There is no reason not to let Green go - Page 2

Red Dawg · 01-08-2007, 08:39 AM

seriously. This should be a no brainer. He's 37 and his skills have drastically declined.

we don't know this ... he got hurt and struggle for a few games when he came back.

hardly enough to know that his skills have declined.

a better reason would be that if we are going to simplify this pathetically simple offense so more there really isn't a reason to not go with a cheap Quarterback.

kitna,garcia ... one of these guys that don't cost much.

This was what I thought, too, but I was guessing. Do you know more specifics? What the cap hit would be? Or are you just full of

Nobody will give up a first round draft pick for Huard. Say no to crack.

It appeared to me that when they took the leash off of him, he drove the team right down the field. Personally, I think Green is very frustrated with the utterly reeruned offense Edwards apparently wants to use. Neanderthal football is dead.

I don't know what the cap hit would be, only that it would be too much.

WR is about as big of a problem as OL.

IMO (and I know the KC offense was badass a few years running), but WR has always been a problem, but Saunders hid it well. Herm showcased the mediocrity at the position.

I don't think any of the veteran offensive players want to come back.

Especially since he's a FA after this year.

Honest question: What is Trent Green good at at this point in his career?

After Saturday's game I started thinking about it.

IMO his best attribute has always been his ability to go through progressions. He's not terribly accurate, his high completion percentage was a product of his ability to find the open guy. He doesn't have a lot of touch on his throws (never has). His short passes are too hard and his deep ones tend to float or die. He's not mobile, and while in the past he's been at least elusive, pressure seems to rattle him more than ever now.

So the one thing that Green does really well is now negated by a line that can't give him enough time.

I can't think of a single reason why I would want Green back in anything other than a backup role. He's either not the guy he used to be, or we was always a product of his O-line. Either way, I think it's time for the next Chiefs QB.

I think Huard is a free agent anyway.

Damon Huard is a free agent ........ THERE'S NOTHING TO TRADE.
