Drew Brees has about the same arm strength that Cassel has.
It was the reason that I didn't like him coming out of college.
But he makes up for it with outstanding vision, making quick progressions, good decisions and great anticipation.
His intermediate and deep balls are accurate because of those attributes, and those are mental aspects of the position.
A guy like Brett Favre, who was really not good at making quick reads and good decisions got away with it because of his strong arm.
Ben Roethlisberger gets away with it because of his size and strength, along with his arm.
Cassel lacks the mental tools to succeed.
