Here's another stiff who had 27-7 in his third year that maybe you would've cut:

2002 San Diego 16–16 526–320 3,284 .608 17 16 52 24–180 76.9
2003 San Diego 11–11 356–205 2,108 .576 11 15 68 21–178 67.5
2004 San Diego 15–15 400–262 3,159 .655 27 7 79 18–131 104.8



(Drew Brees)?!

Nope, don't care that Pioli's job is in danger. I think his HC hiring decisions have been questionable and that four years is a fair shake. if the team is truly horrible -- say 5-11 or worse -- then the GM could definitely take the fall for that after four years.

I'm just wondering what the "answer" at QB is, since that seems to be the biggest strike against him.

Man, I wish Bernard Pollard hadn't injured Brady... thus, giving Cassel his chance... SON OF A BITCH!!

I don't exactly HATE Pioli, because I think we have a good team right now, but he should have cut Cassel after last season. That's what pisses me off most about him.

No, I'm not comparing Brees to Cassel. Cassel will NEVER be Brees. But that wasn't so clear after a very good 2010 season that Cassel had. Now that's clearly just a aberration.

But I'm pointing out how absurd it is to suggest cutting a guy who had 27 TDs and 7 INTs.

Cassel is a gigantic failure.

That's easy to say.

I think Pioli is on the edge of it, definitely. But I'm asking a simple question -- if his main sin is Cassel, then what realistic alternatives did he have? He correctly assessed, and rejected, Sanchez, which appears to have been the right move.

i wish pollard had taken out their fan base...

and where is that one dumb pats fan who spent the last four years lecturing us for not understanding pioli's genious and cassel's awesomeness?

he never comes around anymore...weird

So you agree? The 27 TD, 7 INT guy should've been cut after his Pro Bowl season?

Wow. I admit I didn't watch the games, but I think that'd be a first in NFL history...

sanchez was obviously the right move, as 2 AFC championship games proves...he walked into your stadium and took a shit on your franchise

but feel free to compare his accomplishments to Cassel's...

and your comparison to brees is embarrassing...don't be that one dumb pats fan

so, you admit to not knowing what the **** you're talking about...but you're here to lecture us anyways?

have you lived and died with every single snap of Cassel's for 3 and half years?

because if not, spare us your bullshit...

I think that's the crux of the matter. Dude won't come off his $60,000,000 bet.

Yeah, that is a major problem IMHO. Not keeping Orton made no sense to me. Some might say he was worried about creating a QB controversy, and I get that, but if your QB doesn't have the confidence in himself to raise his play in the face of competition for the job, then he probably isn't the right guy anyway!

If Pioli intentionally engineered it as "Cassel or Moe, Larry or Curly", then that's a big strike against him IMHO. I have no idea what Orton was looking for, or what other backup options there were, but that would definitely not fly in my book if he did that on purpose.

Jesus Christ, he was an ALTERNATE! PRO BOWLER MY ASS! :banghead:

I don't think you can put aside the Orton option if you're asking what really should have been done.

Not that he was the answer but it was clearly evident last year he was the better QB of the two.
