He sounds like he will be the man once he pass his physical... :yahoo:
...I'd name him a start over Thigpen and Huard....
Gray had 10 TD's last year with only 4 starts...and played in 8 games total...better than any of our other QB's riding the bench.
When is the soonest we could see him in a game assuming he passes his physical...?
I like where it said after 7 punt for 40 some odd yards!!!! punter sounds like what we need more then a QB!!! LMAO
Here we go....a QB who can throw is more than 5 yards!!!!

nice! I know all we will here is how bad any qb will suck with our oline. But damn we needed to do something after croyle went down. Huard is old and feeble, and Ingle is not ready for the NFL yet ( herms words ). Thigpen needs to play too , I think he can be good in time. But we have to have people to play the position . Good thing its gonna be a 6'3 254lb stud that is 29 and has little wear and tear so hes as good as maybe a 23-24 year old , hes fast , has a cannon . So whats the downside ? Hes not a crybaby like Dante when things dont go his way !
Yes. Let's all get excited about another QB, who we will all be complaining sucks so bad after a few games.
Gray might be a pretty good QB. But we aren't going to know, because everyone will be crowning him as the 'Glass Vigina' soon enough.
He'll be getting booed out of town soon enough. Just like anyone else who has tried to play behind our nO-Line.
Then we can do it all over again, when we sign Harrington, after a few more weeks.:yahoo:
Holy crap. This is a great (and probably cheap) pick up! How soon can we expect to see him on the field?
...sounded like you arent much for this move...I could be wrong.
...I for one think it is a good move. We need a QB. We didnt waste a draft pick on one. He is not going to have a budget breaking price tag on him....And now we have a QB who can throw it beyond 5 yards...excited...why not?
...ya he is going to get sacked behind this line. But at 275lbs....I wouldnt classify him as a 'glass vigina.' :sign0098:
Quinn Gray sucks.We don't need him.
i say quinn grey couldn't hurt let's try it he did produce a littlle in jacksonville didn't he? i can not remember what his record was
I believe that has only been said about one QB and he happens to be the one QB on the team that has been injured since high school. But maybe that is because we have a bad O line, and he did in college too...oh and in high school. Or maybe he just has a glass vagina.
Thank god. There aren't enough people saying we suck!! In fact, I may have even forgotten it a bit over the past couple of days and I am excited about watching the Chiefs on Sunday. A little time away from this place is nice. BTW...Thunderstorms suck but the odd lightning strike is pretty cool to watch. We will win more games this season.
There is really nobody to pick up.Quinn Grey is not a answer.If it came down to it then Culpepper would've been the only option at 3rd but we don't really even need him as well.Herm should've drafted Colt Brennan because our current situation as of now would've been solved while having him with us.Keep our 3 guys and let's just hope Damon's thumb gets healthy.
Hawaii is my college football team, and I watched a ton of Colt Brennan in college. While I loved watching him throw to a corp of Bob Marley lookalikes, he'd be a terrible fit, especially right now. The guy has an even smaller build than Croyle, and had the benefit of a great o-line in college.
I think he could amount to a decent pro QB, but I doubt he'll ever be close to a pro bowler. Gray should at least be able to take a few hits without having to be taken to the locker room.
That is exactly why he would be a horrible fit right now. Our QBs are getting smashed left and right. A 200 lb QB hardly helps matters. I would agree that we should have drafted a quarterback, that was just terrible planning on the part of management. It was a good draft for the most part, with a few serious question marks: Morgan/Franklin/Robinson over linemen/QBs in particular..
Thigpen is terrible, but if nothing else he's big enough and elusive enough to avoid getting murdered in the pocket.
I am not against picking up Gray. But I don't see it as anything ,ore than picking up any other cast-ffs from any other team.
And he could 375 lbs, and still get his world rocked, by a blind-side hit from an average DE.
But every QB that we have played since Herms arrival has been hurt. What makes them less of a glass vagina?
