What a difference a year makes

He wouldn't have failed. In theory he would have gotten fined for being overweight. He would have been told by Herm to not worry about paying it though. Then he and Ty Law would have went to the buffet together.

This failed physical happens to Herm and Terry and what would the reaction be? I am sure no where near what is coming out today

i completely agree with this statement. this is the tangini honeymoon period and they basically get a free pass for this season. there will be a lot more scrutiny if they **** the bed this season.

I'm not sure I get this. What is the problem with what Mangini/Tanny did? They made a trade and a player failed the physical. It happens fairly often. Should they have gone through with the deal and had another RB that will be on the IR/PUP all year?

Who exactly is giving Tangini a free pass for this season?

The press is already lighting the torches and grabbing the pitch forks

and marching on the castle.

The majority of fans on the boards like what he is doing so far but I

can tell you this if they lose the first game 27-0 the axles on the bandwagon

will break and some will fall off.

Thread title: Herman Edwards is a HUGE mistake!

OK, sorry but I've bitten my tongue long enough and everyone is entitled to vent and say their thoughts correct? Simply put I don't think Herman Edwards is a head coach. I never liked him in New York and I was sick to my stomach when Carl hired him here. The man knows only one thing and that's defense (and that's questionable)…

…in this mornings paper Herm was quoted as saying that Brodie Croyle reminded him of NY Jets quarterback Chad Pennington... :shock:

… No matter what anyone says it was a huge mistake to bring Herman Edwards here as a Head Coach. HUGE! He is to meet with Willie Roaf next week to try and get him to un-retire. That's BS! In as much as it pains me to say it, I say let Willie go. He has absolutely unequivocally earned the right to go out on top. No one on the team with the exception of T-Rich will be missed more but let him go in peace and enjoy the rest of his life while he can still walk…

--------------------------------------------

… Risk Free football on offense will not win a superbowl. Fortune favors the bold, and when Herm says 'risk free', it makes me nervous. I just don't think you can contend with that mentality….

--------------------------------------------

I'd say the tide is starting to turn against Herm a little bit. For a while, I felt like it was just me kicking the guy.

Anyway, I've said before, I don't think Herm did anything to justify getting this job. He has a losing career record, and owes his only significant success to taking over a Parcells playoff team and running it into the ground over the course of five years. Nice. Now he's taking an almost-playoff Vermeil team, and if he's dead set on a "risk free" offense for us, he's going to run this one into the ground fairly quickly as well.

Look guys, you may not agree with the man's opinion that the guy "is not a head coach". You know he's not trying to make a semantic argument out of it. At times, he doesn't seem to carry himself like a head coach, more of a players coach. Sometimes those guys are successful--Gruden in Oakland, for example. Sometime they're not--like Tice in Minnesota. We'll have to see, but up until now, Herm has not exactly set the world on fire in his coaching accomplishments.

And honestly, the defense continually belly-aching about how they felt like second class citizens while Vermeil was here proves to me to what I thought all along--they're a bunch of p**sies who can't tackle. It's not like they were asked to stop an offense from rolling up 20 points, just 30.”

--------------------------------------------

Im waiting for the real games but of course Im just hoping that everything works out. Herm bugged me a little talkig about how he owuld rather win a game 10-7 than 31-34. BOOOO. thats what makes the chiefs so fun to watch. Its not that i like our sucky defense, but right now he needs to know that we have our strengths, and right now our team is built to score points and score lots of them. Signing law was good...real good, but i hope he doesnt screw up the team.

--------------------------------------------

“…I also hate to see games to down to the final seconds at 31 to 34 or something like that.”

You thought you hated it??? Well thankfully you now have Herm "Clock Management" Edwards at the helm.

--------------------------------------------

Vermeil took over a team in shambles, started from scratch, and built a team that went 13-3 with a CRAP defense and solid O inside of three years. Over his five years in KC, he was 44-36 as head coach. For his career, he's 126-114, owning one Super Bowl victory, another appearance, and 2 NFC CHampionships. He was also once named NFL Coach of the Year, and owns the rare distinction of having been named Coach of the Year at the high school, junior college, NCAA Div 1, and pro levels.

Herm took over a Parcells-playoff team, kept the engine running, and managed p TWO playoff wins (less than several) against Tony Dungy and Mary Schottenheimer (as Taga said, that's probably a push, but it does tell me he's not as conservative as those guys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shrug.gif) ), and went 39-41 overall regular season in the same span. Career record the same 41-44, including playoffs.

(Taga's on vacation... that was a pain in the a**)

I think that there were many better potential replacements out there. I don't think he did anything to be qualified to be handed a team in this good of shape other than being buddies with Carl.
