The fact is Cassel stepped into a record breaking offense that had come off an 18-1 season and couldn't muster 22 TD passes. Thigpen inherited one of the league's most anemic offenses (4-12 season), a new O/C, a rookie OLT and many other rookies and yet his stats almost match Cassel's.
That is more than a boxscore, that is just a plain NFL football fact. And Cassel will cost $80 million over the long haul while Thigpen is playing for the league minimum. Meanwhile, KC has the league's most pathetic defense and invests a mint in a backup QB. Nice.

I voted bad, since the poll didnt really give us much options.... I dont think he will be terrible, but I also am "not sold" (true fan'ism) on him.
Cassel is a "safe" move, Not a QB that will lead you to the promise land but wont embarrase you either... He is the kind of QB that "true fans" masturbate at night over... |

There is nothing safe about Cassel. He's a boom or bust guy. What I can't understand is how people that are against Cassel are for drafting Mark Sanchez?

How often do 11-5 teams miss the playoffs? With that being asked, I can see Cassel in a system with great talent around him, being very consistent but not great. Why against Sanchez? I not nor am I against Stafford, but we have seen what Cassel can do in the NFL, I wouldnt be surprised if MS or MS both have a higher ceiling.... |

Nothing would thrill me more than for Cassel to elavate the talent around him and make them play at a higher level because of him... |

He has people to throw the ball to, but you're right, they are nowhere near Moss and Welker. What's key for me is that we have a pretty good offensive coaching staff. If we still had Herm, there is no way in hell I would want Matt Cassel here.

I'm not against Sanchez, but the same arguments everyone is making about Cassel apply to Sanchez as well.

Was I extremely disappointed over the trade? Sure I was, it was like a horse kick to the stomach... Was it the wrong/right trade. I sure hope to God I am wrong, Nothing would suck more to see this trade, which will turn out to be the most important trade in the history of Pioli/Haleys tenure, to turn out Carlesque levels... I was hoping the Chiefs would step out on a limb and do something unCarl like... I got my hopes up on a drafting and developing a new QB, It was my fault and my fault only... I guess it shows how uneducated I really am when it comes to the Chiefs, I hoped in one and and shit in the other.... |

What makes Sanchez a bonafide stud being a first round pick, and what makes Cassel a complete failure being basically a 2nd rounder.
Both have one year experience and both carry big time risks.

Now that the local media has started it's Monday break downs, I'm hearing a lot of the opinion that several people here have expressed, that being "he's an improvement to be for sure, but is he a franchise quarterback for the long haul"? And it's a valid question.
