    Default Croyle and the rest of this season?

    This is a harsh opinion, but I'm throwing it out there.

    So when do we start Croyle? The last game of the season? Unless they draft offensive linemen and acquire some talent off the market(which they won't) the O will be just as terrible next year as it is this year. So do it now. Yes, it will be tough. It will also show what he's made of in toughness and mentality.

    They knew they had issues going back to last year and even the pre-season. Did they bring in any starting free agents? Nope. Did they draft any potential starting O-line players? Nope.

    Herm and Peterson keep telling us that the team needs to be younger but keep bringing in old talent. ie Law, Surtain, Turley, etc. Instead they invested a boat load of money into an ineffective RB in Larry Johnson who didn't even have the decency to honor his contract. That guy is another T.O. and Moss and infects the locker room like a virus. They should have kept Bennett and sent his sorry a$$ packing when he pulled that. Call Vermeil what you want, but he brought in good decent players you liked and they performed for him. He didn't like LJ and I guess we're starting to see why.

    Personally, the rest of this season is a wash. Yeah, we might win the West, but it sure isn't anything to brag about like past years. That will be it, because we can't even come close to competing in the playoffs. Start Croyle, maybe rotate some developing O line players and let's give the "QB of the future" some experience and serious playing time.

    Huard will not win us a Superbowl, the O line will not win us a Superbowl and a strong defense alone will not win us a Superbowl. I want a Bowl appearance and I really could care less about winning the AFC West. I think we sell ourselves short and are settling for less if all we really care about is the AFC West. We as fans need to demand more.

    I'm so disappointed this year. I knew we would struggle, but not to this extent. There are so many problems that this team needs to address. All the way from ageing corners, ageing QB and a failure of an effective O line. They need to really, really shake something up now! You also never hear if Huard has even taken a leadership role in this team.

    How cool would it be to have Herm as a DC, and DV as an OC? WHo would our HC be?

    Vermiel went to a horrid Eagles team, and took them to the Super Bowl in his fourth season.

    Cowher was the youngest head coach to ever take a team to the Super Bowl, when he did it in his fourth season.

    Herm is in his seventh season, including wearing out his welcome after five, with the Jets. Where does he stand by that comparison?

    As for our current defense, I say they are led by two of Vermiels guys. Jared Allen and Derrick Johnson. Not that I am dissing Herms eye for defensive talent, but you paint a picture of Herms guys dominating this defense, when there is something else going on.

    You rip Vermeil for not supplying defense, but ignore all of Herms offenses. I understand that you think he needs more time to show what he can do, but you ignore his faults, or just let them pass, while raging about Vermiel and Cowhers' failures.

    Don't ya think?
    The reason people turned on him in New York was because there was a rumor he'd take this job. That's the only reason. Out of all the years Herm's been in the league, how many of those has he had a stable QB? Not many.

    I only talk about what Vermiel did here. Not in Philly or St. Louis...cuz he didn't do that here. DJ is a first round pick #16...HE BETTER BE A LEADER!...where's Sims #6 again? We lucked out with Jared Allen. There's a reason so many teams passed on him.

    Don't forget, it was Vermiel who pitched a fit that we drafted LJ. Let's not get into Dick's drafting for the Chiefs, because you're going to lose this arguement ugly.

    What has Herm done on offense? Please, tell me. Besides drafting 7 offensive players with 14 picks, including a first round WR and a 3rd round QB?

    I guarantee Herm will do more for the offense than Dick did for the defense if he's here as long.

    Sorry chief31, but I'm tired of ONLY making the playoffs.

    With the lack of parity in the NFL now, and dynasties happening every decade, I don't buy it.

    It takes dirty ball to win championships, and HERM is too clean a guy to do that.

    SUPERBOWL OR NOTHING!

    Last year, we got luck to make it. This year, if we win the division, it will be due to being the least worst team in the AFCW. Being the least worst doesn't make us good or Super Bowl caliber. I agree that playoffs will be an embarrassment at this point.
    Tony Dungy ain't the guy with the halo above his head like they portray him. He has his demons, just like everyone else.

    He is doing whatever it takes to win games.

    He has went out and gotten the guy that keeps beating him in the playoffs.

    This weeks went contrary to half the viewers beliefs, but was still a pretty good game.


    I guess what I'm trying to say is "If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'."

    Go Chiefs!

    Then I disagree. I'd like to think we're above that. They're not only athletes, they're role models too.

    you're kidding yourself if you think that New England thing was an isolated event.

    I don't want either as Coordinators. Give me an experienced offense who could understand and execute the complex offense of Al Saunders and a young aggressive defense that won't cry after Gunther Cunningham gets done with them and Herm Edwards as the head coach.

    You'll have to forgive me. I'm just some chick who sees everything through rose colored glasses, and who finds it impossible to have her own opinions.
