While I don't think we can underestimate the huge impact Moss has on this offense - Bill Belichick made it a point of it week after week this year saying Moss was the MVP of the offense on WEEI - Cassel earned his paycheck.

It's a silly point Whitlock is trying to make - Cassel also has Welker to thank, McD to thank, BB to thank, Brady to thank, etc. Likewise, all those guys can thank all the players around them. Its a team sport. I don't think Cassel will put up the #s in KC that he did here, in fact, I highly doubt it, but he proved he's an NFL starter, and better than 2/3rds of the QBs in the league.

Deus Irae

Yeah, Whitlock's trolling for readers with yet another half-assed article.

Moss has alot to do with cassel being successfull but lets not forget he wasnt the only good receiver in the mix alot of QB's can do a great job with having a solid offense in hand.

I think it's unfair how so many commenters today and yesterday are saying Cassel is overrated, how it's a bad deal for the Chiefs, etc etc.

Do people not realize the kind of money that was thrown around to rookie QB's like Stafford and Sanchez???? These guys are way bigger question marks who cost high first rounders and also more money. At least Cassel has produced in his first ever year as a starter, especially in the second half of the season.

I stopped reading this after the first paragraph. I'm not at all diminishing what Moss has done, especially not as it relates to the impact on my beloved team, but the first few lines were ridiculous. I'll pass on the rest.

This guy has been hating on Cassell since the day the deal went through.

The concept seemed wholly-assed when I saw the headline in the wee hours and passed on giving Witless the traffic.

I do believe Cassel is overrated, he had a very good season last year, but he was playing with one of the best offenses in league history.

I'm not saying he's not got talent, but i just scratch my head with that contract KC gave him. How many one-year wonders have their been like Cassel?


On the other hand Jason Whitlock is a knucklehead. Really, I don't even bother reading his crap anymore.

During more than one game, Cassel was doing a lot more than just "staying out of trouble"... in fact he made big plays in big games - and not relying solely on Moss.

Having said that, obviously playing with RFM is better than playing with 99.9% of the other receivers.
