You know,when it comes to Herms coaching, I am just as frustrated as everyone else. But you have to admit, he did a fabulous job in the draft. I am content putting up with his coaching in the short term because his drafting will benefit this team for years to come. Besides, if the talent is there, they can overcome bad coaching. Look at San Diego last year. Norv friggin Turner got to the AFC championship game by riding that talented team. If the coaching doesn't improve, he will be gone soon enough.

I made the comment a while back, sort of like "can God make a stone so big that even he couldn't life?".... Can Herm make a team so good that even he can't screw it up?
It's incredibly hard to play his sort of game when you don't have the very best defense in the league and one of the better run games in the league. Even if we get both within the next couple of years, it's incredibly hard to win 3 or 4 consecutive playoff games when your philosophy is to
have a chance to win at the end.
Yesterday's game is the perfect example.... and had it been a playoff game, I know exactly what Herm would have said: "We had a chance to win, that's all you can ask for; we just didn't execute when we needed to". Who cares if you had a chance to be winning after 58 minutes...
