Crennel: Orton Should be Starting QB in 2012 if He Wins Final 2 Games
This could very well be a repost, so I apologize in advance if it is. I didn't see it anywhere on the first page unless it's mixed in on another thread. Pretty interesting that Crennel has come out and said this already IMO.
Interim coach Romeo Crennel said Kyle Orton should be the Chiefs' 2012 starter if he wins the final two games. There's a ton of uncertainty in Kansas City, so Crennel is getting way ahead of himself here. He's no lock to get the head coaching job, Orton is an impending free agent, and Matt Cassel is under contract through 2014. Still, Orton may truly be a better option than Cassel. The Chiefs would be foolish not to at least consider using him as a "bridge" to a rookie quarterback they might draft in April.

Romeo wasn't winning crap here either way.
He got a nice fat check.

I despised the Romeo hire. But you are absolutely right that Romeo made it clear as day he wanted a new qb. **** pioli. Let me also mention that while Romeo promoted qb competition when Quinn came in, pioli said outright... Quinn is our backup, cassel is our starter. **** pioli. Nobody will ever want to work with pioli unless it's mcdaniels. I agree that Romeo got ****ed over. |

Scott couldn't find a ****ing soul besides Romeo who would take the ****ing job. Charlie Weis bolted as quick as he could. Was it Haley, or was it Scott? Weis could work for Belicheck, he respected him. How about working for the new Scott? I dunno, maybe Haley wasn't the reason Weis waddled away as quick as he did...

Trading a second rounder for him wasnt a bad decision IMO...even though I hated Cassel. Signing him to that reeruned deal (sorry jason) and handcuffing him to the starting spot has overshadowed some very solid moves that Pioli has made for this franchise since. It's a real shame...all he guy had to do was his job and keep trying to find a franchise quarterback and he would be a hero. People on here would be photoshopping him in a superman suit if he had moved up for RG3 or Tannehill. |

Cassel is not the only problem with the franchise. That's an incredibly simplistic point of view.
The defense has been a dumpster fire this season far too much, and everyone knows Crennel is a fat, worthless puppet. Don't even get me started on the drafts. We all know they have been vastly overrated.

Every single draft pick would play better if we had a qb that gave them hope instead of take it from them.
Brandon Flowers intercepts a pass from Flacco and one play later, Cassel wastes a timeout and then throws a pick when a tight end is wide open on the other side of the field. That's just one example of probably 20, this year alone, that Cassel stole the energy from this team. It's no mistake that the team plays energized once Cassel is out. They know they have a chance without him. |

I'm sure Javier Arenas would play better with QB hope.
![]() You just need to cut bait. This GM is fail. We're literally a play or two away from 0-5.

We're one of the worst teams in the league with Cassel.
Without him, we'd probably be a fringe playoff contender. It's a bunch of wastoid bullshit either way.

especially when you consider all the play makers around every single pick he has passed on over a 4 year span, ignoring the BPA for his massive ego to make a Pioli pick but hey, "it's a process" |
