Cassel has concussion

The official word after Sunday’s loss by the Chiefs to the Ravens was that quarterback Matt Cassel is being evaluated for a head injury.

The evaluation has been completed. Per a league source, Cassel has a concussion.

And so Cassel’s status will depend on evaluations and opinions from an independent neurologist, who must clear Cassel to practice and play. Until he’s cleared, he can do neither.

Shit, Plunkett threw 19 TDs in his FIRST SEASON.

Quinn has career numbers comparable to BRODIE CROYLE.

But both were given up on before finding their burst.

I'm confused.

Doesn't a concussion require that you actually have a brain?

No franchise QB - nothing else matters.

Game four was 42 passes 22 rushes

Balanced twice. Cassel twice. Tebow once.

The sad part about this game is that the Ravens were primed and ready for a road let down. They were ready to roll over and add this game to the list of road losses to lesser teams, but the Chiefs were determined to make sure that didn't happen. The Chiefs had to work to lose this game, it wasn't easy.

Nope. Fully ninety percent of the membership here don't want the Chiefs to win another game this season. These are the Chiefs fans who boo at victory.

Yeah but we came out every game with the idea that we wanted to run a balanced offense.

This game we decided "**** it, let's go back to the stone age and avoid any chance of turning it over."

Now with a backup QB who has a history of sucking hard, we'll be even more committed to that philosophy.

O.city · 10-07-2012, 08:28 PM

At this point, what do you have to lose by tossing it around?

You can't just run it

It looked like a gameplan, but it wasn't even a gameplan. A game plan would've been, run, run ,run, then play action pass. Repeat. This was just run like it's 1992 Nebraska football.

Which takes us out of the 1st rd stud QB unless we trade up in the draft. Then we still have Pioli & Crennel, I understand why many here wants to lose. But the bottom line is it's not written that Clark is going to get rid of either, sure he would if the fans revolt and renew season tickets.

But almost everyone here all off year long was saying, we have so much talent, offense & defense, all Cassel has to do is not turn it over, we win.

Well ..... the whole teams is in turnover mode. Reason we are 1 - 4 and looking pathetic.

Today's game was the best all around performance we had to date this year. I'm just saying if BQ comes in and does not turn it over as Cassel does and this team continues to get better, we have a balanced game plan,we will win 7 to 8 of our final games.

Uh...because it's the biggest need this team has, and without one you'll never win anything?

Because our hopefully new GM and HC will realize they'll never win anything or keep their jobs without one.
