What's with the Thigpen fixation?

In other words, he got worse, not better. He's not an accurate passer and doesn't particularly have a strong arm. If I were the new GM or coach, there's no way I'd pass on a possible franchise QB in Stafford or Sanchez because Thigpen was already on the roster.

I'm not advocating that the Chiefs cut him altogether. He may improve and learn how to quickly read defenses behind center but, I wouldn't take that bet.

of course it did, they had to throw together an offense, and had limited plays..coupled with the fact with crappy second halftime adjustments..what did you expect..you alreeady claimed they suck yet the the guy threw for 2k in eight games. on a limited game plan and had the chiefs competitive in most games.
