Surely you didn't think that with the roster we had that this was possible.
This was not a good roster. And most of that blame can be placed at the feet of Carl Peterson. Yes, the Chiefs have had three drafts between 2006-2008 to resolve that problem. But #1 - given reports of the power struggle in KC, it sounds like Peterson was overruling Herm on a lot of personnel decisions; and #2 - It is a huge expectation to expect a coach to completely turn around a team with only 3 years of draft picks (2 of those picks being #20 or lower) and no elite free agent acquisitions.
This is the absolute definition of trying to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.
