If Herm is fired Carl is liable to hire someone worse. Getting rid of Herm without Carl is futile.

Carl fired Frank Ganz.

Herm is going no where and neither is King Carl at least until after the 2009-2010 season at the earliest.

I honestly don't understand all of the Herman Edwards hate. This team is headed in the right direction because of his plan for the team. Are there things about him that are annoying and that he could improve on? Sure. But the program is clearly on the upswing.

There are only three drafted players from the Vermeil era still on this team. LJ, Colquitt, and DJ. Herm was handed a squad of old and shitty players and the team had no direction. Now that Turk and Tank are contributing in a big way, it would be hard for any team to match what he has accomplished with the last three drafts.

More importanly, drafted players don't rot on the bench the way they did with Vermeil. Of course a lot of that had to do with how lousy we drafted under DV. But the point is that, like Marty, Edwards can coach them up and get them ready to play. And the players seem to like playing for Herm.

So while there may be some legitimate complaints about his game day philosophy, his overall approach is solid and is proving to be effective, IMO.

Herm is a ridiculously bad game day coach, that wants to utilize an offensive philosophy that is stuck in 1962, he is frankly stuck in the era he played in, they talk about the game passing someone by, here's a good example. He refuses to adapt to what the league has become.

That's why Herm has alot of hate, his idea of playing young players and wanting to build through the draft is fine, but the way he coaches games is completely out of touch.

In Gunther's case...it was obvious to everyone.

The teams Gunther coached were already in disarray from the meltdown this team had in '98.

IMO coached well with what he had to work with. Those 2 years were terrible and we really didn't deserve to have a record like we did (16-16)

What I don't understand is why people think this???

Never have I heard anything that supports this. Nor have I ever heard of any player saying that they don't like playing for a certain coach.

This statement is just based off of the fact that Herm once played in this league, therefore people assume that he's a "Player's Coach."

Truth is hes a huge ****ing idiot and I can guarantee that no one likes playing for a proven loser. Eventually (and just like last year) this team is going to give up on what he's trying to do because it's simply not working.

Herm goes out the door it may leave Dick Curl in control.

don't think so. Curl is here because Herm needs him.......which speaks volumes in my opinion
