All we learned when Stanzi played in preseason is that nobody can throw the ball accurately (or at all) when they have opponents draped all over them before then can complete their dropback and set their feet.

I'm all for conspiracy theories but I don't think there's an athlete alive who would willingly take a dive and effectively end their career when their salaries are guaranteed anyway. What's in it for Cassel? Dude has $60,000,000. Why would he agree to do that?

He gets to avoid the embarrassment of being yanked.

Okay - but when he recovers and doesn't take his starting job back or he's cut in the offseason. Similar embarrassment. There's just nothing in it for him - even if they paid him $5,000,000 to take a dive, that's peanuts compared to what he'd earn as a backup for the next 5 years and in retirement by adding another 5 years of NFL time to his pension.

And he'd risk brain damage for it?

He wasn't faking anything, JFC.

You just gave another man a woody by posting this....that's gay
