That's it. I'm freaking done with these idiots. - Page 11

**Rain Man** · 11-18-2007, 07:33 PM

Back in the 1970s, our teams were bad. They lost games. They got soundly beaten by opponents. But you know what? I could live with it. The teams back then at least tried to win.

Now? I love this team. Love it. We've got massive talent on defense. We've got top-notch players on offense. We've got a new quarterback who can win, and we've got a potential superstar at wide receiver and legitimate superstarts at tight end and running back.

And we've got a coach who is biggest freaking idiot this side of Paul Hackett.

The last time I was this mad about a loss was against Indianapolis in 1995, when we lost home field in the playoffs because of the worst game plan, or rather lack of a game plan, in football history. And now we're repeating it on a weekly basis.

It's the fourth quarter. The score is tied. The best quarterback in the game is on the other sideline. And we freaking concede a drive? We don't even TRY to get a first down? We punt the ball to the most productive offense of the decade? Both teams had one opportunity to win the game, and our stupid, idiotic, moronic, imbecilic coaching staff VOLUNTARILY GAVE OUR CHANCE AWAY! THEY SAID, "WE DON'T WANT TO TRY TO SCORE, SO LET'S PLAY FOR A TIE AND PUNT IT PEYTON FREAKING MANNING." What sort of intellectual plant life would you have to be to do that? They voluntarily reduced our chances of winning to zero, and for no reason.

AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH! I'm so mad about this that I can't stand it. They do this every freaking week. We have perhaps ten chances to score in a game, and they VOLUNTARILY give up on half of them! How does someone do this and keep their job? If I owned that team, that freaking coach-in-name-only would not get on the plane to come home. He would pay his own way back, and I would mail his office stuff to him in a box. I'd give the Arrowhead guards pepper spray and a picture of his unibrowed visage of confusion.

I can't do this any more. Just can't. This was the last straw. This was stupidity at it's finest. This was building the freaking Egyptian pyramids of stupidity. This was stupidity that will stand as a shining example of the art for the next four thousand years. Stupid scholars will study this game plan and write dissertations about it. It was miss-the-$100-question-on-Who- Wants-To-Be-A-Millionaire-after- using-all-of-your-lifelines stupid.

This is a good team. This is a strong team. This team could be very, very good if they were allowed to be. And you know what? Just trade them all. Trade them and stock up draft picks for a possible time when the stupid ownership of this team finally sells it to someone who will fire the stupid Haile Selassie president-for-life general manager and hire someone who will in turn fire the stupid "I think we get points for close losses" coaching staff, and then when those things happen maybe we can use those picks to field a competitive team. Until Herman Edwards is gone, and all photographs of his slackjawed RCA-Victor-Dog-Looking-At-Victrola face have been burned, just pile up picks and use semi-pro players, because the end result will be the same.

If I was Tony Gonzalez or Derrick Johnson or Jared Allen, I would go to Clark Hunt's office with a sleeping bag and I would not leave there until there's a regime change. Don't waste your career playing for piece of garbage idiot like Herm Edwards who can't even fathom trying to win a game.

Three drives! At least three drives where we just intentionally folded up. Didn't even try! "Eh, who cares? Just run for a few yards and punt it. Who cares?" Did these people never watch Joe Montana in the Super Bowl against Cincinnati? Do they not understand that the team with the most points wins? Where is the understanding here, people! Where?!?!?!?!

I HATE YOU, HERMAN EDWARDS! HATE! HATE, HATE, HATE! No, no. It's more than hate! Far more than hate. It's outright despisal!

YOU PLAY...TO WIN...THE GAME! YOU PLAY...TO WIN...THE GAME!

I don't know if I can communicate this any more clearly. This coach has to be removed from power, using any means possible. I'm 44 years old. I don't want to have to concede five more seasons of giving away wins while I wait. He has to go now! NOW! NOW!!!!

I think the most surprising thing to me today is that he changed his first name to Young. "Young Brodie Croyle is coming to the line." "Young Brodie Croyle is handing off on 2nd and long." "Young Brodie Croyle is tossing a short give-up pass on third down to position for the punt."

**Smed1065** · 11-18-2007, 10:18 PM

I was expecting to see POPeye when they finally showed it.

Maybe it was the angle but given the announcers did not even know a first down or not, no surprise.

Maybe the team forgot to pack the spinach?

Instead of running into that dam brick wall on every running play, why not just play action pass and pickup 5-7 yards and move the chains? then let Brody try some shots down field.

EXACTLY! It's not that we lost it's how we lost IMHO! Damn give the kid a shot from time to time. i hate this coaching staff at this point, they are absolutely losers....Wow, novel idea ( let Croyle throw the ball ) not just wr screens... I expected us to lose but damn don't just give it away...Defense played lights out...

Herm thinks this way, too. Had we done everything you said, Manning needs to covert that last drive to a TD and score one more TD for them to win. He would have done it. I never once thought we were going to win the game because we never once looked like we were going to take it from them. We were the canvas for Peyton's comeback win. You have to take it.

I heard Carl put a hit out on Lenny.

Solari should forfeit half his check to JA and the other half to a downs syndrome home.

Zouk · 11-18-2007, 10:23 PM

If Herm gets fired, we'll never get a coach who can bring D like this again.

He set out to fix the D first (which was terrible when he arrived, we remember) and he fixed it.

This offseason, he will overturn the O to be 1 that can consistently get 20-24 points. If we have that, we'll get home playoff games.

Harrison didn't play in the Pats game either, and the Colts almost beat them. I don't think we should be minimizing what the Chiefs accomplished today. We're on the way, I can see what we're building. Taking this talent into Indy and having a chance to win is a big deal.

It shouldnt be about having a chance to win. It should be about ripping the other teams heart out and taking the game from them.

At least, I could comfort myself in knowing we just didn't have very good players back then. We've got some players now, we just have a coach who's in over his head and is coaching like he's afraid.

Well, he should be afraid. Keep coaching like this and you WILL be looking for work, bastage!

Like anyone will hire him as a HC after we dump him.

My friend the dirty secret is we're not good enough talent-wise to beat the Colts on the road yet. We almost did it with smoke and mirrors. The O will be better next year, and you'll see how wrong you were about what we're building. Today made it even clearer to me where this is going, and getting Croyle's feet wet to play meaningful football on the road is an important step.

Dude, Herm isnt the end all of Defense...

There are plenty of people out there than can coach better defense..

We arent even a top 10 defense...

Get over it, Okay? It is just sad watching you lower yourself to this level...
