I saw this post ranking the NFL’s 10 worst quarterback depth charts of the past 10 years and couldn’t resist the click. The Kansas City Chiefs, who between Trent Green’s last season in 2006 and Alex Smith’s first season in 2013 suffered through some of the worst extended quarterback play imaginable, were bound to turn up more than once.

To my surprise, the Chiefs show up only once. The 2008 Chiefs, with Brodie Croyle, Damon Huard and Tyler Thigpen, come in at No. 6.

The 2008 Chiefs were 2-14, so that team deserves recognition in some way. Croyle was injured twice and Huard once, leaving the job for Thigpen, who did a decent job that year considering the rotten circumstances around him.

The funny thing is, those 2008 Chiefs might not have had the worst bunch of quarterbacks the franchise has had in the last decade. The 2007 Chiefs, who used Croyle and Huard, deserve a mention. So do the Chiefs in 2009 (Matt Cassel, Croyle and Matt Gutierrez), 2010 (Cassel, Croyle and Tyler Palko) and 2012 (Cassel, Brady Quinn and Ricky Stanzi).

That 2012 group of quarterbacks gets my vote as the worst Chiefs’ bunch in the last 10 years. But there is plenty of room for discussion here, which is a sad fact for Chiefs fans. But that’s what happens to a franchise that hasn’t drafted a quarterback in the first round since 1983.
