Green had absolute shit for receivers. Other than Gonzalez and Holmes, he had nobody to throw to.

Thanks I didn't get to watch and only listened to the game for about a half. Definitely stupid to kick to Cribs they should have just pooched it every time.

I think Cassel is inaccurate and working with crap. In short, he has the hallmarks of the backup QB that he's always been. |

Cassel had thrown good passes, but at the same time, he was way behind of some of his passes as well.

And outstanding game manager, to be sure, but a game manager nontheless. Those Chiefs won because of defense, a great O-Line, and clearly, the most underrated WR ever. I am not of the opinion, however, that a game manager is a bad thing. I actually believe that Cassel has the tools to be a pretty good game manager when he has some talent to work with. His accuracy in New England was not an issue, so I'm not overly concerned with that. I think TRR is right, some of that is on the talent around him. I do think he has inferior arm strength, but that isn't nearly the issue that many think it is. My biggest concern with Cassel is lack of pocket presense and poor decision making. Those have to be worked out in order for him to really succeed. His decision making pisses me off more than antthing.

My biggest bitch about Green was trading a 1st for a guy that was scheduled to be a free-agent the very next year. IIRC, I wanted to bring in Collins (free-agent at the time) for the year and grab Green for free the next year.

After Green's first season, NOBODY was claiming he was an "accurate" passer. Most of Green's backers did however see the forest for the trees, and understood that CONSISTENCY was needed in several areas just like it is for Matt Cassel. Posted via Mobile Device |

It's not like there wasn't reason to believe the latter. I could understand differing views. |

Yes, it was his best game statistically, but nothing was shown today that changes my mind about his potential. |

Stop generalizing the fanbase, because as I've said many times before the whole issue that year was the WR's learning the Saunders' system. Thus running wrong routes due to the complexities of the scheme.

I normally agree with the majority of your posts, but not this round. Trent had a FAR superior offensive line, Priest Holmes to lure in defenses and catch passes out of the backfield, a HOF TE in his prime, and Kennison to stretch the field with his speed. You're comparing apples to oranges if you think Cassell is even on an even playing field.

The rest were in part due to a poorly thrown ball. Catchable, yes, but not easy. Two that stand out was one to Bowe than was thrown high, and wobbled more than any pass that I think I've ever seen. It should have been caught, but it would have been a good catch. The second was the ball in the back of the end zone to a double teamed Copper. One defender got his hands between between Copper's. Had Copper caught it, it would have been an outstanding catch bordering on spectacular.
