Derek Anderson and Max Hall aren't even good enough to be 3rd stringers, let alone starters. They are Tyler Palko bad. I think you need to rewind back to the Chiefs/Cardinals game two years ago where Derek Anderson was throwing the ball 10 yards over the receivers' heads on every single pass.
What are you arguing about? Didn't you already acknowledge that we shouldn't be comparing Bowe to Fitzgerald?

I'm arguing the fact that you say that Bowe is not a receiver that can take over games in the playoffs.
When the QB has more than one option in the passing game, a receiver can take over a game.
When a QB has only one real option in the passing game, that reciver can be neutralized.
When a limited QB has only one optinon in the passing game, that receiver can be taken from the game completely.
And no, Cassel is not appreciably better than Derek Anderson and a rookie Max Hall.
Cassel is inaccurate, can not throw intermediate and deep balls, and can not read a defense, and he wilts under fake pressure.
Other than he's a hell of a QB.
