Last year we definately needed a WR and a LT and they went out and got 1 of each. After giving Solari a 2nd year they have moved on. I think that they expected much more from the OL than was produced for whatever reason. I will wait and see how they address this offseason. So far, in all fairness, the Chiefs have looked at and addressed the most pressing problems each of these last 2 years. You can argue that you don't like how they addressed them but they did address them. For years they had no D and didn't try to build one. Herm has at least done that. Did the rookie OC work out? No, but he sure looked like a good choice at the time and deserved a decent shot. Did a FA LT and the young OL guys work out? No, but again the steps the Chiefs took before last season were logical steps to fix a problem and unfortunately didn't pan out. 2 years isn't long enough to fix the problems the Chiefs had and throwing Herm under the bus after 2 years and starting all over again will just set them back another year or 2. As long as they keep seeing the problems and keep trying to fix them I'll keeping rooting for them to succeed.

I agree with this. The funny thing is, when they chose Solari as OC it was a popular choice here. People didn't want to lose the Vermiel offense and they thought making Solari the OC would be a great idea. Now many of those same people are pissed that Solari was OC and blame Herm for it.
You just can't please some people.
