If he threw it to himself, sure.

I'm certain he'd be more accurate on that throw than Cassel, like every other.

Oh no. I feel another "Matt needs more weapons" take coming on.

Look Matt is working out just fine for us this year. He's not throwing picks and doing his job. Great! Maybe we can eek out a playoff win.

But he's not a top tier QB required to win a SB. We're all in agreement there right?

So long term he's simply not the answer.

If you have watched every game Matt Cassel has QB'ed and you've come away thinking "This guy is a legit NFL QB"; then you need to take up another hobby.

He is far and away the weakest link on our entire team. I like his personality. I think he's tough. I root for the guy; but you can paint a turd and it's still just a pretty piece of shit.

In my memory of Croyle, he was more accurate and has the stronger arm. The question is size/health and has he the knowledge of the playbook. If it's marginally close, I don't know why he couldn't do everything that Cassel is doing, and more. -just my .02

How about I keep my own opinion, still root for the chiefs and hope like hell the coaches figure out Cassel isn't the best option for MY CHIEF TEAM! So **** off

I don't think Croyle is very accurate. In fact, in short passes (which the team is stressing right now) the guy lacks any touch whatsoever.

But it's not an either-or decision. Believe it or not, it's possible to have both wins and yardage.

To think that an increase in passing yards would somehow mean we'd be 2-6 is just incomprehensible to me. If Cassel were carrying this team, you might have a point. But our running game is putting up more yards per game than our passing game at the moment. Think about that for a second. We're averaging more running yards per game than passing yards.

As long as we play to our strengths we have a good chance, great run game and great defenses is a winning formula, cassel is obviously not the answer but he is the starter. When the offseason comes around that's when we can start looking at other options, but as far as croyle goes I don't see him as a better option, IMO

What does that have to do with the wins and yardage discussion?

And just because Cassel is the starter, that doesn't mean we all have to shrug and just accept it, and love him for the sake of team affiliation. I love this team and the progress they've made. But that doesn't mean I have to like the turd chucker behind center.

HotRoute 11-05-2010 10:14 AM

Turd chucker....lol, ya I'm not his biggest fan either but I don't see croyle coming in and winning more games than cassel would, and since he's the only other option I think we are stuck with cassel for now. In the offseason it's another story

Just as accurate as Cassel, if he has the playbook, he's might be worth the try.
