I've come to terms with the decision and I am glad Damon Huard is starting...
 

Damon Huard is a stop gap QB with no upside.

Herman Edwards is a stop gap HC with no upside.

The less time Croyle plays now, the more he has left in the tank when Edwards and Peterson are gone.

We still may see Croyle by mid-season.

Huard maybe able to carry us to bye week at 3-4 or 4-3.

:clap:

You're baaaaaaack. This represents real progress - I'm proud of you!

Those posters with less than 70,000 posts are :loser: 's

Maybe we should cryogenically freeze Croyle and thaw him out when we have all the administrators, coaches and players we need to contend.

Make no mistake about it. If we're 3-4 or 4-3 at the bye week, we'll be "in the chase" according to Herm and Carl. Be prepared for Huard to start the entire season.

No chance if we are 3-4 or 4-3 for Huard to get benched...

We would be right on track for that 9-7 and embarrasing playoff loss that KC Chiefs fans covet so much...

Just wondering... will people be mad about Huard starting if he performs well and gets us to the playoffs?

Eh. Doesn't matter which one starts the season- with our Oline all of our QBs going to die.

He did that last year. Were we mad then?

At what cost? to do this agian next year? Huard isnt going to lead this team to a superbowl and we will never know about Croyle will we?

I dont know about you but 14 years since our last playoff win... Status Quo isnt getting the job done is it?

Once DownField Big Game gets there and faces real defenses... What then?

Yeah, you need Peyton Manning-type QBs to win it all. Guys like Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Ben Roethlisberger, Jake Delhomme and Rex Grossman can't get the job done. :rolleyes:

huard is a great story. You have to love a guy who has paid his dues then came in and lit it up. What a story. We were sitting around the water cooler talking about that when he was named the starter. A real working class hero who always was behind the pretty boys. He had all the traits of the great chiefs Then when he got his chance he went out there and fumbled like dave krieg, threw swing passes like bono, and had the mobility of Grbac.

I don't see us being any better than 2-5 by the bye week.
