I know everyone on CP hates Cassel.....

Microcosm.

I'm not sure what play you're talking about, unless you're mistaking Bowe for Charles, who also got lit up.

But if you want another example, on that deep ball to Chambers he overthrew by five yards, Moeaki was wide open over the deep middle. It would have been an easier throw.

Bowe was damn near killed in Denver. Got up quickly, talking some shit to let Broncos players know that he'd still be importing.

I'm assuming that the Chiefs run the West Coast offense, if not then I can't think of another offensive system that makes sense with the Chiefs offensive philosophies. Assuming that, everyone should know that the WCO requires a QB that makes QUICK reads to open receivers.

Our problem is, while Cassel knows they need to be quick, they're wrong a little bit too much for most everyone's liking. I think that's why Cassel does seem to get better later in the game. The WCO is designed for short routes early on to get the defense spread out, then use that advantage to go deeper, which means not as quick of reads by the QB.

Another big problem is a WCO QB needs to be deadly accurate, and Cassel isn't quite there.......

Almost every offensive philosophy is an offshoot of Sid Gillman's offense that he developed in the 50s with the Rams.

The west coast offense basically takes the short passing game aspects of that offense and uses it not only as the basis of teh passing game, but as an extension of teh running game.

Air Coryell uses the quick read and timing intermediate and deeper routes as it's base pass offense, with a sprinkling of the short game to balance.

The system that the Chiefs are using is basically a scaled down version of Gillman's entire system that uses all of the principles of Gillman's offense, but simplifies it.

I forget the name for that scaled down version.
