They're not yelling at Solari because he's up in the box. Dick Curl is the man on the sideline relaying the play to the huddle. Hre doesn't have veto power- this is a figment of Whitlock-encouraged imaginations.

If Herm is not into airing it out, why did he draft Croyle in the first place. 2+2 does not =4 here

We did that by playing AROUND the offense, not through it.

It will not always be this way. There will be at least 5 new starters on O next year, and Croyle will have more experience. But that's the best way for the team on the road against a top 5 team until we can get to the offseason. This game proved it - it didn't disprove it.

I can't argue with anything you said Zouk.
My point was with 1:15 remaining and 3 TOs left, a FG is the difference in this game. If Croyle can get the team to the 30 yard line, we win this thing. Fact is, we'll never know.

Good point about the turnovers, though. If Terry doesn't let Brodie get whacked from the blind side, we win that game hands down.

Why? The Colts were without their top players. Why shouldn't KC be "in" the game when the Bolts were able to beat Indy?

You dont have the title ASST HC and not have veto power over the Offensive play calling. Asst HC is higher on the food chain than OC and DC....

You look back at Herms career what is the one constant since 03? Dick Curl and a sharply declining offensive schemes...

History isnt lying to us Zouk...

The Colts were up 2 scores in the 2nd half without Harrison against the best team ever just a few weeks ago.

Everyone knows it is much tougher to beat them in the RCA dome.

back to OL coaching as it's in need of retooling.

I am sure there are success stories out there, but I have never heard of an OL coach running the Coryell offense. There are so many moving pieces in the pro game, it just seem daft that an OL coach is going to be successful. Maybe its not Solari's fault. Maybe there's more to the story. We have 6 games to find out. As of now, this offense is, well, offensive.

That would most likely be a negative considering Clark Hunt is a gutless piece of garbage who is content with 7-9/8-8 seasons.

Really when did that start?

Yeah, that much is obvious after a couple of years. If he's a gutless piece of garbage, what does that make Lamar?

I want him to go more than the next guy but I wouldn't be surprised if he stays.

KCJohnny 11-19-2007 04:55 PM

The more I read the comments and the press, the more it looks like Herm, not Solari is to blame for this anemic offense. But Herm doesn't script the plays. Do you think Herm gives specific guidance like "run on first down" or general guidance like "try to establish the run in the first half, even if its tough sledding"?

i don't think Herm calls plays ...... but he sets the tone in practice and he sets the tone about what kind of offense he wants

Rausch 11-19-2007 05:16 PM

I think he'll get fired here and go coach the line for someone else...
