So, still pointing out his seat on the bench.

What this proves is a team can win with a solid running game and defense with an average qb.So people need to stop overreacting over Cassel.No hes not Brady he dose not need to be just serviceable.Some of you just bash Cassel because its the thing to do.But anyway I don`t care bash him hes earned it.That being said I still want Stanzi starting in 2012.

And here we go.....LMAO

I always imagine he recruited the shit out of him then at his first practice mumbled to himself, "**** me I'm reeruned."

With the game on the line was it the offense or defended that wilted?

No, Matt Cassel is not serveicable.

He's a no talent hack who could never make the throws that Smith made in today's game.

He's weak armed and can't read a defense.

This is the battle cry for never wanting to win anything meaningful..

Well done sir.

Agreed. Even though I don't care much for Harbaugh ( I think he acts like a punk and I will always hate him for 95). He looks like one of the really bright young ,minds in the game. amazing job he's done with that team. Coaching and the right QB is everything in the NFL.

Chiefs fan too long...........

Smith threw the ball downfield ALL DAY, especially with the game on the line.

This proves nothing when it comes to Cassel because Cassel can't make those throws. EVER.

JFC because of 1 game? Alex Smith has been a total bust. And he's still a bust after this playoff win.

He's been a bust considering where he was drafted. But he wouldn't be the first guy to figure the game out later in his career.

Has won more playoff games than Chiefs have in 19 years of retread QBdome.

Always because 3 reasons:

1) Chiefs did not draft.
2) 5 year wonder If here, (dead) and wanted killed.
3) Fans jumping on the other 31 players we did not draft per round.

I've had the opportunity to watch all the 9ers games this season. He was ok most of the time and sometimes he was pretty good. Overall he was pretty "meh".

Today, at home, in a huge game, with everything on the line he shined like a star. Today he was a franchise QB.

Could he take his team on the road and do what he did today?
