Not sure if serious? Romo sucks. What's his playoff record again? Romo is to Dallas what Cassel is to KC.

I'll give you he hasn't seen has much success in the post-season, but he's 10x the QB Cassel is. Career 96 QB rating.

Very likely that Pioli is the reason Manning wanted nothing to do with the Chiefs.

Talent-wise its not even close. Romo just needs to be a little more clutch. His whole team has been jinxed lately in big games and it wasn't always his fault. I doubt Dallas lets him go.

It is amazing how such a report surfaces after the game. I wouldnt surprised if Pioli is the one sending these messages to calm fans.

I think its the most likely scenario. As much as he loved Matt, he will certainly throw him under the bus to save his own job if he has to. It's the only thing more important than being right about Cassel.

This statement in the OP is the only reason Pioli "went after Manning as hard as he did." So he could say, "See!? I tried to fix it. I knew this was going to happen. Give me another year."

Matt Cassel has been selected as a starter twice in his long and illustrious career:
1. Chatsworth High School 2. The Kansas City Chiefs I think that speaks volumes about him and Pioli's ability to evaluate a player. |

There has never been any indication from any credible source that the Chiefs were ever in on Manning. The closest report I ever read was that the Chiefs had inquired but Manning declined to consider them, or that the Chiefs heard his contract demands and said no thanks.
Manning falls into a category where 2/3 of the league should have called a least to find out where the bidding was going to start. This in no way indicates that the chuckleheads at Arrowhead have seen the light on Cassel. There's no way Quinn can be so bad they wont dream of playing him no matter how bad Cassel gets, and still be the #2. And if he is, how stupid are you for signing him? |

"Honest, Clark, Romeo is undermining everything we've been working toward here. I don't know what happened with him. Let me pick another coach and I swear I'll get this one right."

To try hard as in their definition is to call the newspaper and tell them. If you do that, you will surely become a brain surgeon.
