Herm Edwards

Did anyone else see Herm laugh after Jamal Charles dropped the ball that Thigpen threw to him in the second quarter? I was so ****** at Herm that I could have strangled him. That to me was unclassy and very unprofessional. He is a joke to the NFL and should be taken out back and shot

A little over the top, don't you think? He was probably laughing sarcastically about how he can't seem to get anything to work right, no matter what they try. This team is young, but still the way they've played so far is disappointing, to say the least.

Tell us how you really feel about the guy! I was surprised he got the KC job. I am more surprised that he has held onto it. I just don't think he is a very good coach.

I took it as more of "wow, I can't catch any breaks." Kind of like how I laughed last night after we'd get called for a late hit or drop a pass.

That being said, the Chiefs are trying their best to beat out the Raiders for laughing stock of the AFC West.

Chiefs keep playing like they are and they may just have to move the team to Boise, ID. Maybe the blue turf could change their fortune.

Pretty sure they already have that title.

I have always thought the exact same thing. He sucked with the Jets, why wouldn't he suck now? I was pretty mad when he got the job in KC. Its like there are no coaches left and they keep recycling the same crappy ones.

They need to hire Kirk Ferentz for an upgrade. Too bad their oline is so stodgy and immobile.

I do not understand how that guy still has a job. He runs every team he coaches straight into the ground.

He was cheap buy at the time.

Chiefs had to give up a fourth round draft pick to get the New York Bretts to release him.

I swear it was two picks they had to give up, but not according to Wikipedia.

Maybe Vermeil knew it was time to get out as he had an aging team, or maybe Herm really is this bad. Its tough to tell at this point, but I was never impressed with him when he was with the Bretts.

The Jets wanted him gone but knew the Cheifs wanted him so they made it look like they wanted to keep him so they could get something out of the deal.

Good move by the NYJ on this one.
