Top 10: Regrettable NFL Offseason Decisions
No.1 - Kansas City Chiefs trade for Matt Cassel
A silent alarm should have sounded for the Chiefs when the New England Patriots sold off “franchise” Matt Cassel for such a cheap price. Getting good value from Bill Belichick is like getting a good deal from a greasy used-car salesman: you’re lucky if you get what you pay for. Cassel looked shiny and nice while he was on Belichick’s lot, but so have many players. Belichick makes his squad into overachievers and then sells high, only to see his parts fail elsewhere. See: Deion Branch, David Givens and Ty Law. The Chiefs also signed Cassel to the richest contract in franchise history before he even played a snap, which may have been premature. A simple six-month test drive wouldn’t have hurt. He has ”bust” written all over him and his early struggles in training camp are just the early evidence that the Chiefs got a lemon. http://www.askmen.com/top_10/sports/...decisions.html ___________________ While I don't agree with the long term signing, I don't think it deserves #1. |

He obviously disagreed with those moves. He can disagree without being upset, just as I am doing with you right now, brushing aside your ignorant speculative comment about my literacy.

Actually, the distance the ball travels in the air is about 55 yards, since it is thrown in the middle of the field at about the 45 and caught on the sideline at the 15. The question was not the accuracy of the pass, but whether or not anyone could show me a video of a "deep pass" by Cassel that was not FLOATED. I am not questioning Matt's accuracy, but rather his arm strength. There is no way to deny that pass is floated. It has a high arc and spends about four seconds in the air. A "zipped" pass is "flat" and "fast." A "floater" is soft with lots of arc and much longer time in the air. So, once again, I ask the Red Planet here, can anyone show me a pass by Cassel of more than 25 yards in the air that is a ZIPPED flat fastball, not a floating arcing sky high softball??? Start the Jeopardy! music... |

Oh, garbage. His arm is stronger than Trent Green's.
If you find fault with this throw you're a fool.

Honestly, if you cannot or will not read what I post, there is no sense replying. That is not a ZIPPED deep pass. It is a FLOATER. It is an accurate FLOATER, but it is indeed a FLOATER. It isn't a perfect spiral and Moss actually has to wait about a half second for it to get there. It is late getting there because it lacks MUSTARD, ZIP, ARM STRENGTH, LAZER...
Can you understand that ACCURACY and ARM STRENGTH are 2 different things??? |

Trent Green had a weak arm for an NFL starter. The greatness of the Chief Offense during Trent's tenure here was the OFFENSIVE LINE, which was the best OL in recent history of the NFL. Priest Holmes and each and every one of his backups got 150 yards per game without much trouble BECAUSE OF THE OL. Trent Green's passer rating was excellent because Trent had time to see the field and step into his throws.
Put Trent Green behind a sorry offensive line and, well, what did the last Chief playoff game look like??? |
