I think that's a pretty big exaggeration. Brady's not exactly lighting the world on fire in his return.

I've said many times that one reason I like Cassel is because of that "it" factor that you spoke about with Sanchez. Cassel improved significantly last year. And he did so because he has a ridiculous work ethic and he's a quick study. I'm not so convinced that many QBs would have that sort of discipline to get better as quickly as he did. And he did so in an offense which, while they ran the ball quite a did, still did so with mostly an aerial attack--most first-time quarterbacks who succeed do so because they rely exclusively on the running game.

I don't want Trent Green again, people still make excuses for him. Trent was a product of what was around him, I want a QB that makes the players around him better.

I fear that will become the tact for years to come that no matter what the Chiefs Cassel will always be given a pass because he doesn't have a perfect team.

Sanchez has looked good.

The point is, you'll never know how Cassel would do with the Jets, and you'll never know how Sanchez would do with the Chiefs. They are two entirely different situations and you'd have to be on crack to say that the Chiefs' situation is even remotely close to being as nice and cooshy as the Jets'.

You should have seen it over at the Mane this off season with the Cutler trade. Much worse than this place with Cassell. Some of those idiots think Cutler would have already won the Super Bowl for us three times if we had even a Pop Warner team around him apparently. Others were sure that he has always eaten babies. Crazy shit.

It's not but lets be frank, how many people picked the Jets to finish in last? Or win 4 or 5 games?

No one thought they'd start 3-0 I'd venture most thought 0-3.

exactly.... Trent Green was a nice QB but he wasn't great... I want a "great" player at QB for the Chiefs.... I guess I am greedy

I didn't. Not with a rookie QB.

Sometimes situations and personnel just don't fit.

There's a good number of QB's that could have did what Trent did, he stood in the pocket all day, never got touched had an elite running game.

If we had someone with a big arm like a Drew Bledsoe back there in a situation where he wouldn't get touched he'd have probably broken a passing record.

That's all well and good. But you can't polish a turd. It's not like it's Cassel's fault that his o-line keeps blowing their assignments, or that the Chiefs can't move the ball an inch on the ground.

I've seen Cassel do a lot of things that Green does not. If you watch him at the line of scrimmage, he's a lot more active in calling out assignments and audibles. And whereas Green was a pure zone QB that relied on pass protection to give receivers time to hit their spots, Cassel's been a lot less shy and a lot more capable about gunning the ball into tight spots.

I think Cassel has the upside to be much better than Green. But that's not going to happen when you have the worst offensive line in football. No QB can succeed under those conditions. Even Big Ben doesn't have to deal with an o-line this bad.

I'm honestly starting to wonder if Cutler would have had the patience to run the new Bronco Offense.

Mecca 09-28-2009 01:19 AM

I blame alot of this shit on Pioli and Haley, if he didn't like Gailey or his playbook you gotta make that call earlier than 2 weeks before the season.

Pioli knew this Oline was a can of smashed assholes if he didn't then he's extremely naive.

He never struck me as the patient type. His body language when a play wasn't made pretty much told the tale.

There's a lot of shit that pisses me off.

Ignoring the offensive line.
Playing musical ****ing chairs with receivers, when Cassel needs every last rep to build timing with his receivers
Not hiring a ****ing quarterbacks coach to tutor Cassel

You would think that when the Chiefs made all the effort to get Cassel, they'd try just a little harder to give him opportunity to get comfortable in this offense. People loved the idea of demoting Bowe or benching Bradley against Oakland. **** that. The idea pissed me off then, and it pisses me off today too.
