Thanks, Matt.

Now I clearly wanted Cassel benched but I don't buy this part. Worst ? No way, Quinn has much better mechanics and a stronger arm. Cassel is by far worst than Brady Quinn ! Superior ? I would say more along the line of a better Kyle Orton.
As our schedule gets weaker the last half of the season, we should run off several wins during this time. It does not matter if it's Brady or Matt, we will win several of those games. A win today and maybe 9 more , say if Brady lights it up and comes of age, you have a team full of confidence riding a "hot" QB.
All the reason why I have never been one for losing to better a draft pick. Losing does not breed confidence into the team & players, winning does! Losing only paints a loser type image to other potential FA's later in the off season.
With Quinn, does anybody think that maybe age & maturity also came into play while he was in Cleveland as much as it was a bad team ? Why is it many fans think all QB's should be able to light it up when entering the NFL ? That it shouldn't take a QB more time to develop as an NFL starter as it does some other positional player? To be fair here, there is a lot more to learn and the responsibility & scrutiny is much greater as a QB. I'm not making excuse's for Brady Quinn here, just looking outside the box a little broader here.
Sure I want a 1st rd stud QB but not at the expense of want to lose all the games to get it. New QB's take time, unless you get a special one right away, which doesn't happen every year.
To get a 1st rd QB, we either suck badly or we move up to get him. People will complain that not getting Stanzi reps and giving them to Quinn is holding Stanzi back. Stanzi has to learn as well, age and maturity is his problem as well, his mechanics and potential is greater than Cassel's.
At the same time I want the best all around players at all positions we can get too!
