The Chiefs cannot and will not win the game in Indianapolis this weekend without at least an appearance by Damon Huard. In 8 games this year, Trent Green has 9 interceptions, 8 fumbles (5 recovered) and 7 touchdowns for a quarterback rating of 74.1.

Damon Huard in 10 games has 1 interception, 9 fumbles (5 recovered), and 11 touchdowns for a 98.0 quarterback rating.

Why numbers don't tell the entire story, it's clearly evident to anyone who actually watches the games that the offense moves efficiently and effectively with Huard at the reigns. With Green, it's sloppy, ineffective and consistently struggling.

I've seen reply after reply about people worried about Trent Green's psyche for "next year": Who gives a flying flip about next year? The Chiefs are in the playoffs THIS YEAR!

Green's done. I just hope that the Chiefs organization and Herm Edwards in particular are smart enough to realize it before it's too late. I'd really like to see a playoff win before another 12 years goes by...

I was in favor of Green getting the nod as soon as he was healthy, but the Jax game changed my mind.

Green is simply making too many unforced mistakes. You can't do that in the playoffs, on the road.

Eerily reminiscent of when Marty chose Elvis over Gannon, except in this case, Trent has already shown us that he is not the guy. Plenty of factors point to Huard, but Herm is too stubborn to make a change. It's a shame to get the breaks we got to finally get in and likley watch the offense struggle again with Green. Hopefully a big dose of LJ will be sufficient.

Oh yeah, sure, a game where running the ball is going to be the factor and a bunch of tools with Huard's man goo on their faces automatically chalk the game up to a loss because of who will be handing the ball off to LJ. What a bunch of tards.

Has Huard EVER played in a playoff game?

That's just silly, the same number as Huard. Therefore next in line is how many has either played in. Green may only have one playoff game under his belt, but it is one more than Huard.

In the big game most managers want their most experienced guy on the mound, why that concept is suddenly being forgotten is beyond me.

No, Green has never won a playoff game, but neither has Huard. How think that makes him the savior is just plain stupid.

This is stupid.

Anybody here that think Trent Green isn't going to be prepared and up for this game is out of their f*cking minds. Trent has been snakebit in the playoffs - the whole Kurt Warner thing, and outplaying, yes -OUTPLAYING, Peyton Manning in Jan. 2004 and losing due to the boneheadedness of Johnny Morton and Marc Boerigter. Trent has a gorilla the size of Rhode Island on his back that he just can't wait to knock off.

I hope the Colts think like most of you guys and believe we don't have a chance if Huard isn't under center.

DON'T F*CKING SLEEP ON TRENT GREEN!!

Have you been watching the games?

Green has looked like crap with the season on the line over the past several weeks. To deny that he has looked much inferior to Huard this season is simply absurd. It's one thing to want experience, but another to turn a blind eye to better talent.

I love Trent, and think he has been great for the Chiefs, but he is not right, and our coaching staff has had ample opportunity to see it.

He's a backup for a reason. First of all you dont bench a player due to an injury. Second of all i'm pretty sure we just won yesterday agaisnt a decent team with Green. Either way,this week Huard nor Green will have a big effect. Its all going to be LJ and MB. Hvae faith in a QB that has gave us more than Huard ever will.

Uh, wasn't Trent Green a backup for his first 5 seasons? Wasn't Trent Green a backup to Kurt Warner in St. Louis after his injury? I mean, how stupid is this line of thinking?

Convince me, based on his play, why Trent Green will win in Indy? Not last year's Trent Green or 2003 Trent Green, 2006 Trent Green.

The Chiefs cannot go no the road and turn the ball over. That's all TrInt has done since he returned.

BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? Are you f#cking retarded? If Huard is really the second coming of Christ that you all have him pegged as, WHY HASN'T HE BEEN SIGNED AS A STARTER SOME WHERE? The man is a back up for a reason. Get it through your f#cking skulls. BACK UP. Good God, talk about blind eyes....

No, Green has not looked good, save for the Cleveland game. I do not deny that. However, when it comes down to the big game, give me the guy whith more experience, more heart and more leadership ability. I'll take the man who was running one of the besst offenses in the league over the course of 4 years over the guy who warming the f#cking bench during that time. I'll support the leader of my team even while going through the rough stages, because I know he can shake it off. He shook off 2001 and the TrINT moniker, he'll shake off this season too.

Unf#ckingbelievable. Trent had ought to tell this city to f#ck off. Thankfully he won't. Thankfully he will be under center this week. And thankfully we will win, not in spite of him, but with him.

That's a reasonable premise if said player comes back and plays at a level comparable to that prior to when he was injured. In this case, that isn't true, and Trent simply is not the player he was pior to Gaethers hit. The numbers don't lie.

