Re: Offical 2010 NFL Season Thread
BTW, Cassel posted a 69.9 QB rating last year. In 2007, the only time Croyle got any significant time behind center, he posted a 69.9. Judging a QB by his rating is kind of like judging a pitcher by wins and losses, but if Croyle set the Chiefs back by costing them a pick in the middle of the third round and like $2 million, how screwed are they by spending a near-first round pick and $60 million on someone who has given them an identical performance?

Especially hurts to see that Laurinitis, Maualuga and Jarius Byrd would have been right there for the taking at 34.

Re: Offical 2010 NFL Season Thread
Keep in mind what sort of targets Cassel had for most of the season. Dwayne Bowe missed some games because of his own stupidity when a masking agent turned up in a drug test. Until Chambers came aboard, Bowe was the only WR who even remotely concerned opposing defenses.
And, on top of that, the '09 Chiefs junked their offense at the end of August and started from square one as the regular season started.
Cassel also spent too much time running for his life in '09. He looked pretty good in New England surrounded by people who actually belong in the NFL.
The offensive line is better, Bowe may have finally grown up, Chambers is a respectable #2 WR. McCluster and Charles are scoring threats any time they touch the football.

Favre looking like he should have retired.

I hope the Cardinals beatdown today means little about the Rams.

True. It's also possible that the Rams might have a better record than the Vikings after today.

Yeah, that other team had nothing to do with it at all. I thought two of the picks by Allen were great plays. The one at the end zone was a bad pass, but the guy definitely wasn't open.Cronos69 wrote:That's putting it mildly. He was awful today.cardslesson101 wrote:Sloppy game by Favre.
