Good thing you weren't listening to 610 last night when Nick Wright was playing tape of damn near every player in the locker room singing Herm's praises. Just saying.

That's why players don't run the team. I remember when Joe Bugel was popular with the Raiders players.
The players know two things: 1) Don't throw the current coach under the bus unless you want to be labeled a malcontent by the next administration 2) The next coach will more than likely bust the players asses with hard-nosed practices and get rid of this buddy buddy soft Herm crap we've seen the last few years. This really all depends on who the next GM is, so I wouldn't start freaking out about Herm until then. I know of very few "outside the organization" GM's who can bring a "fresh outlook" to the franchise who would want to go into a season with a head coach entering a lame duck season. Could happen, but we'll see... |

BTW, grabbed this quote from right before Herm exited the Jets:
"I would think the guys will be disappointed that Herm leaves," center Pete Kendall said. "Whoever comes in is going to inherit a locker room of good guys, of pros, of guys who understand this type of stuff is part of the business." |

1. Herm is fired 2. Herm coaches next year as a lame duck 3. Herm receives a contract extension Why would a new GM want #2? No new GM wants the potential for a meltdown in his first year. If next year Herm was going to be coaching without a contract, it made no sense to fire Carl. It's immediately putting the new GM in the hot seat. |

Which is one of the reasons you shitcan Herm. These players are too comfortable, imo. It was this way prior to Carl's arrival. When that rat Lowery and a few others went to the owner and lobbied for Mackovic to be canned because (*gasp) Gansz was going to be hired away by somebody else. "And we love him".
This franchise is so f'ed up. I can only hope and pray that Clark puts the correct people in place to build it right. |

The bottom line is that the roster was in complete and utter shambles and while Herm obviously knew this (and went to Clark about it), Peterson just went about his business, ignoring the advice of the people that worked for him. Now, he's out. Believe it or not, Herm is well-respected among the coaching community and I think you'd have a hard time finding someone who's just willing to fire him without performing adequate due-diligence. And that due-diligence just might take an entire season, namely the 2009 season. It's not as if Herm was hired to coach the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants or Carolina Panthers - teams that are loaded with talent. |
