We'll see which is the "real" Cassel.

This.

Even Grossman had acouple of good games. I'll wait til Cassel actually does something on his own in a meaningful game.

If that happens, how would you label him?

A fraud, clearly.

IMO, Arenas has been somewhat of a disappointment on special teams but he's more than made up for that with his play at nickel/corner.

Considering that Washington was a completely wasted pick in 2009, the Chiefs definitely needed an upgrade at nickel, especially with the injury to Leggett.

Theoretically, he should soften the front seven of the opposing defenses and give even more looks to Bowe. If that happens, the Chiefs will definitely have a chance in San Diego.

At least you're honest.

You need to get that word out of your head because you don't know how to use it, clearly.

We'll see which is the "real" Cassel.

I expect him to play well against Denver and struggle against San Diego.

But, that doesn't mean that the Chiefs can't beat San Diego, even if he struggles somewhat.

Injuries and player availability will play a key role in determining who wins and loses that game.

At this point, it doesn't really matter.

He'll be here for the duration of his contract.

So I pray to God that the Cassel of Weeks 11/12 is the real Cassel, and the schmuck who started the other 24 games wearing #7 is gone forever.

no, it won't.

but it will tell us what we need to know about the team.

I find it funny how fans say..well, if he does this and this and this, then I'll give him praise, like their accepted level of praise actually validates him.

furthermore, fans that aren't willing to take the risk, really don't deserve the reward.

I understand that Arenas hasn't been able to break one yet, but the guy holds onto the football and looks natural receiving it back there. That's huge IMO. Everytime we fielded a punt last season i almost shat myself. And he's shown he CAN break it. It's only a matter of time. I think he's paying off.

I definitely think we CAN win that game. I just don't have the confidence that we WILL win that game.

We'll need turnovers, maybe some special teams plays. JC will need to have a monster game.

We can find ourselves up 21 points going into the 4th and still lose; that's how good Rivers is playing.

An average QB.

One that can beat the Sisters of the Poor in the NFL, but can't win the games that matter most.

The last two weeks have shown us that he has the ability to play like an elite QB against bad teams.

Can he replicate that ability against good teams?

Against good teams on the road?

Or in a game in which Charles/TJ get shut down?

Can Matt Cassel perform like a franchise QB when his team needs him the most?

I suppose this would be easier for "God" to grant than making your incredibly simple brain come to the realization that they are the same person. Cassel did not suddenly become something different 2 weeks ago. This has been ongoing the entire season.

If your head is up your ass, and you pull it out and then see light....it doesn't necessarily mean God turned on a light switch....it might mean your head was in your ass.
