Do you remember when Bledsoe was the Dallas qb and how the line was getting crucified? Romo came in and all of a sudden the line wasnt a problem anymore because of his release and his ability to shake the pressure.

Bledsoe took 49 sacks in his last full season...Romo cut that figure more than in half in his first year starting.

If a qb doesnt get the ball out and have a quick release, defenses prey on it

I really hate to say it, but Cassel is playing like Bledsoe back then

Dude, they're not even nearly close to the same situation. Bledsoe is a 7-step drop QB. He's a Trent Green QB--he needs time to go through progressions and a steady pocket to go through reads. Without a stellar offensive line, they're garbage. They have no mobility and their rhythm gets completely disrupted.

Unlike Bledsoe, Cassel isn't taking a lot of coverage sacks. The sacks are coming because of consistent protection breakdowns. Our tight ends are whiffing on almost every block. And between our Center and Guard, they're letting rushers go through untouched like a ****ing matador. Cassel's taking a lot of 3-5 step drops and STILL getting hit as he plants. Watch the first half of the Chargers game and tell me how many times a defender is collapsing on him within 3 seconds. He can't even plant his foot without a defender already right up in his grill.

You can try to massage it all you want, but this offensive line blows more protections more quickly than any offensive line I have EVER seen. I might be the worst offensive line I've ever seen in my life.

Cassel seems to throw to an area and not to the spot that will catch the receiver in stride.

I think Croyle is more of a natural passer who could find a rhythym and get hot. Of course, Croyle has not shown that he can avoid injury.

Cassel seems to me a gamer, but he never looks like he finds a rhythym and makes a lot of good plays in a row.

Oh well.

Let us tutor Flat Castle in the ways of awesomeness.

Okay Flat, I want you to watch( repeatedly. PLEASE )and learn from plays one and two:
