Chiefs Interception with 2 min left. Who's fault? - Page 3

googlegoogle · 12-27-2009, 04:13 PM

Len Dawson said Cassel underthrew it.

I saw the replay and it was perfect pass but a perfect int by their good corner.

Where do you lean on this?

An intercepted pass is far from perfect.

That and he has to have faith in his QB to know when a receiver is covered and to throw it away of check it down.

Look, if Milkman were to tell me I am dumb, then I might step back and rethink my position. It was a shitty throw, I will give you that. I am not trying to take away from Cassel's suckage an any way shape or form. We have seen that same throw made multiple times this season. And pretty much everytime it has been... FAIL!

Cassels; this isn't an instance where the WR mis-read the coverage and optioned to a different route (QB and WR not being on the same page).

they were on the same page, and it was a p*ss poor throw.

Chambers didn't

It's only a jump ball if both the WR and the CB have an EQUAL opportunity to grab the ball. Chambers was at a disadvantage, due to a shitty throw, and made an effort to grab the ball, but couldn't.

Chambers isn't a CB. It's not his job to play one because Cassel makes a bad throw, and I certainly can't get pissed at him for not playing one very well.

AKA a normal Cassel deep pass

100% Cassel.

wild1 · 12-27-2009, 06:14 PM

The last one was just a bad throw. Some other plays, the announcers made comments about the receivers being slow coming out of their breaks and otherwise not doing Cassel any favors.

We really miss Tony Gonzalez.

jspchief · 12-27-2009, 06:19 PM

1 on 1 coverage, it wasn't a poor decision to throw to him... it was a bad throw because he put it in the wrong place

TRR · 12-27-2009, 06:39 PM

It was a bad throw by Cassel...And Chambers didn't do much to help him.

All the Cassel bitching is for not. He is the Chiefs QB for the forseeable future. I can't wait till he is afforded another weapon or two, and a consistent OLine.

Metrosports postgame was pretty positive of Cassel.

**Rain Man** · 12-27-2009, 08:10 PM

It was definitely good defensive coverage, and the throw didn't take that into account.

I'm still amazed about the touchdown that Castille caught. That was the definition of an ill-advised throw, and I'm shocked that Castille caught it and that he's not lying in a morgue right now.

You must really be dumb as shit.

The ball was underthrown by three yards, and it was thrown to the wrong shoulder of the receiver. He threw it to Chambers' right shoulder when it should have gone over his left...and that's assuming he hit him in stride, which he wasn't even close to doing.

Both picks were his fault. He's a piece of shit quarterback and the worst contract this team has ever doled out. Ever.

He sucks but you have a short memory or a tainted one.Cassel will be gone in 2 years.

Chester McGlocksuck ring a bell? How about Kendrell Bell? Pat Surtain, huge ****ing contract at the time (2nd round pick trade as well).

Napoleon Harris, straight stole $.

Thats the problem, a history of spending $ on shit players.

This is the only arguable point in your post, and it could serve as the genesis of an interesting debate.
