And Cassel better damn well perform. Thus far, he's been sub-par, at best.

This is the part I don't understand. Sanchez got a TON of credit for doing some impressive things, but mostly being a little erratic... but he won games. Now that his defense is giving up some scores late in the games, suddenly, the "Sanchez just knows how to win games" argument doesn't apply. Meanwhile, Cassel has done a lot of the same things as Sanchez. He's been largely ineffective most of the game, but in the three games the defense kept the opposing offense honest, Cassel engineered go-ahead drives in each of those games late in the game.
Let's face it. The ONLY reason there was so much Sanchez ball-washing was because he won games. Now that he's not, it's becoming extremely clear that the two are having very similar seasons production-wise.
What is the definition of subpar, really? Because Big Ben's game has always been about managing the game early, letting the defense put them in the position to win games, and then making some big plays late in the 4th quarter. Has Cassel really done anything all that different?
What do we really want out of our QB? The big playmaker or the guy that knows how to close games?
