    Just seen on NFL.com that the Chiefs fired Herm Edwards. I had a feeling this was coming, it needed to with a 2-14 finish. Is it me or is there a lot of coaches losing their jobs this year. It is a year of CHANGE!

    Local radio is reporting Shanahan as his replacement.

    I wonder if they had Shanahan on board and then fired Edwards.

    Herm Edwards, the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs during the worst two-year span in team history, was fired Friday. Edwards goes out with a three-year regular-season record of 15-33 and with one year remaining on a four-year, $12 million contract. As head coach of the New York Jets in 2001-05, he had a regular-season mark of 39-41 and was 2-3 in the playoffs.

    I would have kept him.

    He made the tough decision and was willing to blow up the roster and re-build properly. His roster is loaded with talent now and is primed to improve over the next couple of years. They exceeded expectations this year in my view and I would have kept him around to finish the job.
