There's no other way to do historical analysis because it's BY DEFINITION not historical if it HASN'T HAPPENED YET.
That being said, yes I am rigid in my criticism of Vermeil. One playoff appearance and ZERO wins in 5 years is about as "black and white" as you can get.

If you recall in my post Marty and DV could have succeeded big time here, but my argument is CP was the common denominator why they didn't.
Marty was able to consistently make the playoffs each year with the Chiefs. A bad coach couldn't do that. DV took 2 different franchises to the SB and won one. He was able to take a below average KC O and develop it to one of the BEST the last 5 years, a Bad Coach would not be able to accomplish this.
Marty and DV were not failures as coaches here, CP failed them and the fans!
The fact that we have everyone pointing fingers at DV and Herm and comparing and contrasting their coaching ability and style is missing the big picture, and CP is laughing all the way to the bank while the "villagers" are chattering and arguing with each other like fools.
