Brady Quinn getting half the first team reps
 

I am surprised this hasn't been posted yet, but according to the radio on 610 this morning, (Bill Maas and Fescoe) Quinn has been getting about 50% of the first team reps in practice this week.

In the short term this is certainly a good thing because Quinn certainly can't be worse than what Cassel has been so far. But I wonder, what if he starts and does decent? Decent enough to warrant not drafting a first round QB next year. I really want the team to win but I want it to be like last week against the Saints every week where we win in spite of the QB, not because of him or with him really contributing. If Quinn does decent will that preclude them from going hard after a QB next season? (If they ever were going to at all).

*EDIT* I found the podcasts where they talk about this. It starts at about 15:10.

http://www.610sports.com/topic/play_...udioId=6054578

Fescoe asks him how RAC feels about Cassel and so they talk about it. At around 15:10 when they talk about it Maas say, "They are keeping their options open...," then he goes on to elaborate around 15:45,

Then they talk about it a little more around the 18:00 mark.

Game 6

finally a glimmer of hope, not saying Quinn will win games and be a FQB but he can't be any worse than what we've been watching for 3 years plus.

If Quinn is "decent" then we try our hardest to get the best QB possible including trading up.
If Quinn does "amazing" then we only draft a QB if one falls to us at our spot. We do not trade up for one.

Brady Quinn is better than Cassel.

We will have a QB to be excited about next year. Regardless of what happens.

I'm fine with this. I just can't even stand seeing Cassel's face anymore.

I'd love to see the Chiefs give Quinn a shot. Even if it's not better we already have a full sample pool of what Castle is capable of at this point. Let that ass clown march off to the bank with his middle finger in the air and get him the **** out of town.

You won the power ball ass hole, now leave.

Even if Quinn has a big year.....we still need to draft a QB in the 1st round. Let him sit for a year and then open up the competition the next year. At the very least....Quinn would be a good #2 QB if he loses the competition.

Let go Mighty Quinn!

Receivers will not be able to adjust to not having to jump and reach for all throws.

LMAO

At least we know this.....if Quinn goes in and does the same thing that Cassel has done.....he's not sticking around.

As practice is concluding..."Hey Brady, go out for a swing pass." /Cassel

I saw he was coming up on nfl AM this morning and changed the channel.

Don't think anyone is expecting miracles but it would be nice to see a QB that could look past his primary reviver as opposed to a deer stuck in the headlights.

He can't possibly be worse. I'm confident in saying cassel is the worst starter in the league at qb

somewhere at this very moment Pes is...

I'd rather Quinn throw those interceptions than Cassel, to be honest. At least they will be pretty passes from Quinn.

After watching Weeden last night I concur. Gabbert is the only competition and he is still young

I think it just moved.

At least Todd Collins knew his role. Matt is lady boo boo trying out for Victoria Secrets.

Anyone else reporting it? I don't see it anywhere.

I'm worried its BS

Wow. Spider Man needs to start hitting the mountain bike trails.

If Quinn is as good as Kolb, we make the playoffs.

Quinn is an interception machine. I know we're desperate for a real QB, but c'mon folks

Go **** yourself.

So ****ing dumb that there is not a better choice - like say Orton - after all the "TALK" about competition in the off season.

Yeah - but he's better than Cassel.

We know what we have isn't working.

Work our way through what we have and see who shows up...

we know have nothing with Cassel, i'd rather take my chances with Quinn.

I don't necessarily know about that.

Orton was...

Yep. Cassel has had ENOUGH time. We KNOW EXACTLY what he is.

People are just desparate to get rid of Cassel. Remember people going nuts when Cassel was out for the year and Palko came in?

So quickly that people forget how bad Quinn was in preseason.

I wasn't able to watch the NO game; did Cassel stink up the joint?

I agree that Casshole isn't the answer, but neither is Quinn. If he were any good, he'd be starting instead of riding the pine behind Casshole

He was both the worst of what we'd expect and at the same time was oddly able to hit the short routes in clutch time.

