1. The Chiefs owe Herm 4 Million in '09.
2. A new HC will run you 2 to 4 Million in '09.
3. Everyone seems to think that Scott knows what he is doing as a GM.
4. Scott has Herm and his assistant coaches under contract.
5. Scott will not make a change JUST to make a change. HE will hire a guy he wants.
6. Why would Scott spend 6 to 8 million (Herm's money + the new guy's money) on the HC position next season for a guy he really didn't want? You will also have to figure in the expense of two coaching staffs (guy's under contract + new staff).

Conclusion: Don't fire the guy you have to pay anyway until you are sure (with signed contract) you have the guy you want. That is the way all good business are run.

Then he needs to come out and say Herm is the man. It is that simple.
