Chiefs Really hard not to like Matt Cassel. - Page 14

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.

Cassel's got a couple seasons left, so you have about a 50/50 chance of looking like a total moron.

Personally I don't know why you insist on doing that, but hey....I enjoy laughing at you.

he already had a home playoff game and shit his pants.

Oh I see ....We couldn't possibly get a different opponent or have a different outcome....

Cool.

You might not be very smart, but you really make up for it with a lack of creativity.

BK didn't deliver the point all that well, but it is a valid point.

Matt Cassel in pressure situations doesn't play at his very limited best.

Playoffs are pressure filled situations.

Expecting a different level of play from Cassel in a pressure situation simply because of a different opponent is like expecting like expecting to have your ass to come away unscathed if you pour gas on and it and light it with a match.

The regime doesn't hold him accountable for his shit play, so why should he hold himself accountable?

Cassel has a 100/0 chance of looking like a total moron.

Would that be before or after you take a year long break from Chiefsplanet?

Before and after. And on the next team he's on. And probably on the rec league team he plays on in retirement.

So even after we win 10 games this season, when you said there is no way in hell, you still won't give the man any props at all?

If so, you deserve a year off.

Matt Cassel isnt nor will he ever be worth two shits. It doesn't even matter if it was "the perfect situation". The mother****er sucks. Period