If Huard had been poor, or even ordinary during his opportunity, I would feel differently, but he played very well, and until Green regains his confidence in the pocket, IMO Huard is a better option.

of the Jacksonville game last night. What struck me was the thought of what if? What if Green does not make a horrid in-decision to slide on the scramble? Green does not hurt his ankle. Huard does not make another celebrity-guest appearance that results in a scoring drive and the margin of victory. What if?

Oh right, blocked punts and INTs returned to the 1-yd line are just as common as other methods of scoring in the NFL. Gimmee a break. If Pollard doesn't block that punt and Law doesn't steal Garrard's throw, we would have been trailing in ther 4th quarter and you KNOW it.

Without the special teams play and the defensive steal, Green's output in 90% of the game is 14 points.

No I don't, and neither do you. Who knows what might have happened. Maybe the game is close, and we go no huddle for the entire second half and rack up 31 points that way. Maybe the Jaguars do the same.

Your belief that Trent Green is going to lose this game for us is absurd. As I said, I fully believe in him and his "want-to" for this game, and however far we make it in the playoffs. AND, I'd be willing to bet Damon Huard does as well.

Great job at having an adult conversation. Congratulations!

No need to act like this s no-brainer decision. Huard has played significantly better than Green, taking iinto account a reasonable sampling of both players abilities, THIS year. Huard will likely be signed this off-season for big $$$ to start for another team next year. Green's status as this teams' starter for next season is likely up in the air.

Trent, with all of his experience, in must-win situations, has shown over the past several weeks that he left something on the field in the Cincinatti game when his bell was rung. Simply put, he's not played well. Accept the reality of the situation, and minimize the internet tough-guy act, and you might be able to see why some people believe sticking with Trent, as much as most of us would like to, isn't the no- brainer you try and make it out to be.

I hopw we win next week with Trent since he will be the guy, but IMO Huard gives us a better chance.

Whatever! Maybe Trent Green at his best (say, 2003) is a better QB or has a higher ceiling than Damon Huard, but right now, Huard is the better QB.

And that's all that matters.

Yep. Indy has had one of the leagues worst pass rushes this season and they are tied for 20th in interceptions so I don't think this is a game to get too uptight about Green. If he sucks this week when he has time to throw and what I expect to be an effective run game, then the Huard argument becomes more compelling for the second round (if there is a second round for the Chiefs).

By that line of thinking, TrInt shouldn't have started after the 2001 season. 24 Int's! Also, Trent should have been pulled after last year's Buffalo game (13-3 loss).

I also think, he's not stupid, he knows he can't do what he did on Sunday. It requires putting faith in somebody, yes, but I don't think this is like Grbac. I trust Trent Green 1000 times more than I do Grbac, I'm sure Trent knows how lucky he is to have this opportunity.

Plus, and I've said this 18 million times, and nobody listens. But Huard did not play THAT well on the road, either, especially against playoff caliber teams. I do think Huard played better at home than Trent did, but on the road, ehhh. The Denver game, Pittsburgh, Miiami... Huard did not do anything all that spectacular. He had 0 TD and 1 INT in those games, completed just over 50% of his passes. I think Trent can do that.

The other funny thing is, if Eddie Kennison doesn't make the catch of his life the other day, we might not even be having this discussion. But I honestly think we can go into Indy and win with both guys.

Great job at having an adult conversation. Congratulations!

No need to act like this s no-brainer decision. Huard has played significantly better than Green, taking iinto account a reasonable sampling of both players abilities, THIS year. Huard will likely be signed this off-season for big $$$ to start for another team next year. Green's status as this teams' starter for next season is likely up in the air.

Trent, with all of his experience, in must-win situations, has shown over the past several weeks that he left something on the field in the Cincinatti game when his bell was rung. Simply put, he's not played well. Accept the reality of the situation, and minimize the internet tough-guy act, and you might be able to see why some people believe sticking with Trent, as much as most of us would like to, isn't the no- brainer you try and make it out to be.

I hopw we win next week with Trent since he will be the guy, but IMO Huard gives us a better chance.



Adult conversations went out the window with Huard obsessors long ago. You guys live in another universe, trying to apply logic to a discussion on the subject with you is a waste of time, I gave up on some time back.

Unfortunately Trent has NOT been doing that. He's been throwing a lot more INTs than Huard did. You can make a playoff run with a "Dilfer" at QB. Right now Green has been hurting the team with his turnovers.

By that line of thinking, TrInt shouldn't have started after the 2001 season. 24 Int's! Also, Trent should have been pulled after last year's Buffalo game (13-3 loss).

