You think he was being facetious?

Yeah, genious, that's exactly what he's saying.

Defense wins championships. If you have a good defense, you don't NEED to score 30ppg.

The last 10 Super Bowl Champs allowed 15.1 points per game.

Which means they would have only need to score 16 a game to win.

Hell, we averaged a shade over 20 last year.

Would 30 points per game be nice?

Sure. Will we NEED 30 ppg?

Nope. Unless DV's been named coach and I've missed it......

hahaha

Because our defense looked so good matched up against other teams in preseason.

Herm's the kind of guy who on the first day of college philosophy, was assigned a project on Kant, and automatically blocked out every other form of philosophy he would subsequently be exposed to.

He's catastrophically stupid.

Perhaps it is stupid. Why wouldn't a coach welcome 30+ points of offensive output AND a stingy defense? It almost seems like Edwards doesn't want the offense to produce.

It's Marty Ball. We can win by putting 7 points on the board. LJ is the Chiefs.

Herm has no problem with an offense scoring 30 points.

Okay, but let's talk about the Chiefs' offense.

Well, if you look at the actual stats from last year Herm may be on to something. We scored and average of 20.7 points per game while giving up an average of 19.7 points per game. So, I think what he's trying to say is 21 pnts per game basically equals a perfect season. On average that is. So, we've got...uh...er... what I'm trying to say.....I mean what Herm's trying to say is 21 pnts a game = CHAMPIONSHIP.

It's all in the math people.

I think your topic starter would disagree...

Quote:

Now, our offense will have to gel. Will it be a slow-starting? I don’t know. We haven’t played yet. I’ll answer that after we play. When we score seven points I’ll say we’re slow starting. If we score 21 points, I’ll say, ‘whoa, we scored a lot of points.’ 21 points is a lot, 30 points isn’t a football game. That’s Arena Football. We’re talking about real football.”
In other words, Herman F**king Edwards doesn't know the difference between his elbows and his candy ass.

Just like it would be in good fun of the CEO of Coca-cola came out and said that they were going to add carcingenic compunds to their products, but still made sure they were below FDA mandated levels. He's damaging the perception of the team's chances among the fans.

How about that great Chad Pennington? :evil:

Let's go from Super Bowl XXIII-XLI

Teams with better O's than D's
San Fran X 3--Great offenses, solid D's
Dallas X3--Great Offenses, really good D's
Denver X2--Great Offenses, a workmanlike D
New England X2--and two really good offenses
Green Bay--Great offense, good defense
St. Louis--One of the best offenses in NFL history, opportunistic D
Indy--All time great O, poor defense
Washington--A great offense and a pretty damned good d

Teams with better D's than O's

New England, SB XXXVI
Baltimore, SB XXXV
Pittsburgh, SB XL
Giants, SB XXV



I'm not saying you don't need a good d to help you win, but people who think that defense wins championships are just clueless to the reality of the NFL.

Your best shot of winning is with a top 8 O and a top 15 D.
