Carl doesn't make sense to me, anyone else get this or him?

Chiefs Pantalones · 01-05-2006, 10:40 PM

Edwards is gone now, so why would we give up anything for him? Are the Chiefs that dumb? They know he's going to be released from his contract, meaning we won't owe them crap, and we are trying to work out a deal ahead of that time? Are the Chiefs nuts or something? I know people will say, "well, if Herm is released, then any franchise needing a head coach can get him." That is true, but if Herm really wants to coach here, he'll leave as soon as he's released from his contract, or fired or whatever, and get on a plane to KC to get interviewed and hired.

Why can't Carl make this simple and hire AS? He deserves a shot. Herm is so mediocre it's pathetic.

If you find an answer please let me know!

We should have just went with Saunders and if it did not work out, then Hire Herby once his contract runs out.

If Carl wanted Saunders, he wouldn't have even bothered talking with the Jets.

There's obviously something he doesn't like.

I just want this Herm thing done. He's the best out there right now and despite what I read on this board, I think we could do TONS worse than him.

If mediocrity is making the playoffs 3 out of 5 years and winning a road playoff game, then sign me up for it.

If we get Herm, fine, I just hope we don't give up picks for him, because he's not worth it.

I semi Agree.

I still want A.S to stay on as O.C

That's about as close to mediocre as you can get...

Any guesses on how those Jets teams would have fared if they were replacing San Diego in the AFC West the last five years?

I have no guesses, but I'd venture to say that the AFC East was tougher over the last 5 years over the AFC West. The SB champ came from the AFC East 3 out of those 5 years.

People are going to think I'm silly for thinking this, but as I drove through KC today and listened to the various sports talk shows, I got to wondering something. Knowing it's DVs last year, and knowing his situation in NY, also with us knowing that Carl has been watching Herm for a couple of years, could it be possible that Herm laid down on a few games to get his record where the Jets would consider letting him go?

Crazy I know, but it has had me wondering.

Unless he paid his players to hurt themselves and miss games, I don't think that's all that feasible.
