Yup. Cinci's D and their soft as schedule. Same shit as in 2010 with the Chiefs. Cassel could have beaten the Browns, kinda like Dalton.

JD, I agree with a lot of your posts and think this is just something we'll ever agree on. You think Dalton equals Cassel and that is fine. I thought that Flacco=Cassel until the AFCC game last year. We're entitled to our own opinions and because I think you're not a troll and I enjoy our own perspectives, I value your input.

I think we both agree that Cincy's D last year was good and had a good part in Cincy's success. For me, I don't think you can stick Cassel on that team and get the same results. Just my own opinion I suppose.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit.

I said Dalton is a game manager, like Cassel, just slightly better.

He, much like Cassel, is not going to be a QB to beat guys like Brady, Manning, Rodgers, Brees, Roethlisberger, etc...

Chiefs would be a better team with Dalton but we'd still likely be a 1 and done team in the playoffs like Cincinnati was last year. The Chiefs have the better overall talent on offense but AJ Green is looking awfully good. Not sure I would take Bowe over him.

Pioli should have done something! There are tons of things he could have done and he didn't do a single one of them.

Ouch about the reading comp. :(

Additionally, I think that Dalton isn't going to win shoot-outs with the QBs you listed now. I think that he has displayed the acumen to do that in the future. You obviously don't and that is fine.

If you have watched football and think that Dalton equals Cassel then you clearly don't understand what the **** you are watching.

I really think it is telling though, JD the # of people who have jumped to you aid in this thread.


Oh wait. That is nobody. Literally, nobody agrees with you on this subject.

I don't need to feel a fuzzy pillow of other posters agreement.

Dalton is 1-8 against .500+ teams.

Dalton is a second year player. It's a bit early to put a label on him.

There are a shit ton of posters on this board who defined Flacco after a couple of years, too.

Simple fact is, we don't know what Dalton is at this point. Similarly, if the Chiefs ever grow a testicle and draft a QB early, we won't know what we have in him within three years, either.

Why? People can label Luck and RG3 franchise QBs 5 games into their career but you can't label someone else "that the Chiefs should have drafted" a game manager?

I don't give a shit if the Chiefs draft Geno mother****ing 1-15o Smith; two years won't define his trajectory for better or worse .

If you figure that the first two will improve with experience, which certainly puts them in the franchise QB category, why would you assume Dalton is all he is ever going to be?

Because he's already getting surpassed by the next batch of Brady's?

Perhaps he's the next Brees?

This narrative that QBs are great from the jump is a recent one. But let's put limits on Matt Ryan after year two, too. Oops.
