Disagreement is what makes the BB an interesting place.

I like Gunther and I believe he is exactly what the ’99 Chiefs needed. A tough, old school bird to restore a sense of team and end the showboating thug mentality that had crept in during the waning days of Marty’s regime.

Since then, Gunther has made many mistakes, which I would forgive as the rookie blues. But he has not learned from them. Herewith a few examples:

· He refuses to take the preseason seriously. As a result, we were not ready to play Chicago last year and we were not ready to play Indianapolis this year. The stunning number of dropped balls by the starters says to me that we must use preseason for more than player evaluation. The starters need more preseason PT to sharpen their skills in real game situations.
· He was hopelessly out-coached by Holmgren in the first Seattle game. He refused to alter his non-plan for the game and that game was also lost. Those losses are directly attributable to Gunther.
· He continues to shuffle RBs in and out of the game, refusing to allow any runner to get into the flow of the game. The Committee is a bad idea and Gunther clings steadfastly to it.
