Clark Judge loves Matt Cassel, and so should you.

One that can beat the Sisters of the Poor in the NFL, but can't win the games that matter most.

The last two weeks have shown us that he has the ability to play like an elite QB against bad teams.

Can he replicate that ability against good teams?

Against good teams on the road?

Or in a game in which Charles/TJ get shut down?

Can Matt Cassel perform like a franchise QB when his team needs him the most?

...just like Peyton did against the Chargers...at home.

No offense, Steve, but that's ridiculous, and you know it.

Peyton Manning answered all the questions we have about Cassel in his rookie year, and is nothing less than a Top 5 QB in the history of the NFL.

Sorry, but he gets the benefit of the doubt for having a bad game or two every three years.

Maybe if Cassel shows, just once, that he can do any of the things Manning has been doing consistently for over a decade, you can make that comment again, and I'll only snicker instead of laughing so hard it hurts.

you constantly compare him to franchise qb's, and expect him to be one in year two (mainly based on contract).. then don't hold franchise qb's to the same standard.


just like you claimed they were gonna suck, and now expect them to be playoff contenders.

laughing so hard it hurts?

oh snap.

I expected it because of his age, too.

Yeah, it's not like the guy hasn't been in the league for 6 years or anything.

And it's not like there isn't a similar example up in GB to compare the situations, albeit a younger example.

One guy sat on the bench behind a HOF'er, and when given his chance to start, played like a franchise QB from Year One. No excuses.

The other guy sat on the bench behind a HOF'er, and when given his chance to start, played like an average/below average QB, and is still getting every benefit of the doubt after 40+ starts.

One guy didn't wear a Chiefs uniform.
