Chiefs Getting rid of herm? Who we be left to tell the story? - Page 4

13and3 · 01-14-2009, 07:17 PM

Maybe I am missing something here, but how can he possibly evaluate all 10 or 20+ coaches on this team, in under a week. And if he fires herm and his whole staff, who will be around to say what really went wrong.

First and foremost he needs to be able to evaluate the current talent level of the team, he already said in he press conference that in order to be effective in this area he needs to not only see game film, but also understand what the coaches were asking them to do, how can he ask someone who is not around?

In my job everyday (I am a electrician) I am presented with some new task, and before I just jump in, I always stand back observe my surroundings; what are my hindrances, what can I use to my advantage, hell, what is the weather like. I take my time, make a good informed decision, and work efficiently a productively, that way I only bend pipe or run a wire once. And in the end the job is done well and in a respectable amount of time.

In the end you can’t be as thorough and calculated as he claims to be and not see this thing form every angle, before he takes action. It flies in the face of everything he and the patriots stood for. The old adage is correct measure twice and cut once

Exactly.

When asked to describe what impressed him about Herm, all Pioli could say was "his passion".

My Golden Retriever has a lot of passion as well... especially when it comes to drinking out of the toilet... doesn't mean I want her coaching the Chiefs.

"Oh, so you're saying we should just throw out everything in the house -- the diamond jewelry, plasma TV, furniture -- along with the banana peels and coffee grounds?"

Call me crazy but we just hired the hottest commodity on the market (for the first time I can remember) I am going to trust his judgment on how all this goes down.

People praise him and talk about how unreal it is to get him then pick apart whats going on in the next sentence.

I hate Herm too but if we keep him I will give it a shot. I honestly think he's gone though.

**DeezNutz** · 01-14-2009, 08:48 PM

I'll be here to tell the story.

If Pioli needs me, all he has to do is start a DeezNutz thread.

I understand what 13and3 is saying. I am guessing if there is a new coaching staff one of the assistants from Herm's regime will be kept on board and there will be other personel guys that will stay for the next year to ease the transition.

It is amazing how certain elements of the Chiefs fanbase are apparently too dumb to comprehend how a complete franchise overhaul works.

You don't want a "transition"... you don't want any link to the past failure. You want to completely blow up the franchise and start from scratch. That includes Herm, his miserable coaching staff... everyone.
