Brady Quinn

**Hayvern** · 10-09-2012, 02:54 PM

If Quinn gets the start this weekend, I am really hoping the kid has found the spark and the motivation to become a quality player in the NFL. He had tremendous talent in college and I feel like he has not really been given a chance with a team behind him. Even when he was starting in Cleveland he was always jerked back and forth between Anderson and Quinn. In Denver he never was really considered for anything.

I think we can all agree that Stanzi is just not the guy, so I hope that Quinn takes this opportunity and comes out strong. We are not out of the playoff race and if Quinn can take control and lead this team through the rest of the season, we have every reason to believe we could still make the playoffs.

It's an article about the Baylor vs West Virginia game. Geno doesn't make a snarky comment, doesn't come off as a punk. I haven't seen a single instance of this so I'd like to see a video or some kind of news article. Not doubting just want to educate myself so I'm not pushing for Geno if that's true.

But my bigger question is are you really going to judge a QB because he "taunts opposing fans"? If so then Matt Cassel screams mentally weak too. He told his own fans to "shut the **** up".

While there's still a lot of football to go and then the whole interviewing process I think Geno will be vetted between now and the draft. Until then his football games and stats are all I have past this article.

You have doubts that Cassel isn't mentally weak? Do you think Cassel was a QB worth risking a top 5 pick on? I didn't even think that was up for debate. It wasn't just fans Smith got into it with... it was H.S. seniors who were there as UT recruits that he talked **** to the entire 4th quarter... he wasn't even taunting adults...

Guys who operate strictly out of the shotgun are ALWAYS more accurate than drop back NFL style QBs. RGIII comparisons fall way short. If the Chiefs are gonna take a QB in the first, the best they can hope for is the next great bust to come out of USC.

I'm with Jap 1. I do not care who starts-I'll keep rooting-probably swearing at the TV-but rooting none the less. We're not where we thought we would be, but it isn't over.....yet. It's a new chapter for Chiefs fans.....time to turn the page.

If we draft a qb outta LA Monroe with our number 1 pick...... I will kick my dog.... HARD!!! Lol, Jk!! Maybe....

Until the combine who knows. He's only a junior. But he beat arkansas and lost to auburn and texas a and m by a total of 8 pts. He's played top level talent and has succeeded.

i really don't know what to expect this week with quinn starting.he has never really been a starting qb whereever he was.he never was given a shot anywhere.now im not a fan of quinn but im not a cassel fan either.cassel is nothing but a decent backup qb.we blew it in the draft this year as we could have has a good qb but now in this next class of qb's in the next draft there are none i would want to start and build a team around.so either we are stuck with cassel or we trade for a qb in the league and i don't think there is anyone available so we are dead in the water for several years.clark hunt is very cheap when it comes to getting quality players so don't expect him to go looking for a class qb anytime soon.before we find a qb we will have lost most of our decent current players that we have now,bowe believe me will not be a chief after this year,he seen the writing on the wall and that is why he didn't sign a contract because he knows he is going elsewhere and that is by choice.so get ready for some long years ahead of rebuilding and i mean a long time.

Well as always time will tell what Quinn can do, but just remember Kurt Warner was working in a grocery store, called up to back up Trent Green. You never know until the time plays out. I remember thinking Trent was going to be a bust, just because we dominate him and the Rams the season before he became a Chief. Timing in life, and careers. I hope it is right timing for Brady and our team.

A lot of draft pundits have said that this is going to be a relatively deep QB class this year.

I hope he has a great game and turns this team around. But the reality check is, he's no more quality than Cassel. As it seems every year, perhaps it's better if they just tank all together, reconsider the coaching decisions they've made, and find a real QB in the off-season. I know that's harsh, nobody wants them to lose! But we are 1-4 and our only offensive play now is, Charles left, Charles right.

Quinn will make the most of this opportunity or he knows he's probably done in the NFL. He's been waiting 3 years for this. I expect him to do well and the Chiefs to win in Tampa.