So...I'd grade him a C-....

quinn sucks dick

but whatever it takes to get rid of cassel

Hyeah, BUT if he fails, KC can always play out the string the rest of the season with Cassel.

Where exactly are we going with Cassel?

LMAO

That Spider guy ... wow. Must have been a big-ass fly.

Anyhow ... so, this is unusual? Quinn getting 1st team reps? I wonder what fostered this deal?

The sight of poor, little McDervish all busted up and alone is just too much to bear?

Yep. It's called "BETTER BAD CHOICES."

Well at least our coaching staff has identified the problem with this team. Thank god.

Quinn is a lot better than Tyler palko. Not even in the same ballpark. Tyler palko would barely make a CFL roster

Sunday, Sept 30 12:41 pm Arrowhead Stadium:

BRADY, BRADY, BRADY, BRADY

If Haley were still here we'd be getting the "he's tough! He's pushing our guys to get better through competition!" speech...

Nowhere, the same place we're going with quinn

Does anyone have or know where to get a 2X Quinn jersey? I will wear it Sunday to the game.

One thing about Quinn is that he has never really had a team around him. He isn't the long term answer in all likelihood but he at least has a bigger arm than Cassel.

So.....

I've said it before.....he's the perfect QB for a Daboll run offense.

This.

He's also inaccurate.

He's also bad about locking on to a WR.

So at at worst we have a stronger armed guy with better mobility locking on to a target before the checkdown.

I'll take it...

I couldn't find it either. But according to Fescoe and Maas, it is what has been happening. It shouldn't be too big of a surprise with Crennel favoring Quinn, acknowledging he doesn't believe in Cassel, and Cassel's bad play so far.

Okay, THIS is news. It has all sorts of implications, both short term and long term.

Already did it.

Twice.

Both Cassel and Quinn suck. Cassel is a ****tard, and Quinn is one of the top 5 busts in the past 10-20 years.

"You hired me to coach this team - I'm coaching it.

I'm ****ing 137 years old. You don't like it fire me and pay my contract and my SS wages..."

I don't think Crennel really favors Quinn though. He let Derek Anderson start over him in Cleveland.

Top 5? Really? I can think of at least 10 more players that were bigger busts than Quinn.

We may as well let Casshole prove to pissholy without a shadow of a doubt that he has to draft a QB in the first round in April

Has Quinn even started 16 games?...

:spock:

Who cares!!!!! This does not mean we are Superbowl bound or even playoff bound.

The point is we won't have to watch Cassel anymore!!!!!! We will be getting a new QB next year. This is the point.

Rejoice the Cassel era is coming to an end and it just might be sooner than we expected.

Exactly.

1st round QB that has been on the bench for the vast majority of his career. You don't call that a bust?


Put it like this.... Jamarcus Russell had more yards in one year than Quinn has in his career. Flip that any way you want, that's pathetic.

I knew it would only be a matter of time. Quinn was about to come in before Charles' 91 yard TD run. He was on the sideline with his helmet on then Charles went all Katrina on New Orleans thus momentarily saving Cassel from the inevitable. It's coming. They can't hide Casse's suckage anymore.

Good point. In comparison to Cassel though he seems to FWIW.

Quinn is a upgrade .. but that's not say'n much .....

This is all that it really means. And even that is somewhat of a stretch. It could simply just be a motivational tactic. We'll see.

And if Quinn does get the start at some point, i highly doubt our offense will be any better, but it will at least mean the Cassel era is officially over.

How I wish you were Scott Pioli.

To the casual observer, you appear meek and mild, Mr. mr. tegu. But it appears that, in reality, you can leap conclusions in a single bound.

Why would Crennel choose this moment in time to consider replacing Doofus #1 with Doofus #2? I mean, we just won a game.

Watch, Cassel will throw for 350 and 4 td's Sunday

This has been discussed tons of ****ing times. Injuries, 1st round draft picks and Eric Mangini have ****ed Quinn's career. Has the dude played lights out? No. But it's not like he went in and started 32 games in his career and never threw a TD.

:LOL:
