yeah, unlike all those other good QBs who were surrounded by shitty players...thanks for the insight...

So? Manning was slinging the ball to Harrison, Wayne, and Clark during that time and was the only QB to throw for more yards over a couple years span Green was in KC.

LMAOLMAOLMAO

Charles had a magical season last year....our passing offense was one of the worst in the league

you are a ****ing idiot

Yep, Jamaal Charles is worth 7 points a game to this offense and Cassel isn't worth shit.

in Cassel's "magical season" he averaged 200 yards per game, completed only 58% of his passes, barely threw for 3000 yards and helmed the 30th rated passing attack in the league...

meanwhile Charles had the second highest yards per carry in nfl history...

Cassel is a joke

Yes he is worth something. And that value is negative. He's below replacement level as Orton made abundantly clear.

Well yes, by Cassel standards that is a "magical" season.

To every other QB worth thier salt that's a piss poor season...

I know wutamess is going to be a knee-jerk reaction kid. 1 good game by Cutler (no TD passes and stalling in the redzone) outweighs several years of really good QB play by Green. No point debating anything.

When did we acquire Cutler?

All of Cassel's high QB rating was embedded in his TD/Int rate, which is really noisy. As the Grantland article made clear, Cassel is the ****ing worst QB in the league who has attempted 1000 passes over the last 3 years. Yet we still get these morons that use "magical" and "Cassel" in the same sentence. Cassel is garbage.

Cassel is magical. How else can you explain how he managed to make multiple millions of dollars and keep his starting job despite his tremendously piss poor play?

I don't usually do the age smack thing, but you have GOT to be 12 years old. Or younger.

I remember when I was that young and the Chiefs had the best QB in the league and would win all their games including the Super Bowl. Fun times.

Good receivers can help elevate a QB.

But you have to have at least a mediocre ability to elevate.

Cassel and Palko can only strive for mediocrity.

Bowe drops a lot of crucial balls.
Breaston has been pretty good.
Baldwin is still unknown. I've seen him "Almost" make some circus catches, but almost doesn't get you anywhere.

The Packer receivers lead the league in drops, according to stat posted elsewhere.
But no one realizes this, because Rodgers has been so spectacular that it masks that fact.

Rodgers had an off game against the Chiefs, and it is not solely because of the defense.

People keep talking about Pioli being too stubborn to move on from players, but where is the proof? He's parted ways pretty quickly with early draft picks like Magee. He hasn't forced coaches to keep free agent acquisitions that they didn't want - he must have brought in at least 8 WRs in 3 years.

Yeah, cause 3rd round picks and scrubs off the scrap heap are = to trading for a guy that you think is your franchise QB and signing him to a huge contract.

Looking back thru the Chiefs draft history back to 1960, the only QBs who's names I recognize are Brody Croyle and Steve Fuller. Fuller was a good backup for Jim McMahon on the Super Bowl Bears of the 80s. That's the absolute best they've ever done at drafting the QB position.

KC just doesn't have any history of being able to draft a QB at all. Yet now, that's exactly what you want to risk the team's next 4-5 years on...

Well, since this franchise has only drafted a first round QB a total of 4 times in it's history, they haven't actually shown that they can't draft QB.

And the only names you recognize are Fuller and Croyle?

Todd Blackledge?

Really?
