Which is exactly what some of us have been saying for three years.

There's a difference between actual pressure and perceived pressure. Any time a defender is within 5 yards of Cassel, dude freaks.

I personally think its psychological with him going back to his USC days. I call it the backup syndrome, its the fear of getting your shot but being too afraid of making a mistake to take full advtange of your opportunity. Its why he doesn't force many interceptions, its why he freaks in the pocket, he just thinks about it too much. Cassel has played his best when we are basically in a 2 minute no huddle mode, just sort of backyard style play is when he has made alot of his best plays. Basically not thinking about the play and letting natural talent take over.
