Chiefs article on front page of NFL.COM
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100...P11_hot_topics
Ian Rapoport NFL Network Cassel is not Kansas City's long-term answer; time for Quinn to get a shot I like Matt Cassel. This has nothing to do with his concussion or cheering an injury -- something that made offensive tackle Eric Winston lash out -- appropriately -- at fans. Instead, it's the reality of the NFL. Cassel is not the long-term answer for the Kansas City Chiefs. Great guy, good leader, but not a good enough quarterback. Through five mistake-filled games, Cassel is in the bottom half of the league in quarterback rating, completion percentage, yards, etc. Yet he also has a stellar running game, which should make him more efficient. Backup Brady Quinn came in Sunday and, though it's a limited sample size, went 3-for-3 for 32 yards. It's time for more snaps from Quinn. Charley Casserly NFL.com At 1-4, Chiefs have every reason to try something new The one team I would look at is the Chiefs. With Matt Cassel struggling and then getting hurt, it could be time for a change in Kansas City. Besides the fact that Brady Quinn came into the game and did some positive things, Cassel is a middle-of-the-road quarterback who needs to play smart, turnover-free football to be successful. He also needs a talented cast around him. The momentum is there for a switch in K.C. and I would do it. They're 1-4 and not playing well. If Quinn fails, they can go back to Cassel. And maybe the break would be good for him anyway. |

https://www.facebook.com/WIBWSports has a post asking "What's your take on the fans at Arrowhead cheering for Cassel's injury?"
Lots of dumbass comments on there. My reply: It amazes me that people think the fans were booing Cassel getting hurt. I'm sure a few probably did, but the majority of the fans were cheering the first down the play resulted in (encouraged by DBowe) and the fact that Brady Quinn was coming on the field. They also cheered and applauded when Cassel got off the field under his own steam. It also amazes me that no one is going back to the game footage and seeing this for themselves. Chiefs fans are the most passionate and diehard fans in the NFL who have put up with a crappy product for too many years to count. Check your facts before casting aspersions.

His is rated as the NEXT TO LAST QB in the league!!!
Only rookie Weeden of the Browns is lower, by a few points. HE SUCKS!!! HE ALSO HAS TONS OF WEAPONS, MORE THAN 75% OF OTHER TEAMS AND HE IS STILL A GIANT FAIL