Your line of thinking makes no sense.



It makes perfect sense because Trent was the starter at the time. Huard is a back up playing a back up role to the injured starter. My line of thinking is perfectly fine.

I was in favor of Green getting the nod as soon as he was healthy, but the Jax game changed my mind.

Green is simply making too many unforced mistakes. You can't do that in the playoffs, on the road.

Seems odd that Green is bad when he plays Jags, Bolts, RAvens.... Hmmm I wonder if there is a theme there anywhere?

Green is simply making too many unforced mistakes. You can't do that in the playoffs, on the road.It would be one thing, if the Defense were making plays to make the picks, but they are usually the result of poor game management decisions by Trent. Rookies make those kind of mistakes. Forcing passes that should be thrown out of bounds, trying to roll out when he should just get rid of the ball or take the sack. And this, of all things, not getting the fug down early enough on the QB slide.

This all shows tentativeness and lack of command.

Huard came in and stepped up in the pocket and made plays. The offense blocked cleaner for Larry when he was in.

This is a tough call, but I would start Green, but yank him after his first screw up.

Simple as that.

Unfortunately for Trent the Browns aren't the #3 seed.

Trent has had one good game since his return - the Browns. That's it. Take away the Cleveland game and Trent has a very poor 64.8 QB rating. That isn't going to cut it in the post season.

Everyone wants to talk about the Colts poor running game. Yep, it's true - they suck against the run. However, even with their poor defense they are undefeated at home and the Chiefs are a poor road team. The Chiefs should go with the QB that is making fewer mistakes.

No. Based on the play of the two QBs over the span of their careers I go with Green for experience. He has been down before and shown he knows how to shake it off. I believe he will. This is most likely his last real shot at a ring as a starter, he'll make the necessary adjustments.

Huard just does not have the experience to fall back on in a big game like this. He is an unknown factor in this scenario. I'll take the leader of one of the top offenses versus a who know's what the hell to expect guy. The playoffs is not the time to start experimenting with the most important position on the offense. You go with the guy that has a proven track record, not the guy who only has a few starts under his belt.

Has Green ever WON a playoff game? What makes you think that Green will suddenly begin playing well? Sunday's performance?

Trent Green is playing absolutely HORRIBLY and the Chiefs have won IN SPITE of his playing.

Can't you see that?

I don't think you can go by Trent's playoff wins. That's not really fair because he has had few chances. The last chance he had, he played about as well as a QB can play. The defense didn't force a single punt and Priest had a critical fumble.

I agree that Trent has not been playing as well as he has in the past for the Chiefs. But I wouldn't say that he's been playing horribly. Stop being such a drama queen. That beauty of a pass on the flea flicker last Sunday was excellent. He also played pretty well against Oakland who was ranked in the top 5 defenses at the time. I'm not sure Huard would do any better.

8 Games, 9 interceptions, 5 fumbles (3 recovered), 7 TD's. 74.1 QB rating. 4-4 record.

Does that sound like a winner? Don't those stats look horrible? If that were Huard's numbers, this wouldn't even be an issue. But they're THE STARTING QB'S NUMBERS!.

If the starting QB's name wasn't Trent Green, the city would have run him out on a rail by the end of yesterday's game, if not sooner.

Did you not notice the word "try"? One of those near picks cost us Tony G as he prevented it from being intercepted.

It may have been only one game, but it wasn't just a bad game for Huard. He got the deer in the headlights look against a solid D on the road, do you REALLY want to trust him in a game as important as a playoff game? Seriously, stop and think about that.
Huard has got to be the luckiest SOB at QB that I've ever seen. He had several of his passes where the defender got his hands on the ball only to not make the pick. Huard's numbers are gaudy but if you watch the games, you can tell that he's not better than Green.

He can't catch it if it isn't thrown right. Some catches ARE spectacular - and that was definitely one of them, but you are wrong to assert that it was spectacular because it was poorly thrown - it was not. Eddie reached out to snag it with one hand, that's why it looked so spectacular, and then did all-pro footwork staying in bounds. That was the only spot the ball could have been thrown to w/o risking an INT or just throwing it out of bounds. And I guess you must not have seen the Jax lineman flattening DH on the exact second of his release.... :rolleyes:

I wasn't referring to "you" when I said that. I asked "How could *anyone* defend him", not you specifically.

I'm not "narrow" minded on the subject. I've seen 9 weeks of Trent Green and 9 weeks of Damon Huard. The team with Huard has outperformed the team with Green. Same thing happened in 2000 with the Ravens; their team performed better with Dilfer than with Banks, thus a Super Bowl victory.

IMO, the team of 1997 performed better with Gannon than with Grbac. The results speak for themselves.

