And Haley's shitty plan to start the season had nothing to do with the Bills game? It was all Pioli? The GM had Palko in waiting because his coach insisted on it....Palko was 100% Haley. Sometimes a GM has to allow their coach some decisions. The GM went into the season planning on the starting QB making it through the year....just like every other GM assumes. |

We still have a shitty QB. That's the whole ****ing reason I think we're going to get our asses beat against real football teams with real QBs this year.

Oh, I agree totally. And they should start to take over if we are going to contend year in and year out. And if he hit on Stanzi, then I will most definately give him his due credit!

Any fan of a franchise that hasn't won a playoff game in nearly 2 decades act the same. If Pittsburgh was on the same futility streak they'd act the same way. Getting excited over a playoff win isn't being satisfied, its being happy we were finally thrown a bone. |

What? That's ****ing stupid. It's ****ing lunacy for a team to go into the year with no suitable backup QB. Why the **** do you think the 49ers went and got Steve Young even when they had Joe Montana?

I think Cassel has proven that with a good supporting cast, he can play the "don't **** up" game against bad teams. And there will be a few games here and there against average teams where he'll play well enough not to lose. I think this team is talented enough to support Cassel to a 6-7 win season against a good schedule. Not that we should be happy about that.

cherry picking luck is great.....I can name many more good teams that faltered with a below average backup than you can name teams that thrived with a backup.

Except for the QB. And that one miss is enough to turn us from a Super Bowl calibre team to a 6-8 win team. So no, we don't have a Super Bowl calibre roster. But one move changes that. |

This is as good a thread as any to post this.
I'm listening to the PFW podcast, a NE Patriots' focused web radio program, done on the third day of the draft. They're really upset with the Patriots' 2nd round pick, Travis Wilson (multipurpose DB from Illinois). Apparently this was way before the draft prognosticators predicted he'd be taken. The interesting part of it is that they're saying that if Belichick wanted a flexible DB, he should have taken Alabama's DeQuan Menzie (the guy the Chiefs got in round 5) with that pick. They went on to talk about guys they might like to see NE take in the later rounds. They didn't mention too many (maybe 8 guys or so), but they mentioned both Devon Wylie (Chiefs 4th round pick) and Cyrus Gray (Chiefs 6th round pick). FWIW

Even Carl Peterson and Herm Edwards had the sense to go get a guy like Damon Huard.

Those teams were prepared in the event of a disaster. Last year the Chiefs were woefully unprepared and unless Ricky Stanzi magically is amazing or Brady Quinn starts shitting tiffany cufflinks, we are ****ed again.
