Was Herm fired because Pioli wanted to or because of the pressure from the press?
This can be a better title:

Was Herm fired because Pioli thought it was the right time or because of the pressure from the press?

I have come across many articles that are reprimanding Pioli for keeping
Herm in the dark for so long. These articles surfaced almost all within 2-3 days from each other.

Now the question is. Was Herm fired because Pioli can't keep him waiting for so long and he got into hot water with the media or he planned to fire him that day anyway?

To me it seems that perhaps Clark told Pioli to either fire Herm or let him know what is going on.

Given how tight lipped Pioli & Clark seem to run things around Arrowhead, I don't think they give a shit what the press thinks or writes.

So no I don't think any pressure effected him at all.

Pioli doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who gives two shits what the media thinks. At least I hope so.

I agree. I think Pioli wanted Herm's thoughts and opinions (Really, shouldn't matter, but better to be prepared) on the players and such, one would suppose, before relieving him.

I'm sure he wanted to fire him a lot sooner, but wanted to humor Clark.
I also think Clark wanted Herm fired sooner too, but waned to humor Herm.

Pioli is going to do things in his own damn time and his own damn way.

I'm sure he's learned from Belichick that the press is irrelevent.

The press had ZERO influence on this decision and will continue to have the same amount of influence in the future.

Could you imagine trying to run an NFL franchise and giving any value to to the opinion of the uninformed press? Pioli has been trained by Parcells and Belichik...those two really have a soft spot for the media

This is what I was thinking earlier this A.M. Clark wanted to keep Herm. If it were Pioli's sole decision he would have been gone within the first few days. He is very intelligent and knew going in Herm would not be retained. But had to humor Clark. I disagree that Clark wanted to humor Herm as being the reason for the delay.

Yes, Pioli wanted to pick Herm's brain, but would have only taken a few days. Yes, his style is to be methodical, but not to this extent. I hope he didn’t tie his hands for finding a replacement … I know… I know … I know … guys like Pioli are very confident that they can still find the best coach.

And, he may have his mystery coach tucked away somewhere. So far, he still earns my full trust and I’ll be happy with his decision, but I think he let the best candidates get away. I’m not too happy with any of the ones the Star listed this A.M. Hate to say it but the Rat looks to be the best of the bunch???

Enough rambling … the good news …. HERM IS GONE!!! I say that because it was beginning to look like Pioli would be forced to keep him.

Herm was fired for being 15-33 in 3 years.
