Last season, Cassel and Quinn combined for 20 interceptions on the 4th fewest passing attempts in the league. They also threw for the fewest yards, fewest TDs, and second fewest Y/A.
If you honestly think that Alex Smith is comparable to that then you aren't thinking rationally. |

Sorry, but this is the kink of overboard reaction I think this is all about. Don't like it. Don't like the philosophy. But when people say that Alex is the same, that he has performed on the same level, or that he is a "worse game manager than Cassel" its just not intellectually honest. He had a bad start to his career with injuries and multiple systems/HC's. But for 2 years he's been at worst an elite "game manager" who has also stepped up in big games and led his team to home field the last 2 years. None of those other QB's had the same accomplishments or ability. He isnt Montana or Green, but he's better than Grbac, Cassel Krieg, or Bono. Maybe he will pan out maybe not, but as a fan dont you have to hope for the best outcome/scenario? If nothing else this coach obviously doesn't believe in Geno. Period. If he did he wouldn't have made this trade the day after meeting with him. Maybe you disagree with his assesment, but those are the facts. They got rid of Cassel and he made the best move available given his assesment of the draft talent. Give it a couple of games before burning a cross in front of Arrowhead. 2 cents...

I think he's comparable to 2010 Matt Cassel. At his best. And we all know where that leads.

Grbac and Bono BOTH led the Chiefs to home field advantage. Grbac and Bono BOTH had their moments where they stepped up. Grbac to Rison on the last play against the Raiders? Bono doing his best Montana impression against the Chargers? Hell, Bono beat Brett Favre once. If you want to talk about being intellectually dishonest...you are. The only thing separating Alice Smith is his ONE playoff game against the Saints. People are clinging to that...so good luck.

How can you possibly compare Alex Smith's play in the playoffs in 2011 to Matt Cassel's in 2010? That makes no sense. Polar opposites.

What Alex Smith did in the regular season the last two years...is a lot like 2010 Matt Cassel.

Good thing he can turn it up in the playoffs unlike Matt Cassel, who peed down his leg against Baltimore.

He's 1-1, with one good game, and one stream of urine down his leg.

He's never even thrown an INT in the playoffs. Idk how you guys can't give the guy a chance.

Less than 50 percent completion percentage.
1 third down conversion (was it even a pass? don't care to look). He pissed himself. Cassel shat himself.

This year has been solid in FA. I'm waiting on the draft. So far i'm on board and we can't be worse than this year. We just need to be able to COMPETE with the Donkos... The Sean Smith FA pic up will allow us to plan man coverage and unleash Hali/Houston so we can finally get some pressure on the pass attack of other teams.
I've never been on the Geno Smith train. Alex Smith and now Chase Daniels will have us set up for the next couple years and that is when we will get our QBOTF. Much better prospects to draft and reign over the AFCW like we did in the 90's. |

Oh, you know that PFF not only says he's better than 2010 Cassel, but MUCH better than 2010 Cassel.

I'm talking about the "good" 2010 Matt Cassel, who put together a decent stretch in the 2nd half of the season.

I'm disappointed with the QB pick ups and would have been very happy if they had drafted Geno, but Dorsey/Reid clearly don't rate Geno high enough to take at 1.1. There is nothing stopping us from taking a QB in next years first if things don't go well with what we have now, the only problem with that is we won't be drafting at 1.1 unless Smith is an almighty **** up...
