It's remarkable to me that you keep singing the same bullshit tune.
What is also hilarious is that you keep banging the drum about how this team should have been gutted when Herm first got here. Herm KNEW the state of this team when he signed on. He knew how stubborn Carl was. You act like he was held hostage. He got himself in this mess and you want to keep making excuses about it.

Oh please. Carl Peterson got out of a relationship where he was in a practical lovefest with Vermeil. He showered him with players, respect, and the two clearly left on great terms. Herm walked into the Chiefs as great friends with Peterson. It certainly didn't seem that way when they left. Peterson had a reputation for giving his coaches what they wanted. So yes, I think Herm was very surprised when he learned that Peterson wouldn't do it.
And give me a break about the locker room being a country club. Even during a losing season, the players played their hearts out. You rarely ever see that. Nor do you hear a lot of stories about players bitching or doing stupid stuff off the field. Like I said, I think he assembled a pretty good, hard working group of kids. It simply amazes me how even on the smallest of levels, you outright refuse to believe that Herm did ANYTHING remotely positive for this team.
