prepare his team, who couldn't coach a pop warner team on game day, and never held anyone accountable.

Had Lamar Hunt actually cared, we might not have ever had to go through the shit we've had to go through over the years.

Toll booth change collector. He clearly has the demeanor for it.

Herm left the Jets in shambles right after he left. as he did with the Chiefs. the man is a douche and a fraud, he shouldn't get any ****ing credit.

On the flip side, Haley has made the Chiefs a respectable organization again. he should get all the credit.

Wasnt there talk that herm wanted to blow the thing up after his first year? The team was old and needed to be rebuilded but Carl wouldnt let him do it? Not defending Herm as a coach but he inherted an abomantion of a team that was old as ****.

What I dont get is Herm being credited for bringing in talent in the draft. did he really tell Peterson what to do on draft day? was Peterson that dumb too?

Strongly agree. He was a scout as a Chief before being the NYJ head coach. I really thought he did a great job of bringing in player. Just couldn't coach them.

Peterson always deferred to his coaches regarding the draft.

That's why our drafts sucked so hard while DV was the coach.

What we heard is that Clark Hunt took the final say in the draft out of Carl's hands and gave Kuharich that responsibility, though no source would confirm this.

None of Carl's drafts, including those that involved Herman ****ing Edwards as a scout, wre worth a damn.

That's not to say that we didn't get some good players through the years, but each indivdual overall draft was mediocre, at besst, until the last draft, the one that rumors had Kuharich responsible for.
