Chiefs Really hard not to like Matt Cassel. - Page 6

Direckshun · 07-28-2012, 06:14 PM

I can't help it. He is everything I like in a quarterback other than his inability to be consistently really, really good.

Kind of a ****ed up thing to say. But he's such a good representative for this team. He blocks when run plays swing around, and blocks really, really enthusiastically for a QB. He sticks up for all his teammates, and has never thrown them under a bus. He's got occasional throws when his protection is strong that do genuinely look like brilliant darts into the chest of a receiver.

He's not a drama queen, doesn't crave attention. Gives his time up for charity, married to a camera shy college sweetheart who as it turns out is the leggiest brunette this side of the Atlantic.

He's really fiery, even having that awesome exchange of words with Haley last year. He'll get in a fight, even a physical fight for the guys in red. He ****s around with his teammates on the sidelines and knows the playbook like a mother****er.

Sure, he's got the beta-male thing going on, but he's not flawless.

And we all know it: if Matt Cassel was even a pretty good Pro Bowl talent, he'd be your favorite Chief.

At 4:50, and at 5:14, two examples of Cassel putting his body out there for a teammate, in this case Jamaal Charles.

Seriously, folks. He's done nothing wrong but work his ass off for this team, do everything it takes to win, and be physically limited in what he can do.

He was one of the reasons Baldwin was able to turn it around decently last year. Cassel and Baldwin were BFFs in the preseason, and when the whole locker room could have turned on Baldwin after the Thomas Jones debacle, I'm willing to bet the first thing Cassel did in Baldwin's first practice back was throw him the ball. Cassel might have been the life saver around Baldwin's locker room rep.

I can understand being frustrated with Cassel. I know you all are too. But there is no reason to do anything but just hope the guy gets better.

Stop rooting for injury. Stop calling him an asshole.

Because he's a really ****ing good dude, and a decent quarterback. He's been good to this franchise in a lot of ways, and if he was better on the field you guys wouldn't be able to stop sucking him off.

We're all hoping Stanzi gets a shot this year, and I've been consistently mocking QBs to the Chiefs in round 1 next year.

But get your head on straight. Root for Matt Cassel.

I for one am very excited.

I fully expect him to play reasonably well this season.

Mediocre QBs play resonably well all the time.

Mediocre QBs go to pro bowls.

Medicore QBs go to the SB with the same ticket they buy that any other football fan can purchase.

I've asked this before, and no one answers: Does anyone on this forum believe the Chiefs have any shot at winning a SB this year? If not, why?

That really isn't his ceiling...at least IMO..

2010 was better than reasonably well, and I do not think that is his ceiling. I think he will break the Chiefs record for TD's this season. With a healthy team around him, I think he will exceed people's expectations.

That being said, he (obviously) needs a good team around him to win. He has one. I would say we have a 'shot' at it...I mean, that is a very vague question. It is not impossible that we win it all....A long shot, certainly since we aren't even favored to in our division.

Might as well root for him to win, since we don't have any better options...I mean what else can we do?

I agree with you. Expect the worst but hope for the best. He's not going anywhere unless he's carted off the field. And then, with a flourish we'll just sign some dirtbag like Ken Dorsey.

One thing I will say about Cassel is worked under a despicable OC/HC last year.

bricks · 07-28-2012, 07:36 PM

No choice but to root for shit.

But shit sucks out the enthusiasm and dampens optimism towards the season.

Oh well. At least he sets realistic expectations. With Cassel Chiefs are 7-9, 8-8.
