I like Chan Gailey and never thought he got enough credit for being ahead of the curve in a lot of ways.

By all accounts an overmatched head coach but I thought he was a pretty damn good OC.

I wasn't the biggest fan, but he does deserve credit for trying new shit (Unlike the fraud that is Squirmin Herman Motherfucking Sack of Cunt Edwards). His biggest problem was that he made no adjustments, he'd have been better off making a gameplan for the first half - which he normally had success with, and then something completely different in the second.

WAY too many games, he'd put up 20+ in the first and <7 in the second. I fully understand that Thigpen was a massively limited QB, but Gailey would have been served to do SOMETHING different after a few looks.

Don't get me started on Herm Edwards. That fuggin' guy man...

We have the best offense in the league for 4 straight years. Though older, we still had good players when Vermeil left. Herm comes in and says, "Fugg this, we're going to score 17 points instead of 30." He completely neuters the offense because it apparently scores...too...much (??)

They knew Green was on his way out and did absolutely anything to replace him. We were stuck with Tyler Thigpen (God bless him, he did his best) after Dave Kreig v.2.0 (Huard) and Fragile Manning (Croyle) got hurt. And when literally everything Herm did eventually failed, he finally threw his hands in the air and basically said, "Whatever..lmma gonna go play Mario Kart."

Chan Gailey, also neutered by Herm, opens up his copy of Madden 2006, builds his own team, and creates all these backyard, "draw 'em up in the dirt" plays. And guess what? We actually are able to compete! With Tyler friggin' Thigpen at QB!

God...I hate Herm Edwards. I hated listening to him on Kietzman's show because he was treated as some kind of football genius by the media—merely because he was good for a few dumbass soundbites every press conference. Boy, that guy sure sounds like he knows what he's talking about...and fugg me, he's downright hilarious! I don't know what it all has to do with winning football games, but let's get that guy a microphone!

God dammit! Now I'm in a horrible mood.

Right?

You know all the crap that followed, Crennel in particular was just as fucking bad as Herm, but he wasn't up on the fucking podium grandstanding about how they were gonna do it like they did in Tampa and insinuating that fans are idiots for expecting more.

We did not 'compete' with Thiggy. We were 2-12 that year. If Thiggy had started all year, we may have won 4 games. 5, tops.

After Thigpen took over, we averaged about 23 ppg. Prior to that, we averaged 13.

We were competing in the sense that we weren't getting blown out of games anymore. That defense was the worst Chiefs defense in franchise history.

Oh, and let's not forget that Squirmin Herman Motherfucking Sack of Cunt Edwards' foray into the college offense game, was picking up that goddamned WR off a practice squad and expecting him to run the option.

HE SURE TRICKED THEM!

If there is one thing I got out of it; I know that if there is one person Buehler445 would like to punch in the face it’s probably Herman ****ing Edwards.

I am not sure which he dislikes more, Herm****** or the******* Broncos. :-)


This line resurrected some really bad memories for me of the Marv Levy Era.
"The 6-foot-3 Thigpen played quarterback in a wing-T offense in high school and in a spread offense at Coastal Carolina."
