Manning threw 28 picks and danced around like pirouetting bitch his first year. Croyle won't be Manning, but this talk of we need to draft a QB in the first and/or bring in a free agent is absolute insanity.
Give him a full year of starting, and if he sucks, then we can go after a QB. It's not like quarterback is the missing link on this team, we have holes at about 15 of 22 positions.

Just give him time. They are handling him with the softest of kid gloves right now

This intemperance is what allows a goon like Carl to still be employed.

If we can let Brodie be a game-managing QB this year (which is essentially what Huard is), then we might be able to be competitive for several years
Hamas apparently also has eternal boners for other shitty QB's as well...

Discuss.
And most recently, Hamas credited Palko with "trying to be a QB".

Seriously? I said absolutely nothing positive about Tyler Palko's ability. I never, ever have.
I've given him credit for two things:
1) Working to improve, which is completely independent of any evaluation of him as a player. He's not Ryan Leaf, he's just an untalented bum who tries really, really hard.
2) Saying "fuck" on national TV after beating ND. [Reply]
