Where does the Chiefs QB situation rank in the NFL?

[Direckshun]

This oughtta be good.

We've already done this once with RBs. The general consensus is that the Chiefs have a top 5 RB corps.

I'm thinking of making it a series as my interest and time allows.

Do not consider anything other than the QB talent specific to 2012. But be sure to consider contract situations and/or injuries when evaluating.

Patriots: Brady, Hoyer, Mallett
Jets: Sanchez, Tebow
Bills: Fitzpatrick, Young, Thigpen
Dolphins: Tannehill, Moore, Garrard

Steelers: Roethlisberger, Leftwich, Troy Smith, Batch
Ravens: Flacco, Painter, Tyrod Taylor
Browns: Weeden, McCoy
Bengals: Dalton, Gradkowski

Texans: Schaub, Yates, Beck
Colts: Luck, Stanton
Titans: Hasselbeck, Locker
Jaguars: Gabbert, Henne

Chargers: Rivers, Whitehurst
Broncos: Manning, Henne
Raiders: Palmer, Leinart, Pryor
Chiefs: Cassel, Quinn, Stanzi

Cowboys: Romo, Orton
Eagles: Vick, Kafka, Foles
Giants: Manning, Carr
Redskins: Griffin, Grossman, Cousins

Packers: Rodgers, Harrell
Vikings: Ponder, Rosenfels, Webb
Bears: Cutler, Campbell, McCown
Lions: Stafford, Shaun Hill, Kellen Moore

Falcons: Ryan, Chris Redman
Panthers: Newton, Derek Anderson, Clausen
Buccaneers: Freeman, Orlovsky
Saints: Brees, Daniel

Rams: Bradford, Clemens
49ers: Smith, Kaepernick
Seahawks: Flynn, Jackson, Russell Wilson
Cardinals: Kolb, Skelton

Cassel has proven though, over and over again, that even when the rest of the team is playing well he can **** it up.

We ran all over the Bills in 2010, played terrific defense, and he almost single handedly lost the game.

The stakes are much higher this year, the expectations are bigger, the opponents are going to be tougher, I think he will fail harder.

And don't forget that even if the OL is better he has a habit of making OL look bad.

The only situation I really see us making the playoffs is if we field a top 5 defense. And I think Cassel will make that hard to do.

^This. People think it was coincidence that our D played better with Orton. When you're not on the field constantly due to 3 & out after 3 & ****ing out, you don't play like you're ****ing Jason Mayhem Miller (gass out in the first 5 min.).

That will almost assuredly guarantee us another 2 years of Cassel, at the very least.

I would normally agree. However, Cassel has to face a Mike Nolan D and play at Buffalo in his first 2 games. He's most likely going to be rattled and produce like he did the first two games of last year.

yeah you're right.
i had him on top because he has three super bowl wins.

should have based it off last season alone, but then P Manning wouldn't be there.
