Dude, the guy's been awful. He's got 8 TD's and 5 INT's in 6 games. That's terrible.

Many of his "TD's" were when the game was over. The Giants and Eagles had second teamers on the field. It was a practice session at that point.

Yeah, his whole career.

The same career where he's been the league MVP.

The career that has a Super Bowl trophy attached.

The same career that has his team 6-0 with two unknown receivers.

Yep, he's just awful.

Because you're a psychic now?

Cassel won 10 games that he started, not 11. Furthermore, not many teams in the NFL have that line, those receivers, that defense and THAT HEAD COACH.

Cassel is NOT Tom Brady.

First off, if you've watched the Patriots, it wasn't until two weeks ago that Brady looked like "vintage" Tom Brady. They struggled initially with him behind center. It's a miracle the guy is performing as well as he is considering it generally takes most people two years to recover completely from ACL surgery.

Do you really expect the Patriots to lose three more games this year and NOT make the playoffs?

I don't. I'll be surprised if they lose one more game all year.

so that makes his performance "remarkable"?

We dont have the worst recieving corps in the NFL

they arent hofers, but we have a average, maybe somewhat below average, recieving corps.

Vicks receiving corps were known as horrible until Ryan got there, same thing...you have to find the open receiver and he hasnt done that.

Get some free tickets to the next game on craigslist (there will be plenty) and see how many open receivers he misses all game long. Thats all my friends that went to the game could talk about, said all the people sitting around them were saying the same thing and numerous shouts of WTF were yelled repeatedly.

Really?

Then how do you explain the fact that since his first year in the league, his completion percentage has never been below 62% and generally averages around 67%?

Or the fact other than two years when he had 3,700 yards passing, he's had over 4,000 yards each season for 9 out of 10 years?

How do you explain 348 TD's versus only 169 INT's, virtually 2-1 ratio?

If all that was needed was pressure to take Peyton Manning out of his game, I don't think his numbers would be what they are today.

That's a lame argument, Jason.

Tait, Waters, Weigman, Shields & Riley.

I'd take that any day of the week over what the Chiefs have right now.

Waters took over half way and wasnt quite the all pro waters quite yet, he was a dlinemen a few short weeks back iirc.

In 2002, we added Roaf and Waters really started to show up and "the line of fame" was built.

You are incorrect.

Waters was originally signed as an undrafted college free agent by the Cowboys as a tight end. After he was cut, he came to KC and played in 6 games in 2000. He moved into the starting guard position in 2001 and by 2004, was a Pro-Bowler.

None of that negates the fact that the 2001 offensive line was far superior to the 2009 version.

It was superior in hindsight. Walking into 2001 what did you have other than Shields? A LT in Tait who many thought was soft and couldn't cut it at LT. Waters was just starting out on the OL. Weigman was a castoff. Riley was thought of as a bad RT.

Brady came in this year and struggled getting back from his injury. Hes gotten his feet under him now and they will finish better than 11-5. Because Brady is a good QB and Cassel is not. Thigpen could have won 11 games with last years Pats team. And he is in no way a great QB.

Jason, I often agree with you're take on subjects BUT

go to a colts board and say they have always had one of the best lines in the NFL.

it is an untrue statement. Their line has struggled since Glenn retired after their superbowl win.

They arent in the same zipcode of suck that ours is in, but they have been a NFL average line at best and have recently struggled with numerous injuries.

Peyton is GREAT at shuffling around in the pocket and has one of the quickest releases in NFL history.

Teams dont blitz because of that and the fact he is so smart he sees the blitz and disects the defense to find the wide open reciever....Cassel sees that blitz and stops looking downfield.

Cassel will never be a top ten QB

Well, Tait did just fine. Waters was in the Pro-Bowl three years later and many thought he should have been there sooner. Weigman wasn't a "castoff" but a part time player with the Bears. Riley was not thought of as being "bad" but he was a psycho. After his contract was up, he started for New Orleans.

But regardless, it was superior, no matter how you look at it.

Will Cassel be better next year? I don't know. I think it's really up in the air right now.

But how many guys have had a bad 1st year and then... had a bad 2nd year also? Then followed up with a 3rd?

Sometimes guys struggle simply because they're not that good.

All I'm saying, is Cassel SHOULD NOT be judged or analyzed for his performance behind this sorrowful O-line. The comparison tp Trent is just to point that out.

You're wrong.

And furthermore, if all it took was pressure, why wouldn't opposing defensive coordinators just bring the house on each and every passing down?

Oh, that's right. Because Peyton would shred their secondary with his quick release, resulting in touchdowns.

Duh.

You are, of course, wrong.

If he was playing magnificently behind this line, would you say the same thing about him?

He locks onto receivers, won't throw downfield, won't throw into traffic and looks like a deer in the headlights. This offensive line sucks ass but Cassel has just shown nothing.

If they gave him a couple years prep, they could probably teach a monkey to run that offense with all pros all over the place.

He's paid to hit the open guy.

When he misses him, criticism is warranted.

We paid this guy $63 million to be the anti-Thigpen. So far he's quasi-Thigpen.

Behind our O-line there's no time to look off the 'D.' Locking on to the first target and hoping he somehow gets open in the fraction of the second that you got is the bi-product of the woefully short time that he gets.

Please. On Bowe's TD pass he moved his head all the way from the right side of the field back to Bowe on the left sideline.

So, I disagree with the locking on comment to a certain extent. But even if he is, he's flat out overthrowing open guys. That can't happen. Not at his price tag.

