Most other QB's in the NFL, either starter or back-up, can do the same thing Cassel is doing for far much cheaper price. In all, he's not playing like a $60 million dollar QB should be playing.
And from your point of view, that they were trying to be physical, I do agree with you on that assessment, on defense. On offense, it's a work in progess, but if the Eagles game was any indicator of it, then there's some progress, progress that we all want to see, becuase we didn't have that physical game last year.
My issue isn't about beating the dead horse. My issue here is, how come the coaching staff, or to a degree, the GM, still continue to trot the dead horse out there, when there is no apparent progress up to this point, and nothing was addressed on the depth on that particitular position before the season started. My issue is the how people at 1 Arrowhead Drive don't see the big picture on Cassel?
And for whatever it's worth, I don't think it is slinging shit or pushing buttons. I call how I see it, and if people doesn't like it, then that's their problem. They need to grow some thick skin or move on.

It isnt about thick skin, its about shit we already know. EVERYONE knows Cassel isnt it. Its about how many times or ways we need to know that. We dont need to know that 1+1=2. and we dont need to know why 1+1= 2 yet its apparent that people need to tell us why it does.
Am I to believe that you were in the the war room and knew that the Chiefs wouldnt draft Stafford if he was there?
Tell me why, Weiss not needing the money an OC gets, wouldnt down right require the Chiefs to draft Claussen when he was there in the second. Its a guy he recruited and saw for 3 yrs. Think about it...... Weiss takes a job he doesnt need and has a clear chance to draft a QB that he knows better than anyone on this board. ....... and doesnt take him.
