You'd be asking him to defend Cassel. And he'd run down Cassel's accomplishments.

Then Harry responds with the data:

Cassel has the lowest yards per attempt and second lowest completion percentage of any QB in the league the last 3 years.

I'm telling you, directly attacking Cassel will cause Pioli to defend him stronger.

Pioli responds: Jack, I know a lot of fans want a QB with the best stats, and the most yards and TDs, but all I care about is wins, and leadership. Matt is a leader, and he has won for us.
