It just won't fly period. Every minute Cassel is a starter is a minute that is wasted of one of our good players careers.

That's what I've been saying the whole time. And don't get me wrong, that's not what you want out of your QB, but that's probably what we're going to have to roll with.
I'm tired of this "we're gonna face real defenses and real QB's" in the playoffs. No shit. But, it's a team game, and it's about match-ups. If our defense can frustrate the opposing QB and our offense can effectively hide Cassel, then we can win. ****ing Tebow won a playoff game last year against a real defense and a real QB. It's not the ideal scenario, but it's what you have to work with.

Trent was helped a lot by a very friendly QB system, a phenomenal offensive line, and the best receiving TE to ever play the game in his prime.
When he didn't have those things, he wasn't anything special. Look at his seasons in 1998 or 2001.
I know we're starving for a real QB, but JFC, the Bono comparison is beyond awful. Just look at his career numbers. They're a joke. When he was Cassel's age, he had 9 career starts under his belt. Cassel has 54.

ME TOO!

That was in the post that you ****ing quoted.
And I said I would take 27 TD's and 7 INT's...just the ratio by itself, from any QB. I didn't say I wanted Cassel's 2010 season and everything else with it.
