A win on Sunday is an enormous loss in the big scheme of things.

i agree. no one is worse than Cassel.
even if there was a worse QB i doubt i'd ever admit it. ROFL

This !

Pioli is just thinking about Cassels health, they can't afford to get him hurt and devalue his trade stock....they'll get a kings ransom for such a quality NFL starter. :)

I don't give a damn. Just because my enthusiasm for my team has waned doesn't mean that my hatred for the enemy has.

fuck the raiders.

That's fair.

Chiefs fans have successfully bullied the franchise into benching Cassel.

Congratulations Chiefs fans.

Internet high five!

I don't think we have to worry. I think the game will be out of reach by the end of the 3rd quarter. :shake:

I really don't think it was the fans' doing. It was going to happen no matter what. Matt's turnovers and the 1-5 start did him in, not the fans.

I'd let the entire metropolitan KC area loathe me for that job. Sure why not. You guys can all go **** yourselves for 63 million dollars. :p

Missing Cassel

I’m led to believe most of the people cheering as Matt Cassel was helped off the field last week are now filled with remorse, not because they cheered an injury you understand (they’re unrepentant about that), but because they now realize the grass is not always greener. Brady Quinn’s (-2.9) display was significantly worse than anything Cassel served up this year, and was particularly poor considering he had such good protection. Only a couple of hits and five hurries could be pinned on his colleagues and he was pressured on only 10 of 30 drop-backs.

Under pressure he managed only four completions for 27 yards and an interception, but it was his work against the blitz that set a new benchmark for futility as he managed a QB rating of zero. Sure you can’t pin the interception returned for the TD on him, but you can hold him accountable for the five times he managed to throw the ball behind his receivers going across the middle and the dropped interception by Ronde Barber with 10:34 left in the fourth.

You mean like the Chiefs have started out this year?

It's interesting. We saw this last year as well with the fans essentially forcing the Donx to start Tebow. It goes to show the fans do have a level of influence when heard.

I fully expect the entire front office and coaching staff gone by seasons end barring a miraculous turnaround...

I believe it was the fans.

If they would've trotted Cassel out there again on Sunday the fans would have no mercy.

When the fans boo like that, it's an embarassment to the franchise. It's a nationaly televised slap in the face and it would only piss the fans off even more.

Classic case of winning the battle and losing the war.
