The Mythical Ricky Stanzi

Why? Why is this guy held in such high regard around here? I remember him leading exactly *ONE* touchdown drive of note last preseason, and really don't remember him sticking in my memory as a guy that I'd love to have on my team coming out of college.

Are we so starved for a quarterback, ANY quarterback, that we bring up through the ranks to finally break through and be THE GUY that we would put this seemingly average and nondescript player up on a pedestal? I mean, seriously, he couldn't even beat out Tyler Palko for the backup gig. Tyler. Freaking. Palko. It makes me wish I were more of a Hawkeye fan just so I could buy into the "hype" surrounding him. I haven't seen this much hopefull wishing since Casey Printers and Ted White didn't make the team.

So, sell me on this phenom named Stanzi. I dare you.

Because he is from Iowa.

If he was a 5th round pick from an east/west coast school...everyone would be referring to him as a career back-up.

Because the back up QB is the sexiest guy on any team with a less than desirable starter. Stanzi hasn't ****ed anything up yet to fade the color on the rose colored glasses so he's the anti Cassel simply for that alone.

He needs playing time to see if he can work out. We know damn well Cassel isn't the ancer so why not a draft pick for a change? That's all I've ever wanted as a Chief fan to watch a young QB we drafted and go with it. Watch him learn and grow with the team. Albeit I'd wish it would be a first rounder that comes with hype to get excited but a fifth rounder who doesn't have that pressure on him may just may turn out to be something special. We don't know but should be fun to watch.

I have no feelings either way towards Iowa. I have never even been to the state of Iowa

Couldn't get on the field by who? First thing that Romeo did was BENCH Palko and he never was an option again. Haley REFUSED to start Stanzi... it had nothing to do with using him as a sword to his own death, but simply that he knew he was done, and took down the Chiefs with him, by starting the worst possible QB we had for 4 GAMES?! Please. Let's not be naive either.

I have no idea if Stanzi is a secret weapon... but I know he is better then Palko. And he couldn't be worse then Cassel either.

Maybe it was an organizational decision to sit stanzi for the year regardless. Stanzi is still on the team and Palko isn't so he did "beat him out"

You could? I have a few theories but mostly think that Stanzi wasn't given much of a chance do to the lock out and short TC. They didn't have OTAs last year and Haley new Palko from AZ so was going give him that dibs on it. The biggest thing going into last years regular season is the fourth game of preseason. They did every thing they could do to prime or get Cassel ready for the regular season by playing him in all four quarters against Green Bay. They wanted Cassel to succeed more than anything and had Palko have a few drives in that game as the backup. No team has played there starting QB in all four quarters in any preseason game like that before. Rediculas but that's what the Chiefs did and neglected opportunity to see what Stanzi could do.

Stanzi was put on the back wash for the season and Haley didn't care. Then they brought in Orton who screwed Stanzi shot at playing time even more. Had they not brought in Orton Stanzi would have finished the year with the departure of Haley as HC.

And even by saying this, you still have zero idea if Stanzi is worth all the hype. And saying he couldn't be worse than what we have doesn't count, it just makes you sound like a Stanzi relative.

I hope the kid comes out and plays lights out, but I have no reason to believe it is going to happen. That's all I'm saying here.

Palko was the worst NFL QB I had ever seen in two straight Training Camps. I had seen NAIA QB's that had better arms and looked all-around better than Palko. He was Haley's puppet and played that part until Haley was no more. I bet you good money if we had Stanzi in those ball games we would have made the playoffs. He couldn't have done any worse than Palko did. I mean we didn't even put up a fighting chance offensively with Palko in.

Stanzi is a prospect. Nothing more, nothing less.

Had he played last year he would have failed and not because of his own doing. Our oline and running backs sucked. So we didn't put out prospect out on the field to get killed. I'm fine with that.
