Why the heck was he released? The guy was electric during preseason and has a great record from the CFL.

I am starting to lose faith in QB choices by Carl Peterson.

I agree with the decision to keep a known commodity on the bench during preseason games that don't matter.

They didn't need to see what Huard can do in games. They needed to evaluate Croyle. So Croyle had his shot. To say that Huard performed as badly as Croyle during the preseason is to condense useless statistics into percentages from games that don't matter. Had Huard been on the field for three quarters of play in any preseason game, he may have found some rhythm. As it was, there was no need to risk injury to a guy you don't really need to evaluate in game-time.

They know what they are getting with Huard. I trust the decision. Herm gets paid a lot more than I do to field a cometetive team. It's easy to do in Madden or in fantasy but that doesn't make somebody football's Nostradomus.

WHy would you give Croyle a shot then? You've got the second best QB in the league. WOuldn't you automatically start him without question?

Why is the Croyle/Huard argument still going on?

Canada, until the season starts and Huard leads the Chiefs to victories the debate will go on and on and will actually get more and more heated if he does not do well. It actually all started about the releasing of Printers. You and I both know about the talent pool in the CFL.

Sorry....I guess this same quote over and over and over is what I am really wondering about. When we are done why don't we all go out and beat a dead horse??

I'm never going to get an answer, so I'm done. Sorry for any displeasure I've caused.
