He really played really well down the stretch in leading the Cardinals to 3 wins in their last 4 games, including a win against the 9ers.
Kid has upside.
Kevin Kolb had a single game in which he passed for fewer than 200 yards, a 153 yard game against the Ravens.
The Cardinals gave up too much for him, and he likely will not be starting in a couple of years, but he's still better than Cassel, and so is Skelton.

Sounds like you're basing your opinion on passing yards per game. I don't know if that tells you much. Cassel has the second most passing yards in a single game in Chiefs history.
Skelton and Kolb might be better than Cassel, (although, I doubt it with Kolb) but it's early to say it isn't debatable.
