KRT Wire | 01/13/2007 | Don't blame Edwards for Chiefs' offensive woes
By Joe Posnanski

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - These days, it's pretty popular to smash Chiefs coach Herm Edwards. All week, people have called and written in to say that the Chiefs need to fire Herm, deport Herm, sic the IRS on Herm, make Herm write "I will call pass plays" on a chalkboard 500 times.

Those emotions are understandable after that torturous Kansas City-Indianapolis playoff game - one friend compared watching that game to watching a videotape of his divorce proceedings. The only way that game could have been more painful to watch is if that oppressively annoying guy from the "very, very rewarding" commercials had announced the game (what country is that guy supposed to be from, anyway?)

Still, I have to say: It seems to me Herm is getting a bad rap.

It seems to me that when you look at the season, the guy did a pretty remarkable job.

As a Jet fan, I watched Herm coach for 5 years. He's a great guy and his teams play hard for him. But he never knew what to do at the end of games when it game to clock management, play calling, really, anything that had to do with the offensive side of the ball...He also was lost when it came to challenges...So I wouldn't want him to coach my team.