Get better or bring on Brokie.

KCBOSS1 10-26-2009 09:35 PM

The discussion of Thigpen and Cassel is mute....We have who we have. But at some point, just because he's gotten the big check doesn't cut as a reasonable excuse. 1-6. Let Brodie throw the ball and show some humility. He can't do any worse. If he gets hurt, you're in no worse condition. If he does well, wins always look better. We do not have our franchise guy. We have a possible talent, though not durable, and it's not Cassel.

Elvis was never this bad.

His problem always seemed to be a brain fart at the wrong time + shitty attitude/asshole tendencies.

The weird thing about Cassel is he has all the "intangibles" and I think he's a really smart guy.

He just...blows it.

If anyone can change their opinion it's me.

I like Cassel but he needs to improve a lot over the last 9 games.

I call it like I see it and Sunday that might as well have been Thigpen.

Im glad you are starting to look at the situation OBJECTIVELY.

No, Thigpen would be forcing defenses to respect his ability to run the ball himself.

Cassel is a taller, slower version of Thigpen that takes a sack instead of gaining positive yards.

If Cassel would just take off running when protection breaks down, teams would respect that and keep a couple defenders back to defend it, sadly enough though, he just goes in his "fetal position drills".

But that's nothing new.

It's "give Thiggy a line, and SUPERBOWL ELEVENTY BILLION!!!!11111" all over again, and it's ****ing disgusting.

I honestly hate half of the fan base of this team, I really ****ing do.

I don't know how you can even compare the two. Thigpen operated in an extremely QB friendly, gimmick spread and he had the ultimate safety valve in Tony Gonzalez. I liked Thigpen, but the situations aren't even remotely similar.

I agree with you there. Last Sunday was the first game where the accuracy issue really became an issue for me.

He has to improve. But until he gets consistently decent protection, it's still tough to make that call. Albert also needs to improve. And Haley has to get a clue and keep Wade Smith at Center and get Goff the **** out of the RG position. Frankly, if today he went with Albert-Waters-Smith-Alleman-O'Callaghan (or with Ndukwe replacing Alleman), I think within a few games, while that offensive line would suck, it would be good enough that we can start to fairly evaluate Cassel's ability.

I've got a question for you.

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

So you are saying the one time he had enough time to look the D off, he tossed a TD pass. Thanks for strengthening my point GoChiefs.

His downfield accuracy reminds me of Thigpen for sure.

Ive never seen a QB overthrow any pass over 15 yards so consistently in the nfl. That includes Thigpen.

Chiefnj2 10-27-2009 09:05 AM

Horrible OL, no running game to take the pressure off, revolving door of starting receivers every week, no to to receiver/safety valve, no QB coach. I can't imagine why he isn't putting up better numbers.

I agree with this and said something similar. Right now the combination of a pocket passer and weak OL isn't working. But I'm sure Haley and Pioli realize this and are working towards next year while getting Cassel more practice. Who really cares about 2009 anyway?

To answer your question:

the people that shell out thousands of dollars annually to support the team in various ways. Many of us have done exactly that and after the last two years, feel we deserve more than a "yeah were gonna suck for the next two years, but dont worry we are gonna raise the prices too..." bs while they sit on so much money that we arent even at the league ****ing minimum!

Have you seen how much the club seating has risen in the last couple years? and is slated to go up to almost double within the next few? Its sick.

The stadium is 1/3 empty for a reason and that takes a big advantage away from the team.

I didn't see the game, but in previous games it looked like he expected more separation by the receiver. At least on some of those overthrows.

He had the exact same problem last year with the best receiving corps in the league.

He couldnt hit what might go down as the best deep threat of all time with the deep ball.

less than a handfull of completions over 21 yards in the air all year long

Yeah... hell... who really cares about 2009. There's always next year. We shouldn't be all expectant of a legitimate professional football team to actually get better in the span of a few seasons. I mean, come on. We have to temper our expectations. They deserve a completely wasted season once in a while, amIright? I mean, what all actually happens during one season? Sheesh. Overrated. We should just wait till <strike>2010</strike> <strike>2011</strike> <strike>2013</strike> 2015 like good downtrodden defeated fans, and be content with the franchise totally wasting an entire season. I mean it's not their fault right? It takes time... If there's one thing this franchise has taught its fans, it's that "There's always hope for next season"®©™

Its not like we have already gone through two complete abortion years of complete and total rebuild, might as well make that four huh.

How far under the cap will we be next year and what bs story will be the excuse as to why that is?

Man, you guys need to ****ing read up.

THERE WILL BE NO SALARY CAP NEXT YEAR.


Which in itself causes all kinds of problems for the Chiefs.

that isnt set in stone yet. If it was, Dallas wouldnt have resigned Ware to a new deal right now because they would own his rights for another year or two because the restriction goes from four years to six.

Teams would also have 2 franchise tags.

Doesnt matter anyway, we have been spending like a small marker team without a cap anyway for the last few years.

We are still below the minimum arent we?

just checking...

It's set in stone. There's no way the two sides come together for a resolution before February.

Bank it.

The QB failure known as Tim Hasselbeck just said on NFL Live that "Matt Cassel is quietly having a great year in KC..."
LMAO

I didn't realize that after week 6, 995 yards passing with 8td's and 5 int's qualifies as a great year. Hell, since I don't get KC football here in Orlando this year, I didn't realize how anemic the O is...damn, someone wake me up in 2012
