We’ll definitely gauge everyone’s opinions throughout this season.

Taking away a long gain from a RB, to work out his averages it happened you cannot take it away. Look at his time here, he will not adjust, even if there is a young player that can out play a vet. We run on first down a majority of the time, unless we are way behind. Gee what are the Chiefs going to do on first down. He is stuck in the 90’s, and is way to stubborn to adjust. Look at when he first got here. Herm are you going to change the offense? No, you don’t change a good thing, I ain’t no dummy. It changed a little I think.

And I never hear positives about him.

Thank you DJ

not ignoring anything…stating fact… hearsay…. i dont think so

if you know so much about edwards… i dont need to point out anything to you about clock management

you are using IR as an excuse

edwards and peterson era is done

In an attempt to rebuild the team, Edwards cut numerous aging veterans in the offseason, including Pro Bowl Defensive End Jared Allen who was traded to Minnesota As a result, Edwards fielded one of the youngest teams in the NFL in 2008. Edwards streak of opening day defeats continued as the Chiefs lost to the New England score of 17-10. This continued the Chiefs losing record from 2007 into 2008.Edwards team skidded to a franchise record of 12 consecutive regular season defeats. The Chiefs finally ended the streak after defeating the Broncos at home of 33-19. Unfortunately they were blown out the following week at the Carolina . During that game, the Chiefs only managed to gain 127 total yards, their worst performance in 22 years…. is this not a reflection of Edwards?

Herman Edwards’ performance as a coach has drawn a variety of criticisms.

Teams coached by Edwards have typically started most seasons with poor performances, leading to speculation that Edwards does a poor job of preparation in the preseason. Additionally, Edwards’ record on opening day of the NFL season is 2-6, and his teams have been outscored 203-135 (including 87-30 in the last 4 season openers, all losses) in these games. Ironically, the last season opening game that Edwards’ current team, the Chiefs, managed to win was against Herm Edwards, when he was still coach of the New York Jets.
Edwards has been criticized for a number of perceived clock management gaffes.
Edwards’ game plans have often been criticized as too conservative with little or no imagination.
A prime example of Edwards’ game plans, the lone Chiefs 2006 playoff game was one of the worst offensive performances in recent history.
 
Edwards has been accused of running multiple running backs into the ground, most notably Curtis Martin and Larry Johnson. (accused operative word there)

Icy Issue: Who’s the worst veteran coach in football?
 
Icier Response: Our money is on Kansas City’s Herm Edwards, who apparently subscribes to the same stagnant offensive theories used so ineffectively by the trench-warfare advocates of World War I

The Chiefs ranked No. 1 in either scoring offense or total offense every year from 2002 to 2005 under head coach Dick Vermeil.
 
But last season, after just two years of the Edwards regime, the Chiefs had plummeted to 31st in both categories.

After the fall from dominant to mediocre in the one year from 2005 to 2006, the Edwards offense fell from mediocre to historically pathetic in the one year from 2006 to 2007.
 
Put most simply, the Chiefs were consistently one of the most dominant offenses in football for four straight years under Vermeil. They were one of the very worst in football last season, after just two years under Edwards.

And there’s no denying that the KC offense went in the tank the day Edwards took over. The lack offense, of course, has certainly impacted the bottom line.
 
The Chiefs were just 4-12 last year, tying a mark for the worst record in franchise history. Only the existence of true bottom feeders like Miami and St. Louis prevented the Chiefs from being the worst team in football last year.
