The defense won that game by jumping on them early.

All Huard had to do was hold on, LITERALLY, and he almost fumbled the game away.

Because Damon Huard is 34. There is NO future with Huard. NONE.

Play Croyle. At best, he performs great and we move forward. At worst, he BOMBS and we're in great position to draft a QB next year.

I think we should always play the best players let them earn the spot not just give it to them. I understand 100% about getting younger but if BC is not ready he is not ready.

How is he going to be ready without playing?!

Sometimes you have to think about the future.

For example:

At this point in time, Damon Huard is a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10. By giving him playing time, he will improve to a 6.5 by the end of next season. He may even regress, given his age and status.

Brodie Croyle is currently a 4 on a scale of 1 to 10. Looks like a no-brainer, right? Wrong. By starting Croyle now and throwing him into the fire, he improves dramatically, to an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10.

That right there is the reason you start Brodie. Of course, it may not happen. But at some point, you have to reach for possible outcomes, because PROBABLE outcomes just aren't freaking good enough.

The Chiefs aren't going to win it all next year, not with Huard and not with Croyle. Now Huard is ANOTHER year older going into 2008 and Croyle STILL isn't ready.

That is what TC and pre season is for I would let them each start two pre season games. Herm is in a tight spot no matter who starts if they suck people will want the other guy in I just hope who ever they pick starts the whole year.

Amen brutha!!!

For the life of me, I can't figure out why this is so hard to figure out? :shrug:

Exactly. No matter who Herm picks, some faction of fans is going to be pissed.

That's why Herm should throw the idea of pleasing fans out the window and do the RIGHT THING, for the TEAM. Start Brodie Croyle.

Splat420 03-27-2007 12:35 PM

Ok lets say we start Croyle and he just sucks it up then we got LJ and Gonzo all pist off do you stick with Croyle any ways or put in Huard?

Mr. Laz 03-27-2007 01:27 PM

well 810 just replayed some of it


from what i heard one thing is pretty clear, Herman Edwards has no plans to have Trent Green start for the Kansas City Chiefs next year ..... none.

Splat420 03-27-2007 02:06 PM

Yep Herm pretty much talks like Green is all ready gone.

Tough luck IMO.

It depends on how long he sucks. If it's 1 or 2 games, let them pout. His potential with the future is probably 3 times longer in terms of total years than LJ and Gonzo PUT TOGETHER.

Typical Huard Ball Washing comment!!

And before last season, he couldn't even beat out Todd Colins for number 2. Huard did what backs ups do, they don't lose the season for you. But he is not a starter, and for you guys that think he holds the key to the SB gates, you are poorly mistaken. If Huard starts this next season he will be replaced by mid-season unless Croyle just absolutely blows chunks.

Edit: To be honest, I don't think Croyle is the answer either. But I would much rather take a -/+ .500 season with Croyle and at least get the kids ears wet than do it with Huard. Croyle could have potential to grow, Huard is at his potential, and will not be any better. Not to mention Huard gives us 2-5 years tops, Croyle, if he pans out, could be a franchise QB for a long time.

WTF mentioned the super bowl besides you? That's just laughable, this team isn't even going to make the playoffs this year.
