I've been one of those "at least we're looking better" fans out of love for the Chiefs, and knowing this commentary like yours is necessary. Alot (read most) of Chiefs fans do give Herm too much credit, the only common factor in us not winning any of these last 4 games is Herm. Any decent coach could pick personnel for us now because the whole league sees the potential along with strong & weak points of our team. So I don't really think we should keep Herm for that reason alone. BUT I am not saying fire him, I'm holding off on that decision until the end of the season. And I'm pretty sure that something you write will contribute to my decision whatever you may be. So keep it up, addicts don't quit anything that easy!

I'm pretty sure I'm one of the guys who compared you to Jason Whitlock. I understand where you're coming from about Herm, but I really think the root of all of our problems goes back to Dick Vermeil. Carl just follows orders from his coach on most things personell related, and when Vermeil was here there was just two (TWO!) picks in the draft that turned out decent. LJ and DJ. And LJ was Carl's pick. (and don't give me anything about Jared Allen.. he was picked as a replacement for Kendall Gammons, not as a DE.. He just worked his ass off and got ) This team rotted out it's inside, it's depth with Vermeil. This is not a 1 year rebuild. This will take a LOT of time and good drafting to get a team that's subject to the same "parity" as any other. I personally think we're on our way. But I will agree with you that Herm Edwards will be like Marty when it comes to playoff games. I just think he's the right guy to get us through the rebuild. Great post, Adam.

But I loved it! I'll be honest this season is more freeing than any in recent history. The Chiefs have suffered in mediocrity for years now, with a bunch of first round exits or draft picks ranging from 15-20. I watch the games from Austin and don't get fazed anymore. Do I still wear my Chiefs slippers, or jersey, or hoodie, or assorted t-shirts? Damn straight I do but I'm apathetic with the Chiefs right now...and that Adam is probably why readership might be down. Just like society you have a lot of middle of the roaders and some crazy fringe players. Well my friends (ha!) we are those fringe players and when the Chiefs turn it around people will come running to get back on the wagon. Good thing our seat is up front whipping the coaches, players, and main stream media to stay in line. Keep up the important work (that last part was for the part of Adam that tucks his dong between his legs like Buffalo Bill)!
