Scout tells NFL Network's Albert Breer that Matt Cassel is "playing scared"
 

One AFC scout tells NFL Network's Albert Breer that Matt Cassel is "playing scared" this season.
"Doesn't trust his line. He's a game manager and is struggling to do that job," said the scout. "Teams are trying to stop the run, in order to force him to try and be more than he is. He needs a clean pocket." Cassel is on pace for a whopping 40 turnovers this season. Since ex-coordinator Charlie Weis announced his departure, Cassel is completing just 56.7 percent of his passes to go with a 15:21 TD-to-INT ratio and less than 200 yards per game. Oct 4 - 3:25 PM

Oh great . Now the cat's outta the bag.

You may as well retire, Matt. You posed for 8 seasons as an NFL QB. That's a pretty damn good run for someone who should have been aborted with the rest of the college trash every draft.

Take your bony weird-looking bitch wife with the huge hands, take your money, and enjoy the rest of life. You won.

Solution: FIRST-ROUND OL

Pioli way.

Maybe Im qualified to be a scout, and I only see the games on TV, but Ive thought that Matt has played scared ever since he came to KC. Even when he has protection, if his first read is covered, it's over.

The "Depends" weren't a dead give away?

Matt Cassel is awesome y'all just haters!

Obviously, it's the line's fault he sucks.

You know if we could combine Cassel's ability to stick around, with Quinn's arm, Green's ability to scan the field, Thigpen's ability to scramble and Croyle's wife we'd have a pretty good QB.

It's a process

Don't forget Huard's moxie.

Piloi's going to draft an all world QB in the sixth round next year and everything will change....

I mean, he's done it before...he can do it again, right?

Well yeah.......

Awwwwwww.

This scout clearly has an axe to grind.

Are you married?

GoChiefs...you should tweet our offensive lines ranking on PFF to Albert Breer.

Are you hitting on him?

So what 5 techs will be available in the top 10 next year?

Yes. Why? Am I not allowed to make offensive remarks about people I've never met before? I thought this was the United States of America.

I smell a Chiefs Planet fanfiction

Not on this BB.

We're above that kind of thing here...

...and her hands were...perfect.

Thread Title: WE JUST LANDED ON THE MOON!!!


A lot of us has been saying this for YEARS.

The "Depends" aren't as soft as last year...

OH NOES! He insulted Castle and his whorish wife.

keg tells everyone that Matt Cassel is "playing like shit".

When Ca$$hole threw the garter no one was able to catch it.

He probably plays so bad because she's constantly nagging him due to there being 6 garbage bags all around the can and none in it...

Really???????????????

He's always been a running scared kind of player because he doesn't understand how to play QB.

And in other news; fire is hot, water is wet and the sun will come up in the east tomorrow.

Kiper's top 5 was listed last night on ESPN. Don't recall all the names, but top 4 went...

1. OLB Georgia
2. Barkley
3. DE LSU
4. DE LSU
5. Don't remember... but it wasn't Geno Smith

:banghead:

Kiper's a maroon.

Kiper's color aside... I fear our 1st rounder next year could be on that list.

Yeah. Me too. Remember the old Bugs Bunny cartoons where he'd say "What a marooooon!" Always made me laugh. Still does.

I'm not very smart, but I can lift heavy things.

Matt Cassel objects to this report

anyone else think the "one AFC scout" was actually Scott Pioli?

No chance. His ego won't let him admit he may have been wrong.

when has Cassel not played scared?

when his first option is open.

And less than 15 yards downfield.

With a completely solid and well-cushioned pocket.

And only half the time.

In other breaking news, "Cassel is not a quality QB!" Alert the mother ****ing presses!

yeah.

lol
Cassel is not a Quality QB he just plays one for KC every Sunday.

ole-news .. kinda like new-news .....

TBH when I watched him play for patrifarts he was just scared of BB on the sidelines. He scrambled a lot that season so he wouldn't make those erant throws he didn't trust himself.

The goal post should be the ones scared.

LMAO

ROFL

He also took something like 50 sacks.

EDIT: Sorry ... 47 sacks. Oh, and that's just shy of 10% of his pass attempts that year.

FAX

His goal post abuse is criminal, as is his abuse of fans.

Richard Baldinger says the writing is on the wall for Pioli/Cassel

Good.

The only thing that would suck is if Clark hires Lake Dawson.

He is soooo wrong.

The writing is on the banner, not the wall. Stupid.

Lets put it this way. He's playing scared against Atlanta, Buffalo, and Chargers. Wait til the Ravens get a piece of that ass. They'll be like Sharks sensing blood

I think it behooves us to remember that CK has yet to say a word about any of this. All is babble until he makes the call about Pioli.

I fear that Dr. Evil may yet have CK's ear and has also likely conjured up some sort of spooky, New England, graveyard demon to possess Clark and influence his decisions.

I may have to pull out the old spell book on this one.

FAX

Chiefs fans scared that Cassel will continue playing, so it's basically a wash.

I'll enjoy watching football this Sunday. I've stayed away from CP, the radio, and anything NFL all week so i could get over my frustrations.

My mind is in the right place now. I'll enjoy Matt Cassel continuing to hang himself.

I suppose if he gives himself enough rope to hang himself...it could be worth it. Especially if it ends with a QBotF next year.

Why be scared of the Ravens?

Its not like Ray Lewis and the gang would ever try to kill anybody...sec

Actually, the ratbirds defense isn't all that great is it? Pretty sure it's their offense that is pulling the cart this year but I could be wrong...

Their rep has stayed high the past few years when it probably shouldn't have, especially this year. That being said they still try get after it and perception is reality. Cassel is going to be scared as usual.

When it comes to the most relevant stats, they don't look too bad, Mr. Tombstone RJ.

6th in interception yardage.
2nd in interception touchdowns.

EDIT: Oh ... and allowing 20.8 points per game, it appears. We can't score that many until after the game is well out of hand. Through 3 quarters of play, we've scored 17, 3, 13, and 13 (I think) ... that's an average of 11.5 points ... not counting the 4th quarter by which time we're usually well out of the game.

FAX

Weis truly turned out to be a miracle worker. Thank God he didn't stay though, because Cassel probably would have seen the end of his contract as our starting QB.

Meh, it all balances out. This year their defense is worse but offense is better.

Chiefs | Could part ways with Matt Cassel after 2012
Sat, 06 Oct 2012 09:02:07 -0700

The Kansas City Chiefs could decide to part ways with QB Matt Cassel after this season and not suffer from a significant cap hit. The Chiefs have already paid Cassel $40.5 million over the first three years of a six-year deal and only have modest base salaries remaining. As a result, the team can make a move and still have plenty of money left over.

Make a move for who? There is nobody available at this point. If they're going to trade picks for somebody's backup like we always do, pass.

I believe he's saying "make a move" to mean cutting him after the season with minimal cap implications.

Can't we trade his ass and get something? Surely there's somebody out there stupid enough to give us a 5th.

FAX

Pioli won't cut Cassel unless Hunt orders him to, in order to save his job.

The fact he is angry over the fan revolution is proof of that.

A sane, reasonable person would be sheepishly humbled by all of this.

This bastard owes the fan base an apology but we won't get one. Ever.

We got one from Marty, somewhat, and I always respected him for that.

Sure

Not likely, they watch the games too... Now if his contract is the league minimum for his tenure you may get off the hook for that but I seriously doubt anybody would want him for much more than a backup... I bet he is completely out of the league in 2 years.

No spin from me, I just saw it and thought I would stick it in a Cassel hat'n thread

They should cut him Monday morning.
