No you are right. He did not "have" to make a play in the 4th quarter. He did however "have" to make a play in the 2nd quarter, and he did. Defense had been on the field nearly the entire first 2 quarters, and had somehow held the Rams to 6 points. Offense had to make a statement... or game possibly slips away. Cassel more than made some plays to back up his defense.

If we're talking about today, two of the drives were killed not because of a conservative pass play but because the receiver completely failed to secure a catchable pass. |

I probably know 1,000th what you do about football, but I guarantee you that I know 1,000 times more about people than you. There's no doubt watching that game today that Cassel is a leader. His teammates responded to that leadership.

I understand that he needs to beat better competition. I'm not totally sold on him yet either. But to say he's merely been a game manager or Trent Dilfer does not jive with what's actually been going of late with Cassel. |

But last week, the offensive line sucked...seriously, the worst of all year. It's like they were discouraged before the first snap. My confidence in Brodie did suffer a serious blow last week as well. But I don't agree. I thought the play calling was rediculous, they should have opened it up regardless. |

Chiefsplanet is such a reactionary message board. I am as happy as anyone with the way Cassel is playing, but he has to do it for more than a few weeks, and against better competition than the teams we have been playing. No, the schedule isn't his fault, but it is still something that has to be accounted for. Is Cassel up to it? We'll just have to wait and see, but this idea that you have to jump on the bandwagon right ****ing now is horseshit.
Sometimes a more measured approach is necessary. If we accept that Cassel's abortion of a 2009 campaign was not enough to make him a shitty QB, then surely one month of solid play isn't enough to make him a franchise quarterback. Many of us want to see Cassel keep this up, but against better competition and when it REALLY counts, in the playoffs. |
