When you think of all the technological wizardry NFL coaches have at their dispersal, we wonder sometimes if the next world-changing innovation will spawn from the mind of a Dorito-peppered slouch coach bunkered in his office at 4 a.m., watching game film and suddenly discovering cold fusion. They certainly put in the hours. Point is: NFL coaches have their finger on the pulse. Well, except for Herman Edwards.

Yes, Herm gleefully admits he knows nothing about them crazy Interwebs.

"Here's the concern -- in our society now, so many things come up on Web sites and Internet," Edwards said. "First of all, I don't even have the Internet. I wouldn't even know how to use it."

Finger on the pulse, that guy. We can understand, though, that a man like Edwards might have trouble with the Web, considering his struggles with, you know, clocks. The best way to describe, visually, Edwards' tenure as a football coach might, ultimately, be a blinking "12:00" on a VCR.

When I think of Herm I can only shake my head. What a dolt.

Gunther told Herm the internet was the place you learn you have been fired as head coach. Herm figures he can't be fired if he doesn't have that internet thing.

My first inclination was that he was full of it... but maybe he really is that out of touch.

Remember last year when he didn't know we had made the playoffs, until his wife told him?

He is strange, very strange.
