Like I'm rare around here....? Quote:
Nope, don't care that Pioli's job is in danger. I think his HC hiring decisions have been questionable and that four years is a fair shake. if the team is truly horrible -- say 5-11 or worse -- then the GM could definitely take the fall for that after four years. I'm just wondering what the "answer" at QB is, since that seems to be the biggest strike against him.

I don't exactly HATE Pioli, because I think we have a good team right now, but he should have cut Cassel after last season. That's what pisses me off most about him.

But I'm pointing out how absurd it is to suggest cutting a guy who had 27 TDs and 7 INTs. Quote:
Cassel is a gigantic failure. That's easy to say. I think Pioli is on the edge of it, definitely. But I'm asking a simple question -- if his main sin is Cassel, then what realistic alternatives did he have? He correctly assessed, and rejected, Sanchez, which appears to have been the right move.

So you agree? The 27 TD, 7 INT guy should've been cut after his Pro Bowl season? Wow. I admit I didn't watch the games, but I think that'd be a first in NFL history...

Yeah, that is a major problem IMHO. Not keeping Orton made no sense to me. Some might say he was worried about creating a QB controversy, and I get that, but if your QB doesn't have the confidence in himself to raise his play in the face of competition for the job, then he probably isn't the right guy anyway! If Pioli intentionally engineered it as "Cassel or Moe, Larry or Curly", then that's a big strike against him IMHO. I have no idea what Orton was looking for, or what other backup options there were, but that would definitely not fly in my book if he did that on purpose.

I don't think you can put aside the Orton option if you're asking what really should have been done.
Not that he was the answer but it was clearly evident last year he was the better QB of the two. |
