Chiefs How long will Cassel last (years vs miles) and will McCluster hinder our passing game

Wyndex · 06:14 PM

Cassel is in the 2nd of a 6 year contract. He is 28 meaning he will be 32-33 when his contract is up. He is in his 6th NFL season but only 2 and a half years of real quality playing time under his belt...will he be able to play past his current contract more effectively than other players? I was wondering because if he continues to progress and continues to develop into a Field General I'm all for keeping him around awhile.

Also our passing game was god awful...then McCluster got hurt and suddenly we quit throwing to McCluster on those rinky dinky designed routes...we started going down field and damnit Cassel has done well...the team has done well. Will McCluster coming back into the lineup be a step back with the rinky dinky bullstuff or will we utilize him as one of many offensive weapons? I sure hope it's the latter.

Don't hold back dude. Let it out, let him know how you feel.

I think that the idea that a player's career is extended because he doesn't have the mileage on his body is a myth, especially at the QB position.

I think there is something to it, but it's far from an absolute. I would look at guys like Marcus Allen, Rich Gannon, and Steve Young.

I've been pounding the "Matt Cassel = Rich Gannon" drum pretty hard. They remind me a lot of each other.

Last effective year of some elite QBs who played from a young age:

John Elway 38
Dan Marino 37
Joe Montana 38
Bret Favre 40

Last effective year of some good/elite QBs who sat early in their career

Steve Young 37
Rich Gannon 37
Kurt Warner 38

Let's put this tired myth to rest once and for all. It might have some validity for RB, but for QB, none at all.

Yeah, RB may be the only position you can stick this to.

Just by the sheer number of hits they take over a season.

So, Cassell goes 2 games without pissing down his leg and people are now wondering how much longer we'll be blessed by his greatness?

LOL

Pioli must love this bullshit. Go ahead and keep him around as long as you like. He will always hold the team back when it really matters.

I think most QB's are in their prime until they hit about 35. Then, they start to decline slowly. QB's typically retire when they have had enough, not when they 'can't' do it.