If you don't want to read what I have to say, then why do you? I know that you don't expect me to be all excited about Quinn Gray. Do you?
Admit it. You love to agonize over my negativity, don't you? :D
Quinn Gray is better than all the other QB's on our roster, combined.
His chances of success with this team is minimal but we may at least get some first downs.
Okay, THIS time I have to agree with you; this is GREAT news.
Just some cursory observations:
Very athletic. Doesn't throw a "hard ball", but in the case of our receivers, that might end up being a good thing.
And thank God; he can SCRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMBLE! :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
A Manning understudy who is chomping at the bit to carve a name for himself? You bet your A** I'll take that in a New York Minute!
Let us hope that the "Manning Tantrum Blame Game" doesn't come with him.
See you two, it's NOT about being "negative". It's about expecting your franchise to make smart and good moves.
For now, this is smart and good move.
The ONLY good and smart move prior to this signing was the draft itself.
Make no mistake; Gray and everybody else has to prove their worth. That said, I like Gray's chances a hell of a lot better than our current 'Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse Who Can't Produce An Apocalypse'.
That's a good name for those four losers; just like the sects that run around crying "The End Is Near"( still waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiting ), we'll all be getting dressed up each week in anticipation/fear of "The Last Days"( which never come )waiting for any consistent productivity out of those four sad-sacks.
Call the Janitor, and SWEEP THE LOCKER ROOM!
I too think this might be a good pick up. He was able to put up some decent looking numbers when he got a chance to play.
According to KCChiefs.com looks like we have come to terms with Quinn Gray. I for one am a little excited to see what this guy can do. Lord knows we have had very little good play at this position thus far.
I hear ya'.
But even MORE SO, I want some Chiefs fans to see what a legitimate QB can do WITHOUT the much-ballyhooed "Perfect O-Line".
Everyone of those four 'yard sale pick-me ups' has had near, or JUST AS MUCH TIME IN THE POCKET AS ANYBODY ELSE.
The difference between those idiots and a real QB, is that a REAL QB makes snap decisions with authority and effectiveness, and always has a back door.
Pocket-Squatters drive me up a f*cking wall; that sh*t is USELESS.
The Four Dipsh*ts plant themselves in the backfield like little old ladies shopping for fruit in the produce section. And then there's Thigpen Sanders-Holmes, who seems hell-bent on running himself in to a Coma and a nice, comfy suite at the KU Medcenter.
So many fans haven't seen a Quarterback on this team for so long, they've forgotten how the position is supposed to be played.
How can anyone say that Quinn Grey is a good QB? If he was someone to be watched, why hasn't anyone else snatched him up? Why would someone just toss a good QB away?
I can only go by film and numbers at this point. But from what I've seen, his form, reading, and athleticism have put him above everyone else posing as QB and collecting a paycheck from One Arrowhead Drive.
In my eyes, he had those fools beat hands-down before the ink dried on his new contract.
Well, he will probably play within the next ten days, so my question is this..
What do you do if he does get injured after a game or two?
Is he suddenly a 'never-was'? Is it just another magical fluke? Or did he used to be great, but then decided to suck balls for us? Or do you make up some other excuse, so that you can continue to ignore the real problem?
I like Gray. He might be a decent QB. I am not excited to see what he can do, because I have very little faith that I am going to be able to see what he can do.
Maybe, if we act right during this off-season, I will get a chance to see what he can do next season. I doubt it, as I have zero faith in this team to address the o-line properly. But that is the hope that I see for Gray.
The statement about our QBs having just as much time in the pocket.. is ludacris. There is no way that you have ever watched any of this team. Either that, or you need to finish removing the rose-colored glasses from that Coalition place.
But hell, as long as we are going to fantasize, that o-line is busting-open the same running lanes as every other unit in the league too. In fact, offensive linemen make absolutely no difference whatsoever. One o-line is just as good as the next. No NFL QB has any more, nor less, time to throw. That is all just make believe.
If you were looking for something to argue about, all you have to do is say stupid s*** like that.
