herm edwards a chief. parcells will stay

[tony hipchest]

chiefs give up a 4th round pick to the jets for herm and parcells signed a 2 year extension. i hope to watch the cowboys suck another year and make him quit (once again)

[Ambridge]

I really don't understand Kansas City going after Herm Edwards.
Herm's had a few good seasons with the Jets but he's really not accomplished anything special in New York and he's been notoriously bad with clock management and in game decisions making.

[tony hipchest]

i guess because hes a dick vermiel protege who had his endorsement and his excellent motivational skills. his in game mgmt does seem to be the knock on him though. atleast hes a defensive minded coach. i think dick vermiel had alot to do with this decision

They'll have a honeymoon year in KC, go 12-4, win the division and lose in the 2nd round of the playoffs next year...

[3 to be 4]

you know whats interesting?
Belichick takes a bad team in Cleveland, eventually builds them into a very good 11-5 playoff team, before Modell submarines everything in 1995.
so...1 playoff team in 5 years and hes a "failure in Cleveland"
Vermeil has 1 playoff team in 5 years and is a great success.
Herm Edwards has 3 playoff teams in 5 years and is considered a step down in KC?

please explain all this to me.

I think KC will have a better team next year.Herm is a very disciplined guy,and it'll show in the Chiefs play.

I wonder if we'll see all of Herm's press conferances now that he's out of NY's media glare?

That's real Cheap. The Jets Get a Draft Pick In Exchange. I didn't know you were allowed to trade coaches.

[BlitzburghRockCity]

Yeah values and respect for the game landed him that job in KC. I'd venture a guess that the STeelers would have gone after him had we needed a coach. He's a rooney type of coach, and the chiefs are very well respected around the league just like we are.

Edwards is a terrific coach. He took mediocre Jet teams very far. hey, remember last years playoffs??? tell me that team had any business taking the Steelers that far.

[clevestinks]

???????? If the Jets wanted him gone! and they must have to only as a fourth round pick for him. Then why didn`t they just let him go?
Parcells stays in Dallas, cool no worries from them for a few more years. I am probably the only one here that is a Parcells hater. I think he has won some games, with alot of coordinators help, he took over some good teams that he shouldn`t have gotten credit for. And when he falls on his face like this year all the blame goes somewhere else. He is an I I I I I I coach!
