[chiefscafan]

Stanzi posts have been on here but I'm currious do you start him now? Or do you stick with cassel and see if he can turn it around?


Now more than ever this is becoming a reality.

Stanzi has some tools that could allow him to be a solid QB in the league. That said, playing him too early would probably ruin him, because I doubt he's ready. I'm a big hawk fan and before the draft compared Stanzi to Cassel.

He's got the size, he's got the arm, he's got the work ethic, he's got experience in the big games(which Cassel doesn't).....BUT for every game he looked great or every fantastic throw made under pressure, he'd make the most bone-headed Casselesque throw into triple coverage.

No offseason, no minicamps.....no work in the offseason in a professional capacity....no.

I'd rather he have more time to study and learn before being thrown to the wolves. maybe later in the season for experience.

I thought Stanzi was a gunslinger? He'd throw into triple coverage believing he'd make it fit. Cassel doesn't believe when he throws, he hopes. Seeing Stanzi looking downfield dodging the pressure during one of the preseasons games pretty much solidified him as an anti-Cassel in my mind.

Is he a chess grandmaster of the Manning/Brady cut like Luck is said to be? Probably not. He's not Cassel either though.

Your math is off on the interceptions.

4.5 INTs per game

When you say destroy, do you mean destroyed like we were at home against hte bills when Cassel had a great game?

Or perhaps you mean destroyed like we were in Detroit?

Get this through your head, our chiefs are already destroyed this year....Destroyed....Can stanzi do any worse?

If so how? What throw 3 int's and fumble it up? Really how would it be worse?

If he gets hurt? You mean like Moeaki, Baldwin, Berry, charles, (prolly Hali)?

Really what do we lose?

I certainly would not start him. But I would have him IN UNIFORM AND ON THE SIDELINE to go in when the game is out of reach. GET HIM SOME ****ING NFL EXPERIENCE!!!

Laz was saying let's not destroy the guy, not the team.

That's exactly how I see it. Maybe get him some snaps (not a start, time in a game) later in the season if he shows he's ready. (I think the fact that he's inactive to this point speaks to his current readiness)

And I don't stick with Cassel through thick and thin. Scour the waver wire, make a trade for another backup, whatever it takes to make the position competitive (as in competitive in a game, giving the team a chance to win).

As far as the '12 draft, if we're in position I say take Luck or another QB, regardless of Stanzi. There's absolutely no downside to having multiple developmental quarterbacks. Best case scenario is that they both flourish and you have the opportunity to trade one of them, as the Chargers were able to do with Brees and Rivers. Worst case (well, not 'worst' technically; that would be both flopping) is that one is what you want as a starter and the other is a career backup.

He does have an arm and when he throws it, I do think he believes he'll get the ball through the needle. As an Iowa fan, I've seen him make some awesome throws, in big games, last play of game, running out of time on 4th down and you'll say "holy shit"....and then he'll be in a game vs bubble gum state, and he'll wobble-launch 2 consecutive passes into the gut of a 500lb tackle who is only playing because 3 starters have the juicy poops.

With the right coaching, he may very well make this football thing a career, but that's more likely with more time IMO. I'll gladly own it if I'm wrong and I hope I am, but I think he's Todd Collins.


I'd love to see him get some mop-up or blow-out snaps, but not as a starter this year.

Yeah I got it, but my point remains the same. They dont want him as QBOTF anyways, my only point is, since he's never gonna get a decent shot, put him in. Hell we let Brodie try...we had no problem breaking Mr. Glass....
