That's completely missing the point. Denver didn't shut us down this game. They didn't have to. We shut ourselves down.

I might agre that the Huard experiment worked except for the fact that even when we had to move the ball downfield, we chose to dink and dunk.

It's one thing to play a game close to the vest. But there will come a time when you have to open it up. That time came in this game and we were helpless.

Except for if the coin flip went the other way and Huard led the team down the field for a FG (which he's PROVEN he is capable of) the Chiefs would have won the game and then all the pessimists would have been forced to find something else to whine about.

The notion that he's suddenly going to become more durable in a few years is absurd. He can either handle an NFL pounding or he can't. I don't see the point in saving that verdict for 2 years down the road. We need a QB now.

Give me a break. The only thing he proved is that once the Denver defense figured out that he wasn't going to throw beyond eight yards, he was ineffective.

To claim that he would be capable of getting us in FG range in overtime completely ignores that he was incapable of doing it for 90% of the second half.

We took a 10 year vet that was supposed to know the offense and coddled him like a rookie in his first pre-season game.

At this point, I can't find a single argument for starting him over Croyle.

Huard wasn't the reason we only ran 30% of the playbook.

The offensive line is.

We will always find something to whine about don't you know that already?

I agree. That may play into our hands though. If we dumb downt he O a little and jsut focus on being a power running and play action team that might beenfit us.

Remember when Marty used to say "we don't scheme we jsut line up and smach them in the mouth"?

Similar but still with a flair of the DV offense. Green is better than Grbac or Bono so I can see a potentialy good year.

IF the O line can learn to do a few things well.

So when do we actually try to win a game? Because we didn't today.

At some point we have to do more than sit back with our fingers crossed.

And besides, Huard's ability to run an ineffective offense is hardly something to start patting him on the back about.

That is part of it but then why didn't they max protect and play action pass like back in the Steve Deberg days?

Did we watch the same game? I was there, drinkiing of course, but I remember several passes more than 10 yards. I didn't expect the 2nd string to run the same offense as Trent and I think that is a unrealistic. I took the train home from InDonco field and there weren't too many people talking smak - overtime by 3 in a game there were supposed to win by double digits. It would have been nice riding home with my face painted and my headress on with a W, but no one could give me shi# on the ride home because they knew that it was only by chance that the walked out with the W

Huard sucks, i could've gone in there and thrown 5 yard routes as well. He made no mistakes ill give him credit for that....oh wait he fumbled.

Huard was OK for his first time out. If they don't open this offense up a little during the next 2-3 games then they might as well get Croyle in there.

I don't remeber more than 2 or 3 pass attempts of more than 10 yards.

Everything else was short slants and underneath stuff.

Dude, we have to sign you immediately then. I'll ask Herm what he's waiting for when he has a perfectly capable starter who won't fumble posting on ChiefsPlanet.

I was fine with Huard's play today. In fact, he did better than I expected. Granted we won't be having a QB controversy, but I think he did better than Collins would have. In all honesty, I was surprised at his quick throws and accuracy. He made some mental errors with game management, but I think with more game time, those would go away.
