Apparently the Chiefs and Patriots asked the Rams permission to talk to McDaniels according to Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post Dispatch.

Let the games begin.

Personally, I don't think it is written in stone that Cassel will be back. He has done nothing in 3 years here to solidify that right. I know you don't see it that way but you are in the very minority whit your thoughts.

Crennel has already said if Orton played the final 2 games the way he did against the Packers, then he should have a shot at the starting QB spot next season. And for the most part, Orton did play pretty well the last 2 games.

The absolute worst thing this team needs is to have both Orton and Cassel in a battle for the starting QB spot. In fact, they have both shown what they can do. One of them needs to go, so the remainder of the snaps in OTA's and training camp can go to a young QB (Stanzi or whoever) so that we can develop a legit QB of our own.

Why are they so blind to his talent?

This guy makes a good point when asked about whether the Rams should keep McDaniels:

KEVIN WHEELER (Host of “Sports Open Line” on KMOX)

It all depends on whether their philosophies match up. I seriously doubt that any head coach would judge McDaniels based on a bad first year as offensive coordinator, especially when he has had plenty of success in the past. Nobody rushed to judgment when Steve Spagnuolo went 1-15 his first year as head coach because the deck was stacked against him. I’m sure anyone who is established enough to be a head coach in the NFL will understand that and recognize that the 2011 Rams just weren’t good enough for the offense to function properly.

Take Carolina offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski for example. He was let go from two different offensive coordinator positions in the past – once at the University of Miami and once in Cleveland – and at the end of each tenure the offense was struggling. In each case the reason he was canned ultimately came down to the team having a lack of talented players. Now he’s in Carolina with some talent around and he’s now one of those up-and-coming guys on the verge of being a head coach.

There is no reason to question McDaniels as an offensive coordinator. At least not yet. One bad year on a team that we all know was incredibly flawed isn’t enough for anyone to toss the guy aside and any new head coach will understand that. That coach’s decision to keep McDaniels or let him him go will be based more on philosophy – or the desire to bring in a trusted assistant in his place – rather than on what the Rams did offensively in 2011.

Id like to keep both of them but if anybody goes its gonna be Orton especially if mcdaniels is here.

And as far as Cassell didn't do anything in three years, tell that to the probowl.

YES Tell how the story Mr. L.A. Chieffan how the mighty Cassel got to the probowl again? On the legs of Jamaal Charles and a cancellation from Brady.

F u Scott Pioli. Do you job. Hire the best candidates available. Not just your buddies.

In fairness, that Rams' offense has stunk for the better part of a decade.
