Herm was the worst. He ushered in this era of crapulence with his proclamation that we didn't have any need for one of the best offenses in the NFL. We lost our identity completely under Herm and we never recovered.

Everybody keeps bringing up the players we brought in under herm, but so what, it's not like we've actually done anything with those players.

Vermeil gets a B+ because at least we had a team that could legitimately compete for a championship. Herm, Haley, Crennel - F. F-. **** it. Z-.

At least you have named yourself approprately.

No way in hell that Dick's teams could legitimately compete for SBs with that sorry sack of shit defense.

This, with an average D, that team could have won it all

With merely a bad D, that team would have won at least one Super Bowl. Unfortunately, it was beyond bad - it was an abomination. I'll never forgive Vermeil for that.

And even then, if they'd played anybody in the playoffs but the Colts in the 2003 playoffs, they would have had an excellent shot. Just sucks that we ran into the one team that could match us score for score.

I named myself that to help me figure out who the cleverest of the clever folks with the bestest, most creativest insults were.

Our sad sack defense lost to what, the 2nd best offense in the league in the Colts? 13-3 that year, 10-6 the next and only a quirk kept us out of the playoffs? We absolutely were contenders, even with that mediocre defense. More to the point, we had refined a potent offensive system that we never should have throttled considering the current offense friendly state of the NFL.
