KC METRO SPORTS speculates that Chiefs cannot audible
This is 2007, right?
I mean, QBs like Len Dawson, John Unitas and John Hadl used to call their own plays in the huddle and THEN have an option for "check with me" to exploit mismatches. Who is the #1 QB right now? Manning. Who's right there with him? Brady. What do they have in common? Scrambling ability? Cannon arms? 2,000 yd RBs? No. They are coaches on the field who can change the play at the LOS and exploit opponents as they read defenses. Metro Sports reports tonight that Damon Huard (a 12 year vet!!!!) does not have the option to audible. I'm feeling your pain, LJ. ![]() |

Thank God. You think Huard throws a lot of 2 yard passes to Kris Wilson now, just wait until he can check off of the fade to Bowe and audible at the line to Bigfoot.

This is self-inflicted wounding IMO.

The problem is that Huard is not the "pro QB" you speak of. |

The only reason this guy has so few starts is that he has had the unlucky fate of being on the same teams as Dan Marino, Tom Brady and Trent Green (whom he beat out in camp). 90% of today's starting NFL QBs would have to serve as backups to Marino and Brady.

it's nice to be able to audible but you have to have trust in your QB to do that......I wouldn't even trust Huard to audible...

How many QB's do you really think have the control to change plays at the line......I say there's no more than 5-6 that the teams coaches are cool with it.
And we all know Herm and what a control freak he is. |

You critics of Damon Huard are talking out of the PPL. That FACTS are, he has backed up 2 HOF QBs and has a winning record as a starting QB even under Herm "just above .500 is OK!" Edwards.

Actually it probably has a lot more to do with the other players, not the quarterback. Manning and his receivers have that system down like the back of their hand. I wouldn't trust our receivers to know WTF was going on when an audible got called.

I'm sure Brady does it and they have an entirely new receiver group...
