Same here; I'm hoping they surprise me.

Just to clarify:
He had 2 picks in 2 games. That extrapolates to 16 picks (assuming we don't make the playoffs & 16 picks will help that come true).
*BUT* 16 picks is saying he will throw one per game. In preseason he averaged not only one per game, but I think one per every other POSSESSION. Let's say 10 possessions a game (and if he throws a pick on a fourth of his drives on the first play, that might be safe). Extrapolation gives us 10 possessions per game times 1 interception per 2 possessions which equals 5 interceptions per game. Multiple it by 16 games per season (again a safe bet), and you get 80 interceptions in 2007.
I don't think he'll do that bad (or if he does, no one will be there to see the last 50 or so), so let's split the difference and say somewhere between 6 & 80.
If you do stupid stuff in preseason, I don't know why you wouldn't do stupid stuff in regular season. That's why some guys get cut....
NOW: I think he will get better. Nature says he has to (he must change to survive). From his touchdown drive last game, he has great skills and can be a big winner. I have no doubt in years to come, he will be a very capable QB in the red & gold and I will be very happy to have him.
The question is how long does it take him to lose the desire to throw stupid passes. This is the learning curve we will all suffer through.
(Huard had skills and no learning curve --> just thought I would throw that in....)
You are the one who said 1 or 2 stupid interceptions every 3-4 games. Do the math, be realistic. I was just saying at that pace we still are not that bad. The losing Super Bowl QB last year threw 25 picks (preseason included) not to mention all his fumbles, and they still made it to the bowl. All I have been saying the whoooooole time is that huard is not the great qb that is going to solve the offensive problems for the Chiefs.

Agreed. You have convinced me. I now think we should start Croyle. This is why all of my Arrowhead cash is on him. (and because of Huard's injury....)
