Are people still happy with Krumrie?

[Chiefnj2]

I know most people were happy with Krumrie's hiring due to his play as an NFL player, his pre-draft workout and his Gunther-esque intensity. After 2 years, do you still think he's as good as a coach as you originally thought? A lot of young talent has been added to the line (a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round pick) and at least 3 free agents, yet the line still has some major problems consistently generating a pass rush and stopping the run. Is Krumrie another Gunther that requires 4 all star players to perform, or does he just need more time?

[Bowser]

Is it him, or his players? Either way, I wouldn't miss him.

[Hootie]

I don't think Chiefs fans are happy with anyone...shit we had a thread bashing Jared Allen the other day.

[Saulbadguy]

At this point I don't really think its fair to evaluate some of these guys. The players have obviously quit.

[trndobrd]

Defensive Line play has improved across the board from last year. Even the performance at the DT position, while not as consistent as it needs to be, has improved considerably.

Give him another year. The performance of Tyler and McBride in their second NFL season will be the indicator if Krumrie can coach or not.

I don't think they have sold out for Herm since day one.

[Chief Faithful]

I still think Krumrie is the best coach on staff.

why? Because he yells a lot?

If we're going to bash Herm, Solari and Gunther...why not bash Krumrie? We've drafted DL talent in early rounds two consecutive years and what has he done with them? Huh? Nothing.

Hali was a bust this year, Turk hasn't done shit, Tank hasn't done shit, those other guys aren't doing shit...Krumrie is as much of the problem as the rest of the staff.

Shouldn't the coaches take some blame if players quit?

[Hootie]

lets fire the entire coaching staff, bring in new guys, a new front office, everything...and then lets do it all again when that staff/FO goes 3-13 next year as well!

Your and idiot.

Hali a bust this year?

He has 6.5 sacks playing on a bad knee all year.

1.5 sacks less than his rookie year with 2 games to go.

Turk and Tank haven't played enough to be called busts.

But hey, bash away.

[RealSNR]

Why the hell are we talking about Krumrie? If we replace him at coach the line will STILL suck because of the other tard coaches. It takes more than one skill position coach to progress a team along.

If the players have quit, it's HERM'S fault first and foremost. THEN we'll worry about the other coaches. And even then, there are a couple offensive coaches as well as the LB coach I would take out before I worry about upgrading over Krumrie.

[StcChief]

IS he blocking and tackling. players quit

Sometimes anger clouds a persons vision of things both good and bad. If you could clear the anger from your mind it is easy to see Krumrie is a cut above the rest.

The previous DLine staff ran the players through drills, but didn't get down in the dirt and really teach them how to play the game instead players had to learn on their own. Krumrie is an over-achiever who knows how the game is played and he is teaching it to his players. That is why he should be kept.

His practices are much more than yelling. He teaches the players how to use their hands and he works it hard. The difference between the college game and the NFL is hand technique. He gets down on the ground with them and pushes them teaching proper technique with intensity and speed. Krumrie is the best coach on the staff.

Hali is no more a bust than Allen was his second year. Do you remember Allen getting benched because he was so bad at defending the run? Allen is now a complete player. Hali is way ahead of where Allen was his second year against the run and almost equal in pass rushing. There is nothing about Hali that is a bust.

Using Tank and Turk as rational to say Krumrie is a bad coach is ridiculous. They are performing well for rookies. They may not develop into pro-bowlers, but if anyone can teach them to step up their game next year it is Krumrie.

No matter how bad things look to you it is foolish to think everyone sucks both coaches and players.