OK. I don't have all the game tape, but off the top of my head I would be willing to gander that Trent had at least 3 INTs dropped by defenders. I saw one of them on Sunday. Then there the 9 actual INTs... I hear what you are saying, I am not saying Huard = Dawson, I am just saying as you are, he gives the Chiefs the best chance to win now.

Gut instincts? I was at the game Sunday and if I had never seen either QB's stat line, it was clear that DH was more poised, confident, on target with his throws, the team seemed more confident with him in the lineup, the Chiefs immediately converted a 3rd and 2 with a lazer strike to Parker on a slant and then a 40 yard gain to Kennison with a Jag in his grill (Huard never saw the play). Then LJ punches it in on 3rd and goal - I don't know what instinct they are trusting, but it seems to me that its not a football instinct.

Oh come on. You don't think it will matter? IT'S THE FRIGGIN QUARTEBACK! It almost always matters, especially when trying to pull out an upset on the road.

We wouldn't be in the playoffs without Huard. Huard may have been the difference in the Jacksonville game, and he only played one series.

Huard has been on fire this year. One down game where he threw one pick. Green has been horrid all year. One decent game where he still managed to throw one pick and do nothing in overtime. We would have won at least 10 games this year if Green had never come back.

I don't understand how anybody could watch all 16 games and not think it is painfully obvious that Huard gives us the best chance to win.

Did I say I don't think it will matter? It sure as hell isn't going to be the deciding factor, take that to the bank. If the Chiefs fall behind by a couple of scores, game over, no matter who the QB is.

And a good way to avoid falling behind by a couple of scores is to not turn the ball over and make plays on third down. Running the ball all day is great, but they won't win without passing.

Right, that was AT Jacksonville. In the RCA dome, Jax rushed for over 200 yards, controlled the ball for 39:24, and LOST 21-14. The reason? The stellar passing attack that produced 106 whole yards and 2 INTs. There's your smoking gun, folks.

Hate to say it. Trent isn't the same.

Could it be the age or the injury? Who knows?

I have respect for what he's done throughout his career here, but lately, he's not been playing like the Trent Green of old. I don't blame him entirely because that would be unfair. He came off a pretty serious injury. And lets face it, the offense has changed a bit under Herm Edwards. Could it also be an adjustment thing? He doesnt have Dick Vermeil and Al Saunders guiding him anymore, nor does he have that hall of fame tackle Willie Roaf.

I think it would also help if his receivers properly ran and timed their routes. You see this a lot. Miscommunication between the QB and the WR. Particularily Samie Parker...Uh it makes me sick.

However, his throws are a bit off. I see a lot of times, he underthrows.
And he holds onto the ball waaay too long. It pisses me off. Just get rid of the thing. I question his leadership ability also. I dont think he as vocal as a Tom Brady, or Peyton Manning. And never will be either.

*The Chiefs have to think, lately Green has been playing bad. Think about it for a sec? Last week, Jacksonville had no business being in that game, thanks to those turnovers by Green, that kept them in the game, good thing we still won...but if you do that in the playoffs, on the road, you lose the game. But in reality, what has Green done since he came back? He has led us to a 4-4 record. Thrown 7 TDs, and 9 INTs, QB rating of 74.1...But honestly, he turns the ball over and makes too many mistakes.

*Who cares what he has done in the past? You have to think now!
Right now he's been bad. We're in the playoffs now. HUARD has been playing better than Green, no question, and no comparison. Does he turn the ball over? No. Not like Green has. You gotta think what right at the present moment...Screw Greens track record, he is not the same...And wont give us the best chance to win.

*I know Huard has been lucky. Some of his throws coulda been picked off easily. But, even if they were picked off, his play is still better than the play of Trent right now. No question about it.

I'd be willing to buy that Huard's number are inflated, but quit with the BS about how he doesn't even look very good.

Green's passes look like GARBAGE. Remember that complete duck of a screen pass to Gonzalez? That just typifies Green's season: noodle-armed and inaccurate.

BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? Are you f#cking retarded? If Huard is really the second coming of Christ that you all have him pegged as, WHY HASN'T HE BEEN SIGNED AS A STARTER SOME WHERE? The man is a back up for a reason. Get it through your f#cking skulls. BACK UP. Good God, talk about blind eyes....

No, Green has not looked good, save for the Cleveland game. I do not deny that. However, when it comes down to the big game, give me the guy whith more experience, more heart and more leadership ability. I'll take the man who was running one of the besst offenses in the league over the course of 4 years over the guy who warming the f#cking bench during that time. I'll support the leader of my team even while going through the rough stages, because I know he can shake it off. He shook off 2001 and the TrINT moniker, he'll shake off this season too.

