He read the D wrong.

It happens especially with basically a rookie QB.

Oh, I totally agree with Croyle being able to do things Huard can't...

But will Croyle be able to handle REAL games where teams are blitzing?

I DEFINITELY have my doubts. The way he put his head down and tried to run for a first on the 3rd and 4 a drive later isn't a promising sign.

I don't think he read the D at all...

I think the play was designed to go to Wilson, and that's where he threw it...

Tamba Hali picked up where he left off, nice forced fumble.

And I'm ready to eat crow on Donnie Edwards, the guy is in on EVERY PLAY.

Boomer Grigsby doesn't dress, again. Disappointing to say the least.

The Chiefs LB's are going to be phenomenal this year...

I kind of want to see Law/Surtain/Randolph/Brackenridge/Sapp be our corners...screw Will Poole.

Why was Wesley starting today?

I don't think so. It was a bad throw.

I admit it wasn't a great throw or decision. It was just bad all around

Huard can't handle it either. He overthrows every screen pass...

Oh and he fumbled 9 times last year.

The solution is to use a moving pocket or the bootleg, which Croyle ran successfully tonight and Huard can't run at all.

All I'm saying is...

Brodie needs to learn how to check down otherwise he's going to have a few huge games to start the season and then the league is going to figure him out and he's going to turn Grossman on us...(which, if he's as good as Grossman I'll be super content).

I don't think Wesley started. But he was in the game early, subbing for Page.

It was a bad throw, it was bad mechanics, it was a bad read, it was a bad decision. Have to side with Hootie here, there's no excuse for that pass if you're Croyle.

Huard is more poised in the pocket than Croyle is...

And yeah, Huard has missed every throw.

That doesn't erase my thoughts that he should start the season against our treacherous first four.

Throwing off his back foot like that worried me a little bit. That habit should be long gone by this point BUT he definitely has potential. No doubt about that.

I can honestly say I was at the "I really don't give a shit anymore" point with this team till we finally drafted a QB that should start.

BUT HEY...

Let's not overlook that touchdown drive...

He looked like Carson Palmer back there...it was awesome.

The guy has awesome skills, like I said, reminds me A LOT of Rex Grossman right now.

And I'm on record, on this site, of saying Rex will turn out to be a pretty good QB...

But if Brodie starts all 16 this year I can see a 24/20 type season from him.

Croyle has the skills he just needs the turf time and a line that won't gt him killed.
