From the looks of the play by play that seems to be what they did.
Not sticking up for Herm but maybe it was just a game to get an idea of the running game and also see how some if anyone that wasnt expected to make the team stands out.
From what I have heard and read the second game is almost the last chance for someone on the fence to make the team. Cuts are starting and the 53 is going to be set soon. I know no one likes to lose but maybe this showed Herm that conservative play calling to hog the clock would not get it done in the NFL.
Again I havent yet watched this game, it is set to TIVO from the NFL Network tomorrow night, from there I will watch and analyze and see if I feel all this was the case or if Herm was trying to dilute blame.
Anyway I am still very excited about the season and the season opener, I for one would love to kill the unbeaten streak of the Pats before it ever begins this year, I dont care to hear about it.
And in closing.
GO CHIEFS !!!
