47 sacks behind a good Patriot O-line begs to differ.

:clap:

A good O-Line that gave up two of those sacks to the Chiefs?

Hey we had 4 times that many sacks the rest of the season. Show some respect now. :D

Yep, even more reason to believe Cassel holds onto the ball to long. Besides one of those sacks came off of a flea flicker that didnt play out like expected.

Actually, it's quite irrelevant.

If you watched Cassel play you would know he doesn't hold the ball too long. The Patriots had a lot of problems in protection.

Have you seen Cassel holding the ball too long this preseason? **** no.

So this means Tom Brady would have taken about 47 sacks also? I dont see it happening

They still are having problems..

Cassel goes through his reads and find the open man so well that holding onto the ball is not an issue.

Ok, ill take your word for it. I didnt watch all of his snaps last year. It was probably a good mix of both Cassel's inexperience and Patriots offensive line not what it was in 06 or 07.

I think it's obvious Brady wouldn't have taken as many sacks. Cassel hadn't played in a long time and it showed at times. But at the same time, Brady didn't even last a game, maybe it was a freak play, but he got hurt for the first time in his career. And even this preseason, he's been clobbered a couple times.
