The book on Huard is that he is an average NFL talent with some smarts and a willingness to stand in the pocket (basically bacause he can't do anything else)

When a smart average NFL QB gets time to pass (like he did yesterday) he'll make throws.

Huard playing doesn't sit well with me for these reasons:

1. He didn't 'beat' Croyle in the preseason. He was every bit as bad as Croyle in the games he played, maybe worse. His starting the season was more a comfort for Peterson than the fact that Huard won the job.

2. He is playing scared. No, not because his O-line is mediocre, but becuase he's afraid he's going to get yanked. Herm has force fed his QB's into submission about not making mistakes that they're scared to lose and afraid to win. Granted, Brodie takes chance that he maybe shouldn't, but He's going to throw the pass that he needs to.

3. He's not even that good at checking down his passes. Seriously. Has he completed a swing pass or screen pass this year? The one in Houston that Wilson was pummled on iced the game for them. you can see LJ is just flabbergasted by what is coming his way.

But the biggest is:


4. So what if Huard plays OK, it gets this team NOWHERE!!!!!!!! This team at its peak potential still doesn't have the talent to compete with the NE and IND of the league. Maybe by the time they do, it would be nice if your QB was a 2nd or 3rd year QB entering into his prime instead of a washed up 37-year old.

Sure, it's great KC won and I was excited as hell, but as much as I would like to see KC win this year, my head tells me it'll just end in dissappointment.
