Herm did fine on offense last year given the talent we had to work with.

We also didn't have the guards and centers to run up the middle 500 times..didn't stop him.

Shields and Wiegmann always worked better in space.

I never said 7 step drops. I just didn't want a 65-35 run difference with no passes down the field and "opening it up" consisting of running quick slants.

This is why I think Willie Roaf retired, he didn't need Herm's shit.

The Chiefs ran a balanced offense last year. They called both passing and running plays about 50 percent of the time. And as I've already pointed out, the notion that they didn't throw the ball down the field is a MYTH.

You lose.

Did you forget about the 6 times it happened in 2004?

The 4 times it happened in 2003?

The 7 times it happened in 2002?

Andy Reid was never a coordinator. You want to crucify him, too? He's been to a Super Bowl.

It was very predictable, more predictable than some high school and college teams I've seen, and as a professional team, you do lose.

Offenses are far to good now to think you are a legit championship contender scoring 20 a game.

How many times do we have to point this out:

Balance in the NFL consists of about a 55-45 Pass-to-run ratio

The Chiefs passed 450 times last year, ran 513...we didn't get sacked 63 times, so you're off there.

Every division leader last year, save SD, passed a lot more than they ran.

You're FOS.

I think that's where Hamas is mis-reading me.

I'm not saying scoring 16-20 is the goal for a Championship team.

But I am saying that if you can't STOP the other team from scoring 20 on average, you're NOT going to the Super Bowl, much less winning.

You can get by with an average offense and still win a Lombardi Trophy.

I can't think of a single team who won with a shitty defense......

I think people forgot to tell Herm and some people who support him....the game isn't played like it was when he played any longer. It is no longer the 60's teams pass a lot now and do score points at high paces.

So what are you trying to say - that Herm is really Andy Reid?

We were sacked 41 times. That means we called 491 passes. We ran 1004 plays. You do the math.

Certainly isn't 65-35. ROFL

I'll also point out that DV's Chiefs had nearly identical percentages in 2005, too.

The Rams I guess, even though they ranked well that year it was more due to what the offense set up for them.

The Saints could easily break that though. That offense is stellar, it's dynamic and basically can't be defended. It's better and more talented than anything Vermiel ever had here.
