When this team runs a draw play or screen on third and long every time for the first three quarters, that's Herm. When they rely on the secondary to make a big stop in a passing situation, that's Herm. We hired the most conservative coach in the league. His team is not only playing badly, they are boring to watch.

We are to the point when we are faced with a big division rival with a new coach that the owner was having doubts about in the off-season, and we can't beat that team at home, its time to make a change. This game has got to be a make or break for Herm Edwards. If you can't win this game, is it realistic to think we can't win any?

LMAO

THIS game has got to be a make or break for Herm? This one? This one single game?

We're rebuilding. Everyone from here to Mars expects us to be bad while the young guys get some experience.

I realize it's hard to have patience with your favorite team, but come on... it's the second game of the season.

Time to join the sentiment of this thread. No way we should look this bad against the Raiders at home. No excuse whatsoever. We played the stinkin' Pats closer than this at their house. Inexcusable!

You are a great poster, Mr. KC Fish. And knowledgeable in the ways of the pigskin.

Nevertheless, there are aspects of this performance that are telling. And they're telling me that Herm is the king of the morons. Crown his ass.

I give up. To have this kind of performance and see players laughing it up on the sideline while we're getting shut out at home against the Raiders early in the 4th quarter is representative of the coaching staff IMO. I'm deserting the Hermines. It's time to move in a new direction. Again.

I'm at a complete loss of words ... was that a pro game i just watched .. utterly embarrassed to be a chiefs fan!

Anyone who didn't think this kind of performance was possible is fooling themselves. We are a crappy team.

This will happen again. This is rebuilding. We have a long way to go.

What does rebuilding have to do with constantly running against 8-9 man fronts. Whether Herm has had veteran team here, or a young one, he constantly runs against stacked lines. This is not rebuilding, this is incompetent game-planning and coaching.

Heh. 52-62 and sinking like a stone. If we don't beat Atlanta we may not win until November.

When we have half of an offensive line, you can't do whatever you want to do with playcalling. It won't work.

Do you expect us to drop back and throw all day when McIntosh is pushing his defender towards the QB?

Please feel free to come up with a successful offensive gameplan with the consideration that we have < 2 seconds to get rid of the ball.

I'm not upset about the loss as I have given in to the rebuilding agenda Hermie is selling. What choice do we have to be honest? I don't think Hermie or CP really care what we as fans think.

But that's not my point. My point is even after throwing in the towel and calling this season a rebuilding year is the play calling and overall coaching below terrible? Why on first down do we run it up the middle, again and again. For no gain. Again. In my opinion a rebuilding year should still have positive plays for yardage down the field. The rookies are learning nothing but how to lose and the vets are going to be frustrated or worse, injured. Hermie just loves to run players into the ground. The "rebuilding" process needs to start with a much better head coach than the Chiefs have now or it's going to be more of the same for years to come.

Half the teams in the league have below-average offensive lines. Yet only the Chiefs consistently run against 8 man fronts. Screen passes and quick slants are two options most coaches use.

Statistics are great....

Half the starting QBs in the league are worse than the other half.....

Ummm...that was my point. We are hardly the only team in the league that doesn't have a great O-line.
