Do you prefer the "old"/Vermeil style or the "new"/Herm style of play?

He and his "style" failed in KC because he surrounded himself with poor DC's and poor assistant coaches and didn't fire those who weren't getting the job done.

I think Herm's "style" is a play not to lose style. I think Herm is complacent with that type of game.

DV also had alot more talent overall to work with in STL than in KC. YOu have to remember that prior to 1999, the Rams were awful almost every season from 91-98. They were always picking in the top 10.


The Chiefs on the other hand have never been truly awful in the CP era. He always has done "just enough" to get by and keep the fanbase excited, but not enough to get over the hump.
