Dungy gets to Indy and discovers all these weapons and liked it. Maybe that's Herm's challenge: he's never had a really potent offense (unless you count the one that took the fiel vs Cincy in September 2006)...

you make a terrific point. I would repp you if you knew how.
Maybe herm just needs to 'see the light' so to speak. Dungy was known as a defensive minded coach until he got to indy, and had harrison, manning, and james on offense. He discovered what hopefully herm will discover, scoring points and lots of it, is a good thing. Going out there on offense with the intent to score touchdowns, not field goals, should be on the teams mind first and foremost. Thats what is on the patriots minds, there D is holding up just fine, and heres the thing, Our d is as good if not better than there D is. Opening up our offense can only help our solid defense that much more.
And We have had some close games that we should have won. Greenbay comes to mind, so does the denver game, the bears, the texans, and ofcourse the colts game. All games WE COULD HAVE AND PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE WON, regardless of who our starting QB was (evem though croyle is much better). This team is better, much better, than our current record indicates. We could just as easily be 8-2 or 9-1 right now.
I agree with redbull on alot of things in regards to herm. And I do blame yesterdays loss on him. The packers game, we had the ball on offense, we were up by 6pts, we run the ball 3 times in a row, and then punt. Farve takes his team down and scores..... We have to be more versatile on offense, we should be a pass first offense, run second. Our OL is clearly better at pass blocking than it is run blocking. We are hurting ourselfs. Maybe herm isnt the answer in the longterm. But he has brought defense back to the cheifs. BLAH..
