How Herm Edwards evolved his offensive philosophy.

For as much shit as herm gets... People forget that he went from herm ball to allowing gailey to run the pistol. So he's right. He did adjust the offensive philosophy to the qb. That was an aggressive pass happy offense.

Sure, but it took him completely dismantling a championship caliber offense to realize that he needed to open up the offense, so he gets no points for installing the pistol offense with Thigpen. He should have left the offense well enough alone.

Before you start comparing them to the Saints, they averaged 36 attempts a game and scored on average 22 points a game in his 11 starts. For Herm that's practically Arena ball.

I never did. But the saints had drew Brees. The chiefs had tyler thigpen.

I'm merely pointing out that herm is being honest. He went against his offensive philosophy and let gailey do his thing. Which was the best scheme given the personnel and almost stole a few wins around a talentless offense with a bad qb.
