Dragonborn10 Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Can someone, anyone explain or give some information on how this guy got to be a headcoach, a headcoach that an orginaztion gave up draft picks for, and now is a commentator for ESPN??? How does he interview for a job and someone come out of that interview sayign this is our guy to lead our football team? This is the guy on want on camera representing our brand name. It has to be naked pics of someone..has to be...
DrDawkinstein Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Been in football his whole life, and the NFL most of his adult life. Being "in the circle" goes a long way. Knowing how NFL organizations operate and what not. Plus, while he may not be a great X's and O's guy, he is a pretty good motivator. I read his book (takes about 1 day), and it's pretty decent. The Bills have hired worse.
Mr. WEO Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 He's a nice guy but knid of a bufoon. A self caricature. An awful coach.

voodoo poonani Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 i heard him say this week on ESPN radio about Jay Cutler, "he isn't emotionally handling his emotions". Ummm...
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Took 2 different teams to the playoffs. A lot of people are way less successful in their careers than that.
gumby Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 He has a worse career winning percentage that Rich Kotite.
Beerball Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Never thought he was much of a coach, but I do enjoy listening to him on ESPN.
billsfan89 Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 The Chiefs gave up a late pick for him it wasn't a Jon Gruden type deal where they gave up massive picks for him. Herm basically got the KC job because the NFL coaches and GM's are basically a big frat house, its tightly knit, if you had even a modest amount of success somewhere its going to get you another shot. Herm was the epitome of average with the Jets, but KC was desperate for a HC and Herm knew the right people. Now after having 2 crappy seasons with the Chiefs and one one and done playoff appearance he has used up that second chance unless he wants to be a coordinator.
John in Jax Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Are Herm Edwards & Tony Dungy the same guy? I don't think I've ever seen them together. lol
tombstone56 Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 answer is easy ,HE SUCKS AS A HEAD COACH! he rode coattails for years then he got his shot twice,he wrecked two franchises and cost his GM his job,thats why hes in a booth .most are caught up with him being a "ex HEAD COACH" .BUT in reality he wasnt any better than hank bullough,kay stephenson or juaron!
The Poojer Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 i was on a conference call and the presenter actually used the line. "...it can handle axiomatical axioms...." i heard him say this week on ESPN radio about Jay Cutler, "he isn't emotionally handling his emotions". Ummm...
NoName Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Why all the hatred for herm? Let me guess Dick Jaruon would make a better coach tham him??? What makes him such a bad coach? What makes him such a bad analyst? I think he's a great analyst.
tennesseeboy Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Took 2 different teams to the playoffs. A lot of people are way less successful in their careers than that. That puts him ahead of all of our coaches of this millenium.
Sisyphean Bills Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 It's not what you know, it's who you know.
hondo in seattle Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Are Herm Edwards & Tony Dungy the same guy? I don't think I've ever seen them together. lol Tony is smart, articulate, and won the Super Bowl.
KGun12TD Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Herm is an IDIOT! I always mute the volume when he's talking. This guy is the moron who made it...ESPN always seem to hire morons for he most part.
