This is what we've been waiting for. This is the 16 week preseason I talked about. It is something that needs to happen for this organization to grow. It is needed to answer pressing questions, and so far this season Damon Huard has stood in the way. The insatiable desire to win now has prevented this preseason unit from really reaching its potential. The Chiefs are a young, inexeperienced subpar team. But with Huard at the helm -which is what we had with the Brodie Croyle experiment officially done- this team would remain subpar with no growth or development.
Now Thigpen's the man. Now he can go out, take his lumps and maybe become the QB of the future. "But we'll get embarrassed!" sayz Joe the Chiefs fan. Well, in case you've been living underneath a rock -and many of us wish we had- you might've noticed that we are passed the stage of embarrasment, and all but a handful have reached subtle apathy. We are down, just kick me and go away, Sunday. But with Thigpen (man, I wish his name were Pigpen) we might have the quaterback of the future, even if it is a 1% chance. It will finally be a complete unit developing together. With Huard, there's a 0% chance. Sure he gave us the best chance to win now, but why? To get a lower draft pick? All he did was kept our offense unit in a vacume waiting to gel. Now there's no waiting. Thigpen's the man. And we can get down to finishing this very expensive preseason.....
