His tendency to stare down receivers would not only result in more turnovers, it would mean the likely premature death of our receivers ... especially the midget ones. The fact is that, if they did feature Cassel, we'd get routinely slaughtered trying to win games on his arm and decision-making ability. The coaches have to, not only maximize our strengths, but minimize the number of plays at which we suck. We're stuck with having to run the football for a mazillion yards or more every game. If, that is, we want to actually win. FAX |

If we could throw down the field all game, we'd be doing it. The coaches aren't holding Cassel back because they want to take that dimension out of the offense. They're holding him back because they have to to play the type of game we're playing. Weis is getting the best out of Cassel that he can get.

Dude, I love this team.
This is the best Chiefs team I've seen since '93. I don't think they're as good as the '93 team, but Im just happy right now that they've come a long way. I love their tenacity and will in how they fight in ball games. They show a true display of heart and character and do a lot of the little things right. They are well coached and a fundamentally sound team. And also, I think they somewhat have a balance which as a Chiefs fan, were not used to seeing that. do they have the stars? Nope. But they have have a solid nucleus of players. Good young players, with solid defense and special teams, great running game, and good coaching is a team on the rise imo. Now if they had a damn good quarterback I think they would be competing right up there w/ Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and the other top teams in the league. Possibly superbowl too? |

I've revised my opinion on Cassel's arm strength as the season's gone on. He's not a noodle-arm. The issue is accuracy, I think he has enough raw oomph to make the throws.
He's actually doing several things better than he did last year. Minus a couple head-scratching plays last week, he's getting the ball out faster, which is I think helping the line not look so woeful in pass protection. He's generally making better decisions, as outlined by the TD/int ratio, and does appear to be progressing through reads on slower developing plays. But the issue is that we're talking about the development of a 28-year old player in terms you'd normally apply to a 22-year old just getting his feet wet in the league. If it does somehow, sometime *click*, I wonder just how much time he'll play at his 'peak', whatever that ends up being. I suppose the upside would be Trent Green, Steve Beurlein, Mark Brunell, Rich Gannon style post-30th birthday performance. But even that level of play seems very far away at times. He's a bit better than 2009, but it would be difficult not to be... And, unfortunately, he has yet to show any of the "it" that allows certain quarterbacks to elevate the team around them at moments where it's needed. He's showing this year that (so far) he's capable of not losing games. But he has yet to show that he can win one. |

They know exactly what Cassel is capable of. There is no "finding out" if he can do it. If he could, they'd be doing it. It's really that simple.

Maybe if he actually had a good arm that pass to Bowe on the first drive gets there faster and instead of the DB making a play Bowe hauls it in for a TD. It's just another thing to add to the list of issues.

The 1997 Chiefs would rape every Chiefs team since.
