Herm took over an ancient team and made it young
but he still practiced and trained like an old team -slacked off for old frames
Gonzo and Waters knew that was going to change and wanted the hell out
considering LSU players seem to be soft Herm was just all wrong

There was always talk of that but who knows? That might have been fueled some by the "Hard Knocks" stuff showing Peterson favoring Huard and Herm favoring Croyle in 07.

Actually, there was an article by somebody (Gretz, maybe?) that discussed this in some detail. And another article about how Herm used to fall asleep watching film on kids. I wish I'd saved them when the subject reemerges about how great a drafter Herm is/was.

Personally, I'm unconvinced that someone as inept as Herm in every other conceivable category of existence could possess the savant-like ability to draft well. It's far more likely that Bill Kuharich had vastly more input and gave Herm a short-list of players. Certainly, in his interviews, Kuharich was extremely knowledgeable when it came to each selection.

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

I hated Herman ****ing Edwards, as you well know, but I like to think that I can be fair and objective.

I remember Herm Edwards saying that he never watches the Super Bowl, and that he prefers to go see a movie instead. I guess he figured there was nothing he could ever learn by watching the two best teams play each other.

He may not be the worst coach ever. He may not even be the worst Chiefs coach ever. But he was fucking horrible.

Wow. Just...wow. I bet he gets bummed watching SB highlights for his broadcasting career. Oh wait; he spends his prep time coming up with great stuff like "Herminated".

Yeah.

Dear Herm,

Results talk and your bullshit walks.

Sincerely,

Everyone

Herm takes credit for the sun rising every morning.

I'd rather that Herman never step foot in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Nebraska or Iowa.

It would be nice if we could even block the air waves so his image couldn't even get back in.
