Chiefs NE vs. Jets Nov.'08 on NOW

sparkky · 03-01-2009, 01:44 PM

Just a FYI, Cassel and the Pats are on the NFL network now playing Favre and the Jets from November last season.

Yeah. Focus on the second half especially and look at his so called suspect arm strength

The kid is good.

for those of you that have NFL network, i believe he threw for 400 yards this game

Yeah, man, it's a shame our defense couldn't hold them on 3rd and long in OT- if the D just could have done its job, Cassel would be a hero. That throw that he made to Moss at the end for the TD was unbelievable.

That throw to Moss at the edge of the end zone was a thing of beauty.

I'm not sure who was talking shit about Cassel specifically, but 3 days ago the consensus on the board was that he wasn't that good.

Now it seems like everyone is happy.

I think its a good move.

Cassel > Thigpen + Croyle + Sanchez + Stafford combined.

**Buck** · 03-01-2009, 02:13 PM

If I remember correctly, Cassel leads a pretty good drive at the end of the first half and has a pretty good 2nd half, and even leads the Pats to a 4th quarter lead before Favre comes back and leads the Jets to a win.

Yeah, if our D had been even passable in the second half, Cassel would have been a hero.

Perfect Pass to Gaffney...who is now a Donk

RINGLEADER · 03-01-2009, 02:19 PM

Wish we would have signed Gaffney to fill the Gaffney role in our new offense...

Bowe = Gaffney (in the offense, if it's run essentially the same)

That doesn't seem right. Isn't Gaffney the slot or is he the wideout with Wes moving into the slot on three wide sets?

Gaffney is the #2 outside receiver in the 3 receiver set, although he will also line up in the slot on occasion. Think of it this way...

Moss is the medium/deep outside WR
Welker is the short/medium receiver over the middle
Gaffney is the short/medium outside wr
Watson is the medium/long receiver over the middle

That's the basic tree, with the rb capable of slipping out of the backfield, although it's obviously not going to apply 100% of the time. Gaffney would still go deep on occasion, Moss would catch short passes, etc.... but it's the basic framework.

The Pats primarily ran 3WR sets with Welker in the slot.