Unf#ckingbelievable. Trent had ought to tell this city to f#ck off. Thankfully he won't. Thankfully he will be under center this week. And thankfully we will win, not in spite of him, but with him.

Why should he tell this city to f*ck off? The guy is making millions here, and fans in any city are of the mentality of "what have you done for me lately?" And Green as much as I like the guy, hasn't done shit for this team lately. I was one of the original people who wanted Green back after injury and I'm willing to admit I was wrong. Green is not the same QB he was pre-injury and Huard has done and exceptional job and is the reason we are in the playoffs as much as LJ.

Now all of this doesn't really mean shit because Herm is starting Green and I hope I'm wrong again a second time.

No. Based on the play of the two QBs over the span of their careers I go with Green for experience. He has been down before and shown he knows how to shake it off. I believe he will. This is most likely his last real shot at a ring as a starter, he'll make the necessary adjustments.

Huard just does not have the experience to fall back on in a big game like this. He is an unknown factor in this scenario. I'll take the leader of one of the top offenses versus a who know's what the hell to expect guy. The playoffs is not the time to start experimenting with the most important position on the offense. You go with the guy that has a proven track record, not the guy who only has a few starts under his belt.

So if Priest was playing would you be pissed that he started over LJ in this game, I mean since he, by your theory would be the more experienced back? In my opinion Trent should start but if he starts throwing picks its time for Huard.

I didn't read all the responses, so maybe it's already covered.

just found this as;

part of an article from Clark Judge on CBS sportsline. Reasons the chiefs are in the playoffs;


When Kansas City lost starting quarterback Trent Green in the season opener, Edwards vowed to change his offense. And he did, putting the group on the back of Larry Johnson and letting the All-Pro carry the club.

But you knew that. What you might not know is that behind the scenes Edwards brought the offense together in the wake of Green's departure, having his running backs meet regularly with the offensive line so that both could get ideas of what was best for Johnson. After all, if Johnson was going to be the featured performer, Edwards thought he and his blockers should know what to expect from each other.

"It was a way of fine-tuning our running game," Edwards said. "In my estimation, there were a lot of yards left out there on the field. When you get people together, you find it's easier for them to speak with each other; it's easier for a lineman to say, 'Here's where the hole will be; just run through it.'"

I think you know what happened. The Chiefs, who went 5-3 without Green, squeezed into the playoffs with Johnson carrying the ball an NFL-record 416 times -- including six games where he had 30 or more rushing attempts.

The formula for success wasn't new; Edwards did the same thing when he lost Chad Pennington in New York. In fact, the coach had his linemen and backs meet together there, too, to figure out what was best for Curtis Martin. Edwards also had his quarterbacks and receivers in the same room, as he did in Kansas City. The idea is to get everyone understanding what's expected of other positions. And it worked.

I don't care that Kansas City had to rely on San Francisco's upset to make it to this weekend. All I care about is that Edwards adjusted to a change in his lineup with a change in his routine ... and he reached the playoffs for the fourth time in six seasons as a head coach. When you're looking for reasons why the Chiefs are where they are, start with Edwards making sure his star running back knew what his offensive linemen wanted.

"It was just something I felt needed to be done," Edwards said.


Notice he didn't say they turned to Huard to save the day. They asked Huard to do his job as a back up QB. They asked the running game to save the season.

Trent is you starter and gives us the best option at QB, end of the Huard arguement.

Trent Green deserves the nod at QB against Indy. If Green puts up a terrible game in the playoffs, then KC can re-think the starting QB for next season. But for all that Green has done for KC the last several years, he deserves a shot at righting the ship.

I'm with others that say Green will neither win or lose this ball game for KC. Just like last time, I think KC's ability to disrupt Manning will be the key. I hope Gun blitzes on every down. At least then, we'll know that KC didn't sit back and let Manning pick them apart.

**I still don't think Solari plays to Green's strength's either. Playaction is what made Green a 4,000 yard passer. Everytime I see Green in the shotgun, I just about puke. Same goes for when LJ runs a sweep play. Green needs the playaction to be successful. Hopefully Solari will get back to that against Indy.

