Chiefs start crafting offensive plan with Quinn at QB

BY ADAM TEICHER

The Kansas City Star

DAVID EULITT

Chiefs quarterback Brady Quinn will most likely start on Sunday.

Romeo Crennel’s first act as Chiefs head coach last December was to name Kyle Orton as the new starting quarterback. In making the announcement, Crennel expressed plenty of confidence that Orton could help the Chiefs win.

Crennel is now on the verge of making another quarterback change, this one forced by the concussion to Matt Cassel. Crennel didn’t sound on Monday as confident in Brady Quinn, the probable starter in Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers in Tampa, as he was in Orton.

“Kyle is a more experienced guy,’’ Crennel said. “This is a different scenario and a different situation. I know Brady will be ready to play, and Brady is going to do everything he can to help this team win.’’

Having given that less-than-resounding endorsement, Crennel and the Chiefs on Monday began the process of making the quarterback switch. Even at that, Crennel wasn’t ready to declare that Cassel was out for Sunday’s game.

“Not totally, but just from what I’ve seen about concussions, they can be difficult,’’ Crennel said. “The individual is the thing. Some individuals recover faster than others. With the emphasis on concussions in the league, they’re making sure we do due diligence on the player’s health and making sure he’s not rushed back.

“They’re going to run several tests to see where he is. Generally, concussions are not good, but we’re concerned about the safety and welfare of the player and we’re going to give him an opportunity to get well. In the meantime, Brady Quinn has to get ready to play, and Ricky Stanzi has to be ready to play.’’

Still, the Chiefs began crafting the offensive plan for next Sunday’s game with Quinn as their quarterback. It presumably will be a little different than the plan for Sunday’s 9-6 loss to Baltimore, one in which the Chiefs tried 50 running plays but only 18 passes.

“We have to look at the strength of every player we’re going to play in the game. The things Brady does well, we have to tilt the game plan toward those things. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t be very good coaches.’’

The Chiefs won’t have their first practice session of the week until Wednesday. Tight end Tony Moeaki said he didn’t think the transition from Cassel to Quinn would be complicated.

“We did all that work with him in training camp, and he takes reps in practice,’’ Moeaki said. “So we’ll be comfortable if Brady has to go and we’ll make it work.’’

What is there to scheme?

Just tell all the WR's they can run now instead of jog.

Hammock Parties · 10-09-2012, 03:32 PM

Our gameplan will look like Huard @ Denver, 2006.

Except Huard was better than Quinn will ever be.

Hopefully Quinn starts. I just picked him up since Brees has a bye. Could have signed Kolb, but I have faith in him with these weapons against the NFL's worst Passing Defense.

“We have to look at the strength of every player we’re going to play in the game. The things Brady does well, we have to tilt the game plan toward those things."

Maybe Brady can't take the center/QB exchange very well, Maybe Brady can't hand off the ball 50 times in a row, Maybe Brady can't make the 5 to 9 yard pass, Maybe Brady can't throw the ball too high and/or behind his receivers, Maybe Brady can't Throw many INT and or Fumble several times in a single game........WTH!!??

If we didn’t, we wouldn’t be very good coaches.

Personally, I think this is Crennel's way of throwing the middle finger to Pioli. We ran the ball 34 times and threw it 6 in the first half against the Ravens... and we were still in the game. Coulda/woulda/shoulda won the game. And now Crennel is covering his ass by getting it out there that he had to gameplan around his QB. That is what a good coaching staff does.

Haley threw his middle finger up at Pioli in the form of Palko... and won a game at Chicago. Showed Pioli you could win a game with any stiff at QB... not just Cassel. The key is "a game".

That is what Cassel can do for you. Win "a game". Once in a while. So can anyone.
