And yes, the DEF looked like shit, but they were put in a bad position because the special teams sucked & offense couldn't move the ball all day. Not to mention they knew they had to play perfect because offense wasn't scoring. Lot of pressure to put on 1 side of the ball.

That said, **** Cassel, and I wouldn't mind tanking this year to get Luck/any franchise QB.

How many of those players did Pioli draft?

He really did.

He was only legitimately pressured 4 or 5 times today, and the sack he took that put Succop (who isn't getting any better) out of his range might have been more stupid than the sack that broke his rib.

HE'S TOUGH!
HE'S A TEAM GUY!
HE'S A HARD WORKER!
HE'S NOT A STARTING QB!

That's not how you build a quality team. How many high priced FAs did Pioli grab in NE? His FA were moderate signings or guys off the scrap heap.

How many does PIT get? Indy?

Gaither, Gregg, and Breston aren't bad moves.

Stop pissing and moaning based on one game.

its times like this that makes you wonder how we got as lucky as we did with trent green. He wasnt a real flashy qb, but he was a top 5 quarterback in this league. Damn, I miss those days.

The hilarious part....our OL pass blocked pretty well.

so even after 30 years of fail, you'd rather they didn't try?


i'll never understand this....people would rather suck with shitty QBs then draft a bust in the 1st round


meanwhile, teams that want to win, draft first round QBs until they get it right

Trent Green put up top 5 numbers, but he was what he was because he had weeks in the pocket with that O-Line.

He was, however, a legitimate NFL Qb, which can not be said about Cassel.

It was abolutely miserable performance by Cassel, and there isn't any excuse for it.

Yea, lets continue to do it the herm way....Most of it has to do with the coaching.

Pit was a solid program, and has been for a while, as are both the colts and patriots. They are the clear exception to the norm.

The fact is, we need proven free agents.

If we did it you way during the vermiel years, we would have never landed Roaf, Holmes, Green, etc. We need to be more active during the free agency period than we have been.

Dont get me wrong, the draft is important, but you dont build championship caliber teams solely through the draft.

Barry Richerdson's farts confused Cassel.

You can't refute that.

kcpasco 09-11-2011 02:34 PM

Cassel needs to be bagging groceries. At this point I wouldn't even call him a legitimate back up.

Hammock Parties 09-11-2011 02:35 PM

After watching today I don't know how Cassel went 27/7 last year.

Weis is a wizard.

Go back and look at the SB winners for the last 10 or 15 years.

All of those teams were built through the draft, with very little free agent impact.
