Chiefs Insider: Scott ***** wanted Peyton Manning - Page 6

Cassel>Manning · 09-30-2012, 11:23 PM

Quote:

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel at least has one supporter left in coach Romeo Crennel. Beyond that, the fourth-year starter for the Chiefs is losing confidence from players and many others in the organization. In fact, if the team had a better alternative than Brady Quinn as the top backup, Cassel might have already found his way to the bench.

"Look, there's a big reason why they went after Peyton Manning as hard as they did this offseason," said a source with knowledge of Chiefs president Scott *****'s thinking. "What you're seeing from Cassel is pretty much what was expected. He's a really nice backup, not a starter."

That's just dumb. They had plenty of other opportunities to bring in challengers. I'm sure ***** would argue that guys like Orton and Campbell are also at best nice backups, which may be true. But come on, you have to try and have some options there, not say we have three QBs on the roster in Quinn and Stanzi who we believe can start in this league, like you said in the offseason, and now spin it like you have no options. With all your cap room, with the ability to trade up for Tannehill based on what the Cowboys did, you absolutely had options, and you passed...

Exactly.

I hate this ****er infinitely more than Carl.

I didn't think that was even possible.

***** is a shithead, but he's not a complete ****ing retard.

Tannehill is 4th round talent and there were other QB's that could've been taken without trading your draft away.

Hey look, we have one on the roster already that hasn't been given a chance to play yet...

***** is the worst of Carl condensed into a neat 50-game package.

Who almost won a game yesterday by throwing for 431 yards.

In his best season, Cassel's 400-yard game was all garbage time.

Ryan Tannehill is a rookie and already has a legit 400-yard game.

We can bump this thread in a few years and see who was right about Tannehill.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

But Manning wanted NO PART OF FAT SCOTT!

Can't really blame him for that.

As I understand it, Peyton said be something to the effect of

"My salary negotiations start no lower than this $$$ amount, if that is not your cup of tea then don't bother"

At which point we promptly turned around and said no thank you. Which is odd considering how much we still have in cap room.

Precisely.

Is this ***** going down the road to throwing Romeo under the bus to save himself, same as he did Haley?

(Not that Romeo has done a good job or anything)

What ill never understand is that when he couldnt get Manning, why didnt he look for other options and opportunites to upgrade from Cassel?

He doesn't believe in real competition. He thinks you need to have one entrenched starter that nobody questions
