You know I was thinking damn he looks good as well but then my brain kicked in.
A performance or two from a surprise back up never tells the true story til their put under a microscope after a sufficient amount of time/games.
Chiefs fans over the yrs know this story by heart.
Thats why you dont jump the gun and sign him/back up to a huge contract.
Matt Cassel ... Became the fifth player in NFL history to have back-to-back 400-yard passing games with a 415-yard performance against the Miami Dolphins on Nov. 23 after a 400-yard performance against the New York Jets on Nov. 13 ... Made his first career start at the New York Jets on Sept. 14 ... Posted a career-high passer rating of 136.3 while throwing for three touchdown passes in the Patriots' 41-7 victory over the Broncos on Oct. 20 ... His 136.3 passer rating against the Broncos ranks as the 10th best mark by a Patriots quarterback since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger.
Painful to read I know.
The man became a gazillionaire all on account of his first few starts.
