Thoughts on benching Cassel
 

I am by no means a Cassel fan. He's a starting backup, at best. However, in looking at what's on the bench, I'm not convinced he isn't the best we've got (and that's really saying something about Quinn and Stanzi). IMO, it's almost like we're caught in a catch 22.

Also, let's say, by some miracle, Pioli actually drafts a QB in the first round. Who would you want?

GENO OR DEATH!

THIS OR DEATH

What's a starting backup?

LMAO

Someone who starts the game on the bench with a baseball cap on. Assuming he can get it on. He's gotten better at it though.

An oximoron...lol. I'd say backup quality, but in the starting role.

Geno Smith > Dieing in Aids fire > Matt Cassell & Brady Quinn

This has yet to be discussed.

I think he's a starting CFL 2nd stringer, but that's just me.

Why bench Cassell? You keep going with him and if he continues his dreadful play, you end up with a great draft pick to pick a top QB prospect. If he turns it around, you might compete for the playoffs.

Just neg rep me and get it over with. :p

Also, I haven't been on all that much lately, so I don't have a pulse on who is the popular pick for QB among CP brethren.

IMO hes most likely the best QB on the team (heh, as if thats saying much...)

The problem is, he appears to have regressed from 2010, lost confidence and lost the team overall.

If im HC, id have to bench him and see how the team reacts to that.

I dont think Orton was the answer by any means, but look how much better the overall team played with him in there.

This.
