Where did he go wrong?
Damon lasted almost a decade as a back up
15-12 record as a starter.
Natty ring and 2 SB rings.
Damon had a pretty damn solid career, especially for an undrafted QB. -

In 92 UW was playing Oregon State which would be the only win of the last 4 games after Billygate. They had a huge lead and Damon got to play and threw a long TD to Theron "Thrill" Hill and in the stands we were like - ok we're good. We'll be back.dnc said:

Brock was even higher rated and in a vacuum probably more talented but Damon was tougher

Damon and Hill and my guy Jason Shelley bode great things for the future.
Little did we know.
Brock definitely had better arm talent but Damon was a fighter. Hopefully Sam has some of that fight in him. He definitely has more talent than his pops did. -
I know you're being sarcastic, but Jake is in mid-season at Fresno State.WoolleyDoog said:Seahawks shoulda signed Haener instead

During the post-game presser, Damon Huard was sitting in Don James' seat. James chased him off and said something like, "You make one good play and suddenly you think you're a star."RaceBannon said:

Apologies if it’s been discussed before but can a more old timer explain to me how and why Damon Huard went undrafted? Especially at a time when QB play was a lot more simple and pointed towards immobile guys.

It's a good question, his 95 stats were actually pretty good, especially for that era.WoolleyDoog said:Apologies if it’s been discussed before but can a more old timer explain to me how and why Damon Huard went undrafted?

Guessing he just didn't wow anybody at the combine. -
Damon looked pretty polished when he came in. What he turned out to be, though, was more of a sloppy, scrappy QB who looked ugly but could be pretty effective. He didn't throw pretty balls like Brock but managed to get them there. He was slow as fuck but a pretty effective scrambler.WoolleyDoog said:Apologies if it’s been discussed before but can a more old timer explain to me how and why Damon Huard went undrafted?

I saw why he didn't get drafted. He made a career though because guys like him make excellent backup QBs.
