Who cares what he makes?

He made good throws today (for once)...

and his command of the offense was excellent...

Today was the first thing I've seen from Matt Cassel that suggests to me he could actually succeed at QB in the NFL...not promising...but something.

Also...

We are the most disciplined team I have ever seen. It's crazy how good our coaching is...and our players totally buy in.

The sky is not falling.

We have 2 losses.

The Raiders, Broncos and Raiders have 4.

Chalk this up as a tough, tough loss and a learning experience.

We will bounce back.

Yeah. What stings here is that we gave up a 2nd round draft pick and a large contract on "serviceable". We could've probably accomplished the same thing choosing a QB with that 2nd round pick for much smaller coin.

Todd Blackledge? Most you you don't even know who they are. LOL. The Chiefs have won for years on the backs of decent, but not stellar QB's. Look at the Chargers. On paper they should be kicking the crap out of the AFC and they suck. Not to mention they have the worst coach in the history of the NFL. The Chiefs are a good team that are on the verge of being great. They are going to lose games like they did today throughout the year. Next year they will truly be a seasoned TEAM. I bet anything that they will be picked to make the playoffs be every analyst next year. Nobody picked them to be undefeated after three games. Stop blaming Cassel for the losses solely. Some of you guys are complete babies. The Chiefs are exciting again and are IN every single game they play. Not one game were they blown out. The Chiefs scored thirty one points today. That IS enough to win any game. ANY GAME!!! The so called class of the AFC west got beat by the lowly Rams today. The Chiefs could beat the Rams any day and they beat the Chargers. This team is miles better than last year. If they go 8-8 this year then they are going 11-5 next year and are solidly in the playoffs. We can only hope that the Chargers keep that horrible coach they have. The Chiefs are good and are exciting to watch.

Actually, I would be inclined to trade Matt Cassel straight up for Max Hall.

As to the rset of this post, well, you're dumbass.

I've been around for Dawson.
For Livingston, for Fuller, Pelluer, Blackledge, for Kenney, for DeBerg, etc...

I remember when fans were calling for Beathard to start instead of Dawson.

I remember when I hoped that David Jaynes would be the next great QB.

I've seen them all.

And Matt Cassel makes me long for the days of Bono.

Yeah. I forgot about that play. Take away that one play that was largely as a result of yards after catch and Cassel has another 160 yard day. Stellar.

He also had about 20 garbage-time yards on his desperation drive.

How about that shit?

jfc, are we really going to play this game? Matt Cassel had a really solid performance and his stats are reflective of that.

He just sucked it up when it counted most. The problem isn't how he played early in the game. Let's not play this game of "if not this, then that."

Just trying to keep his performance in perspective. That one play did inflate his stats.

But then you fall into a slippery slope. Should we take away Schaub yards when Andre Johnson makes a circus catch on a long bomb? While I understand your point, the play was set up because Cassel found the right guy and led him with a good pass. That's a lot more than we can say for the rest of the season so far.

Hootie · 10-17-2010, 10:15 PM

GoChiefs is wrong.

Matt Cassel played well today...and he had a great command of the offense...something I hadn't seen from him...he was borderline excellent.

If our "vaunted" D shows up...we win that game. No doubt. No doubt at all...

and shit...

Cassel even made our abused offensive line (in pass protection) look good today with his mobility.

He could have made more plays...but so could anyone...

This was his BEST game as a Chief...hands down...and he played as well as anyone could ask.

This was on the defense today...and the special teams...and maybe even the pass protection a bit.

He played well.

Just not well enough to win against a superior quarterback.

While his running game did all the heavy lifting.

That's why he blows goats while George Clooney stares at them.

Dude I love ya' but c'mon. Did you watch the game?

I am no Cassel apologist but if he can play as well as he played today throughout the remainder of the season look out mother****ers!

He gave us all that we wanted and more. If only the other perceived strengths of our team had shown up (coaches, defense).

Well, let's be fair - he won't be facing the vaunted Houston Texans' passing defense every week.

So we may have to lower our expectations.

Say 148 yards?

Is Cassel good enough to help this team win playoff games? Yes, "games," plural.

Because what I'm "looking out" for is a quick exit b/c championship QBs have to help teams overcome shortcomings in other areas. While I agree that Cassel is not primarily or solely responsible for today's loss, he is still culpable, though I'm sure he would tell you otherwise.
