Blame anyone you want, it doesnt happen in New England, Carolina or Seattle just to name a few quality teams that don't have a problem with the clock. That is Herms and Herms alone.

I am not anti Herm Edwards. There are things I don't like about the hire. I don't like that we didnt spend enough time IMO talking to coordinators or even conteplating one. I don't like that we gave a draft pick for a guy that would have been fired and arguably might not have been our best option to begin with. I don't like the fact that he's a Carl guy that apparently is Vermielesk which I was never a big fan of to begin with. I want someone that kicks these guys in the ass. Now go ahead and fire away that that hasnt helped us on defense, but there is no denying that all of the remaining coaches in the playoffs command respect from their players with crying every damn time a camera is in their face....GOD I hated that about Vermeil. Maybe Herm can do that, but we shall see.