In terms of leadership, the Chiefs haven’t had a leader on Green’s level since Marcus Allen retired.
“The guy is a warrior,” guard Brian Waters said. “People need to realize there are 25 other teams in the league who would kill to have Trent Green as their quarterback.”
http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/sports/football/nfl/kansas_city_chiefs/16359694.htm?source=rss&channel=kansascity_kansas_city_chiefs

"Trent has something you really can't teach," said tight end Jason Dunn. "A person's just got to have it, and he's one of those people who has it. Leadership. He's a natural born leader."
http://sportsline.com/nfl/gamecenter/recap/NFL_20061119_OAK@KC

"There's no question this will test the football team," Peterson said. "Trent Green has been a tremendous leader for us both on and off the field. We're anticipating that Trent will get through this and get well and be back with us.
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/chiefs/2006-09-11-green-concussion_x.htm

DERRICK JOHNSON
On Trent Green as a teammate:
“He’s a leader of this team and to lose a guy like him, that’s big. That’s reality, but at the same time, we’ve got to go to work. We’ve got 15 games left. It’s a long ride.”

Actually Trent gave Samie a pretty stern look after at least one pass on Sunday. I don't think he yelled at him, he just looked at him and the message was sent.

That was one play where it was really better to be at the game. When you watched the replay, it looked like Trent just threw a horrible pass... but watching it develop, you could see Samie was going to do an out pattern and was waaaay late breaking toward the sideline.

I honestly believe Trent can play well Saturday. It has nothing to do with the past 5 years. Well, obviously we have seen him play well. But... the best pass any QB threw Sunday was the pass Trent threw on that flea flicker. That was beautiful. He still has it. He definitely has to cut down on turnovers but I think he is going to go out and do a good job against the Colts cover 2.

Maybe Huard would get us there, I don't know. In some ways I think he's been incredibly lucky. If Kennison doesn't make the catch of his life the other day Huard would've been 1-3 at that point and we probably wouldn't be having this discussion. Meanwhile guys were dropping balls left and right for Trent... Parker dropped one on a crossing pattern he might have been able to take to the house.

Huard did not play that well on the road. I've made this argument 15 million times and nobody even responds to it. He did not play that well on the road. Denver, Miami, and Pittsburgh, he did not really play that well. He completed about 50% of his passes and we scored 2 TD's in those three games, and one of those was in garbage time down by 40 points. Arizona we were down big early and needed some help to come back. St. Louis, 11 of the first 12 plays were runs, and Huard only threw 15 passes the whole game. Against San Diego at home, our defense got three turnovers on a short field for the offense. And we still barely held on.

At least Green was good in prior seasons. Huard is a 34 year old career backup. I'm so glad you can point to a handful of games this season where Huard was leashed tighter than a pitbull, and consider that quality play.

Green is the starter. Green gives KC the best chance of winning. I think the QB who has nearly 27,000 passing yards on our team is the most qualified.

Huard did not play that well on the road. I've made this argument 15 million times and nobody even responds to it. He did not play that well on the road. Denver, Miami, and Pittsburgh, he did not really play that well. He completed about 50% of his passes and we scored 2 TD's in those three games, and one of those was in garbage time down by 40 points. Arizona we were down big early and needed some help to come back. St. Louis, 11 of the first 12 plays were runs, and Huard only threw 15 passes the whole game. Against San Diego at home, our defense got three turnovers on a short field for the offense. And we still barely held on.


It saddens me to see such a respected veteran of these boards use common sense to prove his point. To think at one time I used to look up to you, tk13. :shake:

At least Green was good in prior seasons. Huard is a 34 year old career backup. I'm so glad you can point to a handful of games this season where Huard was leashed tighter than a pitbull, and consider that quality play.

Green is the starter. Green gives KC the best chance of winning. I think the QB who has nearly 27,000 passing yards on our team is the most qualified.

Good for you. I'm sure that if Priest Holmes had been activated and LJ had a bad game, there'd be a ton of CP idiots clammoring for him to get playing time.

It's only your opinion that Green gives KC the best chance of winning, it's not fact. The Chiefs had a winning season under Huard and a .500 season under Green.

Oh, and Huard's 33.

You are correct Huard didn't play well on the road. And Trent hasn't played well either. The difference is that Huard didn't throw costly INT's and Trent is doing it every game.

The Chiefs are a different creature than a year ago. They don't have the guns to shoot it out anymore. They don't need a QB to go head to head with Peyton.They need a QB to compliment the running game and not make mistakes. Huard has done it better than Green this year which is why he should get the start.

No, he had costly fumbles. I know everyone likes to point out Huard's single pick but, let's not pretend that he didn't turn the ball over at bad times.

Well let's see. In the Denver game, Huard fumbled when a pass was batted back to him and he was tackled by Engleberger. Turnover.

In the Miami game, Huard committed ZERO fumbles. The Chiefs lost game without turning the ball over.

In the meantime, the Chiefs went 5-2 with him as a starter. Where are the "Costly" fumbles you speak of?

I actually think both guys could start and I'd feel good about our chances this weekend. If Trent truly is banged up and limping around too badly, we should start Huard. And I agree, Huard makes less mistakes. I expected Trent to throw more than 1 INT, and he has looked a bit rattled at times.

