QB MATT CASSEL NAMED AFC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE MONTH

By PR Staff

Cassel is just the second Chiefs quarterback to ever win the honor

The National Football League informed the Chiefs on Thursday that QB Matt Cassel has been named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month for November.

Cassel is just the second Chiefs quarterback to ever win the honor, joining QB Steve DeBerg who did it in September of ’90. Cassel is the first Chiefs player to be named AFC Player of the Month since RB Larry Johnson in December/January of the 2005 season.

Cassel (6-4, 230) completed 90 of 144 passes (62.5%) for 1,111 yards with 12 TDs and only one INT for a 111.2 passer rating in November. His 12 TD passes led the league during the month, while his passer rating ranked third in the NFL over that span. He has recorded three straight games with a 100.0+ rating and produced a pair of games with four TD passes in November. Cassel threw for a career-high 469 yards at Denver (12/5). He currently leads the NFL with a 6.81 TD percentage (min. 250 attempts) on the season. Cassel also has a +18 touchdown-to-interception differential, the second-best mark in the NFL.

And that doesn't even count the posts from his mults.

I only give him credit for the great videos he prepares. The rest of his posts are rambling BS.
That means he probably only has a couple of hundred that are worth anything.

He's been doing things that he didn't do well, or couldn't do consistently, in the past.

All of that is conducive to continued success. Keep it up, Matty. I am cautiously optimistic, but reserve the right to flame his ass if he shits the bed down the stretch.

HC_Chief · 12-02-2010, 10:36 AM

Well deserved (though IMO Bowe deserved it more; not taking anything from Cassel: Bowe was just that freaking good).

Fish · 12-02-2010, 10:38 AM

Congrats Matt. I wish I had more hope that your bad days are behind you. But you have shown improvement in many areas. That's a start. Keep it up.

Go Chiefs!

True.

And that also doesn't take into account a number of posts that were deleted/discounted over the years not only to bannings but whatever happened when we all lost some posts with whatever database/server/etc issues.

Had the ****er directed his OCD and mild neurosis at something productive he'd have cured cancer by now and be working on the patent for the AIDS vaccine...

Did they do the voting in Florida? kidding.
Congrats on the QB and team confidence builder. He has played the last couple games like a true franchise QB. Funny how Pioli can go from foolish move to genious in a month, hope he can do the same for Tyson Jackson.

Good post but a waste. He sucks from the Teet of Hamas and even ****s that up. His football evaluation is some of the worst on the board.

How'd the defense play in that time?

Seriously man. Get some water for all that salt.

Jive Ass · 12-02-2010, 10:52 AM

This is pretty pathetic to read half of the posts on here saying that this award is jack squat and that he doesn't deserve it. Be happy for the guy. There's obviously a new chemistry developing (note the -ing) and if it continues then this serves as a confidence builder which is something everyone can use every once in a while.

Let him have his cake and eat it, too. It's not like we've got anything to lose in this especially with Denver and SD coming up. We need all the confidence we can get, and this only lends respect from the rest of the team. Comradery shouldn't be underestimated at this point. And no, I'm not a huge proponent of Cassel, but we can't deny the fact that he's shown up to play as of late. Who's to say he can't do more?

when I first read this, I thought you were memememeeeeeeee for a few seconds, scared me.

Rexx · 12-02-2010, 11:17 AM

This should have went to Bowe. He has posted monster numbers over the last month. Either way, been a while since this is happened...so definitely a good sign.
