And there is such a thing as meaningless wins. You always try to win with what you have, but sometimes you make decisions that make your team worse short term to build for the long term. Herm could have brought in Pennington. Would that have made people happier? Because that gets you 4-6 wins. Croyle and Thigpen were terrible, but the one time in history we have a coach who insists on playing youth over mediocre veteran qbs... Yeah, it led to losses. But I'm still glad we made the call.

Herm took a top 5 offense in 2005 (that he said he wouldnt mess with) and turned it into a carbon copy garbage predictable offense that the Jets had. the Jets won despite Herm. any drive that ends in a kick is a good drive.
How anybody can defend that guy after that Indy playoff game is beyond me. he was a fraud that got exposed and now hes out of football.