That said, I do think we have to open it up a bit in the playoffs. Not to Al Saunders levels maybe, but spread things out a bit, throw some different looks out there... because I don't think we're as talented as some of these other teams. I know it sounds crazy the way this season has gone, but we are playing to try and get to the Super Bowl now. We scored 35 points on Sunday against a really good defense... we still have the ability to score points. Plus, there probably is some truth to the idea that I would rather go down in flames with Green than Huard. If Huard comes in and gives us another Miami game, that would be a rough way to go out. I know Trent knows he has to cut down on the mistakes, I just trust he's going to be prepared for this game. He knows what the deal is.

I'm thinking he actually had two against Denver, but that has been some time ago so I'm a tad fuzzy on that. NFL.com has him losing 5 of 9 fumbles. I wouldn't exactly call him real safe with the ball if he dropped it 9 times in 7-8 games.

Yes, he did. Part of that can be attributed to the fact that he hadn't played in five years. Five of those were recovered, so there was a total of 5 turnovers committed by Huard in those 8.5 games.

Still not too shabby, especially compared to Green's turnovers 9 Int's, 8 fumbles, 5 recovered for a total of 14 turnovers.

Green hasn't exactly been protecting the ball himself. He has 5 fumbles with 3 lost and to top that off 9 Int's to 7 TD's. Both QB's have been having some real fumbling problems. I would rather go with the QB with less INT's.

As I said before I'm still a Green-backer but there is something up with him post injury, so I would have to go with the more sound QB that is Huard before he was pulled. Will Huard be the same if he gets the nod to play? That remains to be seen. I do know that Green as of late hasn't shown me any consistency and I also know Green is gonna start so this whole thread is pointless.

Four. Four of those fumbles were recovered, not five. Leaving Huard with a total of six turnovers.

So, Huard gets a free pass because he hasn't played in five years but Green gets f#cked over by you because he missed playing and practice time due to a severe injury? No logic, no logic what so ever. You guys are so determined to prove that your opinion is teh right one that you simply throw logic and fairness out the window just you can be right.

Yes, Huard gets a pass for the Cincinnati and Denver fumbles. Second string for 5 years, no time with the first string, etc. Remember, he led the Chiefs to a 5-3 record.

But I'm assuming (since you're turning this into something personal with your idiotic 'man love' comments) that you watch the games drunk and with the comprehension of a 2nd grade student.

Alright dude, if you want to be specific, there was ONE fumble in the Denver game, which was lost. It was a blocked pass that happened to bounce into Huard's arms, and John Engleberger caused a fumble and recovered it. If you want to call that "costly" okay. The Broncos scored a field goal after that, their first of the day.

I have no problem giving Huard a partial pass. But if you are going to do that you have to give Green a pass as well. Fair is fair.

Any turnover is costly in one aspect or another. Even if the other team gets nothing out of it, you sure didn't score any points yourself. And when you are dropping the ball on a consistent basis, you sure become a liability in a hurry. At least that is what you all are telling me about Green, but then we come back to that whole double standard thing....

Oh you don't have to convince me of the accomplishments of Green, I'm well aware. I also have just as much faith at this moment in time in Green as I do Huard. They both have their downsides. Thats what makes this a unique situation and I'm glad I'm not the head coach because I feel that whichever QB he goes with, if we don't win these games, it's pretty much a lose-lose situation.


If I were head coach my choice would be Huard because I originally stated that Green should get the start over Huard and If he plays poorly then you have to go with the more sound QB, which is Huard.


Now when they start Green I hope he plays lights out the way he played last time we played the Colts in the playoffs. I know this is a different situation because we're probably gonna run the hell out of the ball. Running the ball effectively should only help Green succeed in the passing game and maybe it's the stepping stone he needs to get back into his groove.

I'm with you, Johnny. But even though I feel Huard should be starting, his fumbles seemed to be (IIRC), center/QB exchange and QB/RB exchange for the most part (Denver excluded). To me, that's just lack of ball handling time but those definitely fall on his shoulders.

Okay, so "for the most part" doesn't cover any of what I said? Should I go back, game by game for a perfect description? If so, why aren't you held to that standard?

Remember, you stated that Huard committed "Several costly fumbles", not me.

Wow, I guess there's just about a million ways to look at this situation and there's no simple way of determining which QB is better suited to start (and hopefully, finish) on Sunday.

I guess after all of this, I'm glad I'm not in Herm's position. If the Chiefs lose, there will be a ton of fingerpointing.This is the most sensible thing you've said.

I'm in the "start Green" camp because I just feel more confident with him in there. That's just me.

