It doesn't change that people acted like he was awesome, it was laughable.

I hope we get some real talent so I don't have to read posts about how shitty guys are our future and people love them anymore.

I'm just tired of this fanbases fixation with the underdog no talent players.

1. Hes got decent legs and mobility. He knows how to escape.
2. Hes a decent passer in the spread on routes within the 5-10 yard range.

Thats about it. I dont see much to build on. He cant play under center. The only thing hes proven is that he can be an ok backup.

I dont see the improvement that some guys are talking about?? He was horrible in that Cinci game.
I keep going back to one thing:

What does Thigpen do well?

What does he do well?

All franchise quarterbacks have at least one area they excel REMARKABLY WELL in.

Thigpen is a great scrambler.

All that and a bag of chips will get you 1 win.

Yeah, I tell ya' Brock; I made it to your post and decided I'd seen enough of the TF Assclown Brigade washing Thigpens balls.

Five more pages of that shit? No thanks. Let's just cut to the heart of the matter:

You all heard the comments from Scott and Clark regarding Gailey "making the best of a bad QB situation", yes?

This is Pioli's baby now. He's picked his coach and we're off and running. From here on out, Clark goes in to hands-off mode, more or less.

That established, Clark has consistently expressed, from the time of his father's passing, his desire for one thing and one thing only in terms of the roster:

A Franchise Quarterback.

Make no mistake; Clark's "request" WILL be met. And it won't be met with Tyler Thigpen.

Bank It!

Threads like this are pointless.

Pioli isnt dumb enough to stake his entire future and reputation on Tyler Thigpen.

My favorite is to hear Tyler Thigpen get upset Herm was fired and now act like Haley will run the offense for him...

Tyler was right to cry about Herm his firing likely ended him as a starter.

2) Yes, Thigpen could be part of the problem with D's adjusting after halftime. Shouldn't the coaches make adjustments to compensate though? Also, Herm's "Let's run the clock" mentality coming out in the second half sure didn't help the second half.

3) Goal line, this whole team, not just Thigpen has struggled in goal line AND short yardage situations for the last 3 years. Our OL, RB, QB, yound and inexperienced recievers, as well as play-calling all have some impact on that. Truth be known, the Chiefs haven't been good at goal line and short yardage since DV/Saunders/Pre-neck-injury Priest left.


Thigpen is just one of a bunch of players I am wondering how they will perform with a new coaching staff.

You will never get to see how Thigpen does. Competent coaches will never allow it

His arrogance really turns me off.

I can't stand him. He acts like he's some kind of quarterback of the future and has pull in the locker room.

Herm ate his brain.

Herm made all these players on this 2-14 team think they are great players that accomplished something.

Tyler Thigpen talks like the Chiefs were inches from the Super Bowl.

I can't wait to see Pioli and Haley start cutting deadweight.

I want some new busts in here, pronto!

Actually, alot of that is Carl too.

Remember the arrogance of the DV era Chiefs who accomplished exactly nothing, but strutted around like they had multiple ships.

Something that is disconcerting to me is how everyone says Brian Waters is a team leader and he acts like anything good this team does is because of Herm like his comment after Herm was fired

"Where this team goes in the future is due to Herm he built this" or something like that.
