***The Official HERM MUST BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY Reasoning and Statistics Repository***
 
Much like the offseason moves repository htis used to do, I think we should use this as the official listing of all the reasons Herm should be fired immediately. Feel free to contribute your thoughts.

I robbed some of the stuff in Rainman's Record thread here

General Ineptitude
2-14 in 2008
4-12 in 2007
2-23 in last 25 games
15-34 (30.6 winning %) in 3 years as Chiefs HC
56-77 (42.1 winning %) Career
Longest losing streak in Chiefs history.
Worst season record
Most losses in a 2 year span (26) in Chiefs History.
Most losses at home (7)
Most points allowed in Franchise History
Herm said "Practice always goes well. It's those games we have trouble with."

Personnel Moves
Croyle as QBOTF with no backup (I'm looking at you Huard)
Alfonso Boone at LDE...Seriously
Moving Hali to RDE
Ty "your damn shoes" Law
The Medlock Fiasco
Novak over Barth
Huard started 2007
Damion McIntosh at RT over Taylor and Richardson
Adrian Jones at RG over anyone else on the roster
DJ at MLB
Jeff Webb continues to be on the roster
Gun remains employed
Krumrie remains employed
Kris Wilson at Fullback
Boomer at Fullback

Game Management
Wasted 2 timeouts in 1 play
Lost 8 games by 7 points or less in 2008
Herm decided to punt to Peyton Manning with 3:30 left on THIRD DOWN instead of seeing what his appointed QBOTF who played well to that point had.
Herm pulled a similar move with the game winding down with the Saints in 2008

Offensive Dumbassery
416 carries for LJ
No first downs in the first half of the Indy Playoff game
We ran the option...WTF?!

Defensive Dumbassery
NOTE: Herm was brought in as a defensive guy
Fewest season sacks in NFL history
Most points yeilded in 1 game by a chiefs team (54 vs Buffalo)
Chiefs gave up 2543 rushing yards in 2008
The return of the 32 D

Fire Herm now, and watch season ticket sales spike.

Agent V 12-29-2008 09:54 AM

But he's such a nice guy. Let's keep him.

You bet your ass they'll spike.

Remember, he also punted the ball to Drew Brees in the same fashion as Peyton Manning.

Nice guys finish at the bottom ... Herm is a nice guy but that don't win games ...

alpha_omega 12-29-2008 09:57 AM

These are all good reasons, but i only need one:

2-23.

BigChiefFan 12-29-2008 09:57 AM

You had me at hello.

Reerun_KC 12-29-2008 09:58 AM

I would rep you AGAIN, but I have to spread it around first...

He also kisses the media's ass, so that helps his cause. I have trouble believing a man who blames his players and NEVER takes a shred of responsibility is a nice guy.

Stop it! Just stop

YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never seen a team so unable/unwilling to make halftime adjustments. And if they DID make adjustments, they were consistantly out-adjusted by the opponents.

15-34 for his career here. Gunther Cunnignham won more games in two seasons than Herm did in three.

Bowser 12-29-2008 10:21 AM

And of course, 810's streaming link crashes just as Petro's show is ready to go on air....

Chief Chief 12-29-2008 10:33 AM

Yeah, let's fire Herm and hire Marinelli...whoa! Mangini's on the loose!...no, wait - Crennel's now available...

Chief Pote 12-29-2008 10:49 AM

The local newspaper in Columbus had a quote from Herm on the top of the sports page.

"Practice always goes well. It's those games we have trouble with." Herm Edwards, coach of the 2-13 Chiefs, who end their season Sunday playing the Bengals.
