Food for thought: Firing Carl and/or Herm after one real rebuilding year will be a discouragement to future Chiefs GMs and coaches to pull that rebuilding trigger. I think it makes sense to give them a second year.

No way. A legit GM ain't gonna' be running scared from day one. A legit GM will be arrogant enough to believe he's better than Carl (and 90% of the possible GM's would be correct in this belief). These guys don't get to where they are in the NFL world by being timid about their abilities to do more than their predecessor. I don't buy this argument. Carl/Herm are horrible and most new GM's/Coaches will believe they are better.