However, I would have no problem if Herm decided to start Huard instead. It's a great situation for our team to be in.

Yeah. They weren't costly. The Chiefs won. I'm good with that. That doesn't necessarly mean Green's playing better than Huard, but you can't pin a loss on him.

Really? I don't think I've torn apart Green's play at all. I certainly haven't detailed each interception or fumble (costly or not), just total turnovers. With Huard, I've actually torn apart his performance to a much higher degree and even with that, I think he's playing better football.

Huard did have many costly fumbles. Green has fumbled as well and has turned the ball over more.

In 8 games Green has been sacked 24 times, thrown 9 Interceptions, fumbled 5 times losing 3 of them. A total of 12 turnovers.

In 10 games Huard has been sacked 16 times, thrown 1 interception, fumbled 9 times losing 5 of them. A total of 6 turnovers.

Green has twice as many turnovers and has taken a lot more sacks.

Bullshit. You've jumped on every opportunity to talk about Green's turnovers (specific detail or not) and yet who was the one who made Huard's fumblitis an issue in this discussion?

Oh yeah, sure, a game where running the ball is going to be the factor and a bunch of tools with Huard's man goo on their faces automatically chalk the game up to a loss because of who will be handing the ball off to LJ. What a bunch of tards.

Has Huard EVER played in a playoff game?

Or this one?

No, Green has never won a playoff game, but neither has Huard. How think that makes him the savior is just plain stupid.

I posted in another thread what starting the guy with lesser experience did for the donks, stop and think about that for moment while you are licking that goo off your lips.

This is QUITE fact based

BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? BLIND EYE TO BETTER TALENT!? Are you f#cking retarded? If Huard is really the second coming of Christ that you all have him pegged as, WHY HASN'T HE BEEN SIGNED AS A STARTER SOME WHERE? The man is a back up for a reason. Get it through your f#cking skulls. BACK UP. Good God, talk about blind eyes....

No, Green has not looked good, save for the Cleveland game. I do not deny that. However, when it comes down to the big game, give me the guy whith more experience, more heart and more leadership ability. I'll take the man who was running one of the besst offenses in the league over the course of 4 years over the guy who warming the f#cking bench during that time. I'll support the leader of my team even while going through the rough stages, because I know he can shake it off. He shook off 2001 and the TrINT moniker, he'll shake off this season too.

Unf#ckingbelievable. Trent had ought to tell this city to f#ck off. Thankfully he won't. Thankfully he will be under center this week. And thankfully we will win, not in spite of him, but with him.

This is deadly accurate:

And if Huard doesn't get the deer in the headlights syndrome and try to throw three f#cking picks in Miami, we win.

I can play the if game too, Johnny.

or this one:

Adult conversations went out the window with Huard obsessors long ago. You guys live in another universe, trying to apply logic to a discussion on the subject with you is a waste of time, I gave up on some time back.

But at the same time many have forgotten about Huard's actual play and that is what my mission here is, to bring a sense of realism to the man, the myth, the legend that is Damon Huard.

This is where you are 100% wrong. I, and others, don't think Huard is a great QB. I realize he played poorly on the road against good defenses. The difference is the turnovers which for some reason you won't, or can't, comprehend as being important.

Really? I never see them mentioned by the Huard crowd. They just like to focus on his one pick. And then when I FORCE the fumbles into the discusion, McCloud thinks there is only one, and acts like I and others are blowing smoke up his ass when we point out others, or they mean nothing because we won those games, even if just barely, still means dick.

Also no one in the Huard crowd likes to look at and compare the defenses that both QBs played against. Yeah, I know, better defenses doesn't mean jack shit in the world of turnovers. :rolleyes:

He can't catch it if it isn't thrown right. Some catches ARE spectacular - and that was definitely one of them, but you are wrong to assert that it was spectacular because it was poorly thrown - it was not.
The ball was way over Eddie's head. He had to reach his arm straight up in the air just to be able to get his fingers on it to tip it, and then he managed to catch it on the deflection.

It shouldn't be a knock on Huard, as he hadn't thrown a live pass in a few months. If he could come in cold off the bench and perfectly drop a 40 yard pass right in over Eddie's shoulder, there probably wouldn't be as big a debate about the QB issue. But that play, and the whole "Huard came in and led us on a TD drive" thing, was 99% Eddie making an incredible catch on an overthrown ball.

No. I was there at Arrowhead. Huard got crushed on his release. If you are an NFL WR making $1 mil a year, you gotta make that catch. Eddie, for whatever reason, reached up with one hand, not 2, and made a spectacular catch. I was there in person, it was not an impossible grab.

I give Huard kudos for even taking the shot down the field.
