13/18, 142 yards, 8 yard average per completion, 4/6 on 3rd down all with his WR fumbling and his OT ruining a drive with 2 straight penalties.
Yes Cassel has been bad the past 3 years, but the way he's playing right now is encouraging.
He plays like he did in 2010 and we win the division.

Because nobody is interested in repeating 2010. We want a team that can consistently be a super bowl contender. We don't want a team that has to build around the qbs weaknesses. We want a team that acts as a support group to the qbs many strengths.
The fear is that the chiefs win the division in unimpressive fashion, lose in the playoffs, but this team becomes further disillusioned that cassel is the answer. We'd be a lot less pessimistic if it didn't seem like this front office as bending over backwards to stubbornly prove that cassel is our long term answer.
