what the hell herm you clown this just proves you do not have a clue
I was so happy Herm went for it. He needs to prove that he is not a conservative coach. I don't care about the loss. I could not be happier with today's performance.
I'm glad Herm went for two, he finally shpowed some guts. With our defense very banged up why not go for it. I actually gained some respect for Herm today.
I still want him gone, but I don't mind the call.
Yeah, hate him if he misses it, love him if he does. Coming from the second biggest Herm Hater on this board, I do not blame him for going for it.
Well to try to change one's image by this call, wrong way to do it.
No. It took the Chiefs three tries from the 1 yard line to get in position to tie the game. The Chiefs do not have a running game to punch the ball in. Both defenses are worn out. Any decent coach ties the game here and prays for the best on the coin flip. He doesn't go for two.
I agree with the call. It's easy to second guess. But I like giving your guys a chance to win instead of leaving it to a coinflip. If we lose the coinflip, the defense is in shambles due to injuries and we lose the game. If we win the coinflip, we still have to drive the length of the field. Considering the Chiefs punted 4 of the last 5 possessions, I think he made the right call.
I am happy with the Chiefs performance again this week. I wish they had gotten the win, but thems the breaks. If we can get the defense healthy, this team will win some games. No doubt in my mind.
Oh and I am officially on the Tyler Thigpen bandwagon.
Didn't the Chiefs stop SD to get the ball back and drive for that last TD, what makes you think they couldn't do it again in OT.
Just because you lose a coin flip doesn't mean you lose the game. Missing the 2 point conversion means you LOSE!
The only mistake made was Thigpen trying to force it in to Gonzo when Bradley had a chance to squeeze it in. It's okay though, he's young and he'll make that play the more experience he gets. If you blame Herm for this loss or the way the Chiefs have lost in the past two weeks, you're delusional. He HAD to make that call. You don't go on the road and expect to win in overtime with a defense as beat up as ours. It was clear that our offense didn't have too many big drives left either. Good call, Herm. Sorry it didn't work out. Some of you fans might not believe in what Herm is doing but the players obviously do and that's why they're playing better than any incarnation of this team has in recent past. You can look at our record and say we're a pitiful team and blame the coach etc. but if you can't see by now that the youth movement is starting to work, then you're blind.
I miss the days when we could just send Priest over the top like we did in Oakland.
We may have the worst defense in the NFL. Despite a +9 advantage in turnovers and leads in the past three games as halftime, we're 0-3. Our OC is one of the best in the game and is making the offense work. Our HC and DC are doing their best to undo his good work.
That's what I see.
400 total yards of offense, 4 scoring drives, 2 of which came just before that defensive stop and 5 drives of 45 yards or more might offer a clue.
Not to mention, it seems a little much to think a defense full of 3rd and 4th teamers could do that again after the game they just had.
Your offense had ONE first down the ENTIRE 2nd half before that scoring drive. You're on the road and 1-7. What is there to lose? If Gonzo isn't held on that play, he's wide open in the corner. Go watch the re-play. Why do you think he was so pissed? The call was the right one.
It really doesn't matter what he would've done at the end of the game, every Herm hater would've been on his *** regardless.
I wonder if you haters thought it was a bad decision for the Chiefs to go for two against the Raiders a few years ago when Vermeil was calling the game.... you know, the game they won? I doubt y'all hated that decision also. Except, they were at home with a much better record, a much better offense and a much better defense. But, they got the 2pts and everyone praised the decision. I bet y'all did too. Hypocrites.
If they lose the coin flip, they lose the game being SD had the ball for almost 35 mins.
You still have a better chance in overtime! How many 2 point attempts are actually made?
Do you mean the game in Oakland where we had the best RB in the game to run the ball? Not this one, where we couldn't punch it in from the 1 with our outmatched RB corps.
It was an idiotic decision. Name one time - just one time - where a fan base booed because a coach took the game into overtime instead of going for two.
If we lost the coin flip, yeah, we probably lost the game. But our chance of winning th coin flip was higher than our getting the two-point conversion at the end of this game.
And yeah, I trust a SB winning coach with a winning record with a call like that instead of the mental midget whose now 1-18 over the past 19 games that we currently have on the sidelines.
A lot of people are jumping to the conclusion that we would have made the PAT....lets not forget about what happened on the first 2nd PAT of the game.
lmao... exactly.
You WOULD think there's a better chance of winning a 50/50 coin toss, then driving 80 yards for a score with our offense and defense than a chance to score from the 2.
You've been railing all year long about how horrible this team and coaching is but yet, you're willing to let that horrible team and coaching staff take the game to overtime and give them more chances to make poor plays and poor decisions. You can't have it both ways. Either this team is horrible and has almost zero chance to win in overtime or the team is horrible and they have a little bit better than zero chance to score from the 2.
1. We would only have to drive into FG range.
2. Our chance of going the 40-50 yards for a field goal are a whole lot better than doing what we weren't able to do that last drive - go two yards in one play.
3. When you have a great RB who can run for two yards, you might go for two. When you don't have RBs who can rush for two yards, then you don't. Is this hard to understand?
4. Our offense is a whole lot better than it used to be, thanks to Gailey getting to open the playbook, signing Bradley, starting Thigpen, and getting that gimp Croyle finally off the team.
So, I take it you couldn't come up with one instance of a HC being booed for going for OT?
