Chiefs The Myths of Why We Shouldn't Play Croyle.. - Page 2

**petegz28** · 10-10-2010, 07:25 PM

Myth #1: He will just get hurt.

If that's the case WTF is he our #2 then? If Cassel gets hurt he is going in, so what then?

Myth #2: He is 0-9 as a starter so he can't do the job.

What ****ing job? Hand the ball off? What is it that Cassel does that makes some think Brodie can't do the same if not better?

Nevermind that 8 of Croyle's losses came behind one of the worst offensive lines in Chiefs history with absolutely 0 pass protection and 0 running game.

The 1 game Brodie started under Haley he did ok in until late. I firmly believe had he had more time with the starters the 4 TD's he overthrew against Baltimore would have turned out different

Myth #3: He isn't the long term answer.

I agree, but neither is ****ing Cassel. As much as I like what we are doing right now is actually not a bad time to change QB's.

When it comes down to it you have to look at things this year. Cassel has taken 2 sacks in 4 games. Meaning the O-line is much better in protection and we have a great running game to help him. Croyle, while not a long term answer, can actually throw the ****ing ball with some zip on it for more than 5 yards.

He's more talented than Cassel, for sure, but I don't think Croyle is an NFL player, as I've said numerous times.

Our OL didn't look near this good in preseason. And I don't think he is either, but I do think he's got just as good of a chance at it as Cassel.

**petegz28** · 10-10-2010, 07:34 PM

The thing is, if Cassel don't get his shit together like next week he is going to lose this offense.

At this point, I'm for trying because, as you allude here, I don't think there's much downside and there definitely isn't a talent dropoff.

Perhaps we'd catch lightning? But it would be just that, temporary. Need a new option for '11.

Here in lies the problem. At this point I don't care who we run out there. I am starting to pine for something different just so it's different, which isn't good.

If?

Is that a serious statement?

pete needs to understand what a "myth" really is before he uses it in a sentence.

**DeezNutz** · 10-10-2010, 07:36 PM

The better question would be downside. Are we worried about Cassel's confidence? He doesn't play with any now. He's not physically scared, like Huard, but he has no awareness.

Yeah like when the pre game guys say Cassel really needs to get better at EVERYTHING etc.WTF do they expect? All of the sudden a high school QB is just gonna figure it out and play at a pro bowl level?

**The Bad Guy** · 10-10-2010, 07:39 PM

Cassel sucks, but Croyle isn't any sort of answer either.

The chanting will start at Arrowhead soon
if people still show up

**petegz28** · 10-10-2010, 07:42 PM

It's hard to say for sure I know, I just can't help but think had Croyle been the QB today we actually bury the Colts 27-12. Not that Croyle is tons better, but I think he just has a better "feel" for the position.

I know Cassel is Pioli's guy but I wish we could really know who Haley would rather go with

Yep. He consistently looks like he has no clue. He always stares down receivers and he's a drive killer. I did think his throw to dbowe in the endzone was great but that's few and far between...
