Seriously, Herm has to go

[blaise]

I don't see the point in firing Herm now. If you fire him now then why did you let him do this whole "rebuilding" thing on the first place? When Carl and Chiefs management said ok to this rebuild they knew they would suck. Did they think it would be this bad? No, but the line between winning and losing in the NFL is fine. I don't see how going 2-14 is so terribly worse than 5-11. Teams can go from worst to first in the NFL, and it's not that rare for a team to win their division a year after sucking.
That being said, I think the notion of rebuilding is a sham. NFL rosters turn over so fast,75% of the guys will be gone three years from now so I don't think you can plan on just accumulating a bunch of talent. You just need to get as many good players as you can through the draft and free agency.
If the Chiefs had spent some of the money they still have under the cap, if they could have scouted the QB position better, if they hadn't been the only people on the planet not to recognize that Croyle was never, ever going to be an NFL QB, they could have won this division this year. Denver's not good. San Diego's not good. The whole rebuilding concept was a stupid sham. Detroits been rebuilding for years, what good does it do?

You should have stopped after the first paragraph....

Because teams that are run more poorly than ours can't rebuild properly, that doesn't mean it won't work. Several of the most consistent teams in the league right now went through a rebuild and did it correctly. And those teams are built for the long haul, not a one-year playoff anomaly in the midst of a decade of mediocrity...

Gailey was not in the locker room Sunday while reporters were allowed inside. Edwards didn’t address play calling or schemes during his postgame meeting with reporters, which occurred before Hali made his comments.
“You’ve got to be able to close the game out on both sides of the ball,” Edwards said. “We didn’t do that. That’s a tough one. In 30 years, I’ve never lost one like that.”
Hali said he hadn’t lost one like that in his three seasons, either. He said it should not have happened the way it did.
“It’s unheard of,” he said. “We beat those guys. They were not ready to play us. That’s how I felt.
“We had the game won.”


And there...it...was.


Infuriating! This Coach is a mother****ing JOKE.
