Chief mistake: Giving Cassel long-term deal now doesn’t make sense
Proof that the national media has it's head up it's ass when it comes to the Chiefs...

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slu...nnsi&type=lgns

It is almost time for some real football. You know, pad poppin’, sweat drippin’, arm tinglin’ football. But for now, there is still some business being taken care of across the NFL. That business includes teams like the Ravens and Chiefs signing their franchise tendered players to long-term extensions. After careful consideration I fully support the Ravens’ decision but question the Chiefs’ actions. Here’s why:

Kansas City should have made Matt Cassel prove he could do it again. The Chiefs made a large financial commitment to Cassel even though the potential exists that he was only a one-year wonder who profited from being in the right place at the right time in New England. It makes you wonder what the hurry was for the Chiefs, who already had an emerging young signal caller in place in Tyler Thigpen. Why not wait until the end of the season before giving Cassel a long-term deal? Yes, the contract numbers might have increased if Cassel proved his worth but how much more would they have had to pay than the $63 million over six years ($28M guaranteed) they are already doling out? And wouldn’t that extra money be worth it if it meant having the peace of mind that Cassel could get the job done with your franchise?

Cassel finished an impressive 10-5 as a starter with the Patriots but he had been able to serve the ideal apprenticeship under Tom Brady for three years before taking the reins of a veteran-laden team that included elite weapons like Randy Moss and Wes Welker. In contrast, Thigpen was thrust onto the field as a second-year player playing with a make-shift offensive line and getting zero support from a defense that produced an NFL-low 10 sacks. Despite those difficulties, Thigpen still finished with a respectable touchdown-to-interception ratio (18 to 12) in 11 games as starter. As a point of comparison, Cassel had a 6-5 record and a 12-10 TD-INT ratio over his first 11 starts. How much better is Cassel than Thigpen and why give Cassel the long-term deal before he takes a snap? I hope the Chiefs know what they’re doing.

---------------

Are you ****ing kidding me?

How many Patriots and/or Chiefs games did this clown even watch last year?

Christ.

No offense to FAX but these might be the best puns ever on CP.

As it turns out, the poster of this thread did not author that Yahoo Sports article.
