Huard named as Chiefs starting quarterback
By ADAM TEICHER
The Kansas City Star
Damon Huard has won the Chiefs quarterback competition and will start the regular season opener Sept. 9 against the Texans in Houston.

Coach Herm Edwards seemed to be leaning toward starting Brodie Croyle. But Edwards apparently changed his mind after Croyle's disappointing play in Thursday night's preseason loss to New Orleans.

Huard, because of a sore calf muscle, did not play against the Saints. He did not lead the Chiefs to any touchdowns in either of the first two preseason games, but he had some success last season filling in for Trent Green.

Well looks like that debate is over.

The stupidity of the staff never ceases to amaze me. Just when you think they can't get any dumber.

I hear you guys but I think Damon Huard deserves it. He got shafted last year when Green came back. Herm does not want to make another bone headed decision so the safe bet is Huard. I was for Croyle to start but he did nothing but play his way out of the starting position. By naming Huard starter and if he does not play well he can then go to Croyle and not look back.

Croyle made rookie mistakes but the line and receivers killed him too. Huard will be no better.
