If you do do, I'll give you props. Until then, I call a big BS.

I know people are going to bitch, bitch, bitch but for 7th round QB who was waived from his team who played against 1-AA competition, the kid has performed beyond my expectations.

Huard's a washed up, never was. Tyler Thigpen is young player who put the Chiefs in a position to score 4 times in his second start and scored twice.

Let him GROW. He played better this week than last week and my guess is that he only gets better.

Huard only gets hurt. And hurts the team.

Do any of you actually think that Tony Romo would have performed better if he had been forced into starting for the Cowboy 3 1/2 seasons before he played?

I don't think he would have done as well, frankly.

And you want to bench that guy in favor of a 35-year-old Never Was with a noodle arm? Seriously?

Huard wouldn't have last 3 series yesterday against that pass rush. Thigpen's running and escapability yesterday is what gave the Chiefs a chance to score.

See, Thigpen actually has a chance to become a solid NFL QB. Huard's had his chance and failed.

It may take him the entire season. Or a few more years. Who knows? But he's got far more upside than Huard. He's also got youthful enthusiasm.

I'll take all of that any day of the week over Noodle-Arm. Warts and all.
