It's not like we didn't have 58 million in cap space and didn't make a huge splash in the 1st day of FA with some big name talent to spend some of that cash right? Think outside of the box now and then and realize there is always more than one way things could have gone behind closed doors that you had no key too.

What you are saying is the more likely scenario and I have said that over and over in this thread but just because it seems to be the cool trend around here to say Thigpen is nothing and treat that opinion as a fact dismissing other opinions on the subject as arrogantly as possible does not make all the message board know it alls right.

Again like I have been saying I don't care who steps up to the plate as long as they hit the grand slam and give our team what it has not had since Len Dawson and that is a true franchise QB of our own that is not just another recycled veteran with only a few years left in him.

Yes, because the Chiefs absolutely needed to shell out a 2nd rounder and 15 million to provide Thigpen competition.

If your opinion sucks, I will dismiss it.

Thank you for attempting to give me an education lesson on how this message board works. You might want to get the stick out of your ass if you want to survive on here.

That's sort of like saying New England traded a 2nd for Welker and a 4th for Moss so they could "compete" with Troy Brown and Chad Jackson.

You don't trade the 34th pick for guy with a $15 million price tag and then make him your backup. The competition ended the second the trade was announced, and probably a lot sooner than that.

I think he was an excellent 3rd QB last year. If you can find an example of a 3rd QB doing better I'd love to see it.

And that after the NFL equivalent of being raised by wolves.

I can't think of anything else to say to Croyle other than the tampax 'er in the mail and that the biggest play you ever made was on yer' wedding day.

I'm happy dumping Croyle and hoping that a spread-dog can learn new tricks...
