Watching the quarterbacks
Among the 3 quarterbacks on the roster, the guy who threw the ball best on Thursday was Brady Quinn. He appears to have solid mechanics in his drop and has smoothed out some rough edges that were visible in his motion going back to Notre Dame. Matt Cassel threw several nice passes, but he was high on his throws during much of the session. Ricky Stanzi was OK. @Iowa homers.

“I think they’re beginning to gain a command of the system and some of the checks that we have in place,” Crennel said. “They’re all doing well. Probably, Brady and Matt are a little ahead of Stanzi right now, but they’re all working at it. They’re a good group in that room, so we feel good about them.”

what if a group is pulling for Stanzi, but is against the Cassel/Quinn option.

That is HUGE in giving the defense an opportunity to help us win games. If I remember correctly the defense started to fall apart in the 4th quarter for most of the Cassell games last year.

I think if you are for Stanzi, you are an ABC'er. That's the camp I am in.

Do we still have any CBSers?

Cassel Butt Sexers?

No, but we have a Twiggy for Thiggy and a Ball Dropper for Copper though.

If they are better, of course. But I have no reason to think they are.

The defense wasn't any different when Orton was there and when he wasn't. It's not like they suddenly started playing well when Orton started playing. They were playing well well before Orton came in.

Orton hasn't had the benefit of an effective running game to take the pressure in the red zone to produce.

With Charles and Hillis producing on the ground for the Chiefs this season, Cassel could easily have another meidocre season similar to 2010, wwhich would earn him at least 2 more years with Pioli in charge.

I'll take that chance over Orton coming in and getting 3 years to prove himself.

It's obvious that patience is wearing thin with Cassel. It's obvious that Pioli knows that now. So yeah, if we're going to have a mediocre QB, I'd rather have Cassel because he'll be cut sooner. With Orton, he'd be given 3 years.

Oh, and using the single flea flicker play in one game to come up with Ortion's passing yards per game average is the most dishonest argument I have ever seen on this site.

I didn't do the math. I didn't even remember that play when I copied the stats from PFR. Hell, before this post, I was thinking that PFR had simply made a mistake with their calculations.

In the first 11 games, the defense often played well in the first half, but gave up a ton of points in the second half of games on a fairly consistent basis.

How many times in the first half of the season did the Chiefs get into the mid to late second quarter, or even the third quarter in one game, if I remember correctly, before they even achieved thier first first down.

The defense wore down in those games, and it showed.
Especially against the Bills, the Lions, and the Patriots.

I highly doubt that holds true for Orton, but that's an argument for another day.

However, if Cassel hs another season in 2012 like he did in 2010, there is no argument.

Pioli can point to those numbers and tell everyone that Cassel showed that he's a good QB, just as he has pointed to 2010 to support his claim that Cassel is a good QB.

Okay, but don't let it happen again.(insert smiley)

One thing is certain, Quinn looks a hell of lot more like a QB than Cassel ever did. Not that that amounts to squat.

Didn't think my post was legit, huh?
