For the most part we agree on those grades though.

I give him a B just for making the roster for two years and appearing as though he was competent in the preseason. Optimistic perhaps.

Wait a sec with all of the negative talk - look at the records of the other teams that started three QBs in a season.................

Rams 1976 Pat Haden, Ron Jaworski, James Harris 10-3-1
Browns 1988 Bernie Kosar, Gary Danielson, Mike Pagel 10-6
Jaguars 1997 Mark Brunell, Rob Johnson, Steve Matthews 11-5


Playoffs here we come baby!! Print-Em!!

And you guys laughed at me because i liked (David?) Terrell, the guy from the Ivy league. He could at least throw the touch pass and orchestrate drives.

Tyler will get better, but for heaven's sake, bring back the playbook we started to use in PS such as what we saw in the Bears game. It seemed dumb to use Huard's sets when Thiggy was under center. let him bootleg, sprint out, and do those counter/trap thingys. Even Huard ran for a 15 yd gain against the Raiders.

That's very unfair to Dustin Colquitt.

We laughed at you because you are reeruned. Terrell isn't even in the league. I love how you latch onto these losers when you have no leg to stand on in an argument as to why they are good.

He's not alone, there are people wishing we still had Casey Printers...

Yeah, the Casey Printers who, in 8 games with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats this year, has:

3 TD's

9 INT's

5 Fumbles

And a QB rating of 64

I have no problem with this move by Herm

IF

they run the offense they said they were going to run in preseason. If they keep running LJ up the center's butt and dropping back to pass in obvious passing situations, it doesn't matter who is back there.

I think this is the right call. Huard sucks, he's old, at least give the snaps to a young guy. Thigpen would not be the first guy to look bad in his first real action in the NFL regular season.

I know, there's not really a good reason to suspect he'll suddenly be an NFL starting QB kind of player. It's a longshot.

But Huard quarterbacking that game does nothing for us. At least if we put Thigpen in there we can learn more about him. If he does better, hey maybe he can play. If he gets more snaps and still plays poorly, well, at least we know.

We should have been playing Croyle last year out of the gate for the same reason.

I agree. The coaching staff is not putting anyone in a position to succeed with this three-play play calling. (will it be run up the middle, 5 yard pass patterns, or a screen pass?)

That sounds like the move is everything about furthering the youth movement by replacing a veteran quarterback with one much younger. But Edwards indicated he believed that playing Thigpen gives the Chiefs their best chance to beat Atlanta.

“We’re not looking at this game as a preseason game,” he said. “We’re trying to win. We’re doing everything we can to do that, and this kid deserves a chance.




Sorry Herm, but Thigpen does NOT give us the best chance to win. There's a reason why he was a 7th rd draft pick. Huard gives us the best chance to win.........Thigpen gives you the best chance to evaluate to see if he's good enough to even play in this league.

One problem.........THESE GAMES ACTUALLY COUNT NOW!!!!!! This isn't the ****in preseason.

God I hate this team sometimes.

So, why was Tom Brady a 6th round pick?

Do you even watch football?

Behind this OL, a mobile QB gives us the best chance to win. Atlanta's front 4, on a fast track, and you want to put a statue back there?

Jesus Christ stop with the Tom Brady comparisons, that happends once in a very great while. Tom Brady also didn't go to East Costal Carolina school of the blind deaf and dumb. He went to ****in Michigan. Thigpen will not ever be Tom Brady.....some people on here are just ****in stupid and are hilariously decieved and blind.

Brady earned his spot on the depth chart. Thigpen orignally was listed as the #2 guy not because of what he showed, but because Herm decided he wanted to go with youth....period, even though its clear that Huard is 10x better QB than Thigpen.

Sure-Oz 09-18-2008 12:18 PM

Thigpen may be off this roster if we had 2 decent QB's

Boy genius:

Not ONCE did I compare Thigpen to Brady.

Merely pointing out that draft position alone is a dumbass way to judge a QB, as well as where he went to school.

Hilariously deceived and blind is thinking that Damon Huard is the best QB to run an offense with a porous OL, than depends on being able to run nakeds, bootlegs and misdirection. Huard can do NONE of these things.

BTW, good job on completely ignoring the rest of my post. Waiting for an response:
