Why do people act like he just materialized from the ether? Matt Cassel played football last year and anyone that watched those games realized that he wasn't an accurate passer. He had great WRs that could go get the ball and they made him look decent.
He will never be an accurate passer. He is what NE knew he was - a backup QB.

That's not true.
Cassel, after he became more comfortable in the offense, the one that was adjusted to his skillset, was far more accurate than people ar giving him credit for on short to intemediate routes.
But the problem is, much like Thigpen, he only really played well when they put him in the shotgun/spread for the majority of snaps.
That same problem still exists.
