Heard Kietzmann saying the Chiefs should trade for Blaine Gabbert (no, I'm serious). One emailer just suggested the same (/pulls trigger)



I for one, want NO part of Blazed Garbage.

I can't say I'd want no part, he could probably give casshole and brady queff a decent run for their money. BUT I wouldn't advocate a trade for him.

I hope they address it in the draft but you can't manufacture a franchise QB out of thin air. The organization made it clear that Cassel isn't the golden boy by pursuing Manning. It's a matter of time and opportunity until Matt is out of the picture. That doesn't make Pioli a shitty GM.

The moment he passes on a legit QB shot to stick with Cassel or any other "safe" option, I'll agree, but I don't know what else he could have done. (Again, other than sign a former back-up that looked good with an elite offense)

The three games Orton played made it painfully obvious what needed to be done. The very least, very least, Orton should have been retained.

I'd take Gabbert in a hearbeat.


FFS, look what he had to deal with last year. No training camp, no weapons besides MJD.

I'd take him off their hands, sit him behind Cassel for a year if you ahve too.

What's Todd Reesing up to?

I am not sure how you can say that. He indicated he did, but that he wasn't really wanted. He knew after his last game that they were not going to offer him a contract.

Can't wait to see the opponents stack the box again this year and dare Casshole to beat them with his arm. Even with Charles healthy and Hillis in the mix, I'm not sure how they can get through 9 defensive players at the line. If Casshole can't complete a 10 yard pass again this season, I don't see any different outcome from last year when Casshole played

haha! I always think that it's funny when someone says this. I don't remember, how many guys backed out of the probowl before Cassel was invited. lol

They said this in 2010 and Charles went for 6 yards a carry. You miss a tackle doing that and he's gone.

At this point, what is Steve DeBerg up to? He threw downfield with an f-ing steel pin sticking out of his pinkie finger, and our current qb couldn't hit the broad side of a barn from 10 yards out on a perfectly clear day with a tail wind.

Puck Fioli. Seriously.

I think it was either 14 or 15 QBs who backed out, I'm not sure - my memory is a little fuzzy thinking about anything "good" for Casshole.

Cassel is holding the team back. He and Routt will kill them this year. I can see losing Carr IF it helps land Manning, but not for the sole purpose of saving cap room...:shake:
