But, if they don't recognize that Cassel is a moron, we're in a heap of trouble and will be for a long, long time. FAX |

Which is why the key is to use Orton to prove that Cassel was the problem. I do believe that Orton comes with much less of a smoochy-smooch "we will keep you around because Pioli loves you" type of baggage.

This isn't analogous to missing in the draft, even if we're discussing selecting a midget or 5-tech, which we love. |

Yes. 2005-08. Despite popular opinion, Cassel wasn't "essentially a rookie" when he arrived in KC.

Pioli took a shot because the Chiefs needed a QB and it was obvious NE wasn't going to be able to keep Cassel. It hasn't worked out the way anyone hoped. Shit happens all the time. |

Pioli acquired Cassel and subsequently signed him to an extension because he thought he was good. And he was wrong in a disconcertingly big way. |

Yeah, we should totally give Pioli a pass. I mean, being able to evaluate a player for four years really isn't much. Shit happens.

I think it's a very fair point that the Chiefs were bad at a really, really, really shitty time. Probably some of the worst string of QB classes in consecutive years.

He doesn't deserve a pass for the QB but he also doesn't deserve heat for the QB. Name a QB that would put the Chiefs in a better position today that was available when we traded for Cassel. |
