I didn't miss the point. I bet if they weren't on the same page at the time of the interview they are now.



PhilFree:arrow:

So, you're assuming that they spoke after each men were interviewed and what happened exactly?

Yeah I assume that Cassel spoke with Haley or Pioli snce the interviews.


PhilFree:arrow:

Why would you assume that?

So you think it was all for show? Haley states that Cassel will compete for the job, Cassel thinks that he is the starting QB.

The interviews are in direct contradiction, yet you believe that Haley called him just after the interview to clarify that Cassel IS the starting QB?

If so, why say otherwise while on the radio?

That's quite a leap you're taking.

Again, per the interviews, it appears that the coach and QB are NOT on the same page regarding starting status.

maybe they werent on the same page about telling us he's the starter

Whatever. The chiefs aren't paying 14 mil for a back up.

I assume that they spoke sometime after the interview. Cassel apparently had just reached the facilities at Arrowhead so I assume that he met with Pioli or Haley sometime this afternoon or evening. Not really that big of deal. Why do you assume that they haven't spoke since this afternoon?


PhilFree:arrow:

you know what else is funny about the interview was that at the end he said he just found out at 12:00 he was traded. where has he been the last 2 days? or was this interview actually taped sat. or sun

Take it easy fellas! Haley is gonna start the better qb, period. Yeah we're givin Cassell 14 mil, but not in one check I would think. So either way I say we will be decent at qb this year, and that will be a nice change. I like Cassell, his tape looks good. We have weapons for him to use, whether they dont want to be here and whether they like to punch the ladies, they are there. Like Thigpen too, he may be a starter one day though.

Yet in the interview, Haley had an opportunity to publicly state that Matt Cassel was the starting QB in 2009, yet he refused to do so.

Yes, you do.

Quite a bit, I might add.

Could be a negotiating strategy for the upcoming contract.

This is similar to what happens after a draft pick. Peterson was downplaying Dorsey, for example, after taking him last April.

Though this isn't the only possibility, the brass can't exactly drool all over the guy and then go to the table and not expect to be ****ed.

what about what i said in post #23?

I thought he said 12:00 yesterday.


PhilFree:arrow:

When is Thigpen getting his press conference? LMAO
