I could go on and on and on around the league. Every situation is different. I don't think you'd find anyone working in the NFL that would compare Herm Edwards to coaches like Frank Gansz, Frank Kush, Richie Kotite, etc. Edwards may not be a great coach at this point but when given adequate players, he's certainly average or slightly above.
The Chiefs were in dire need of rebuilding in 2006, yet the front office decided to continue their same ways until 2008. You can't get blood from a turnip.
And anyone that expected more than 3 wins from a team that just traded its best player and is playing 17 rookies was fooling themselves.

To be fair, this team could easily be 7-8 or 8-7 if they had a decent coaching staff, IMHO.
