ESPN Countdown guys on Matt Cassel
 
The guys on ESPN talked about Patriots quarterback Matt Cassel today, and whether or not he deserves a vote of confidence:Cris Carter: “I don’t know why he’d get a vote of confidence because he hasn’t done anything to warrant it. Whose fault is it? – New England, they blew it. On a 53-man roster the [...]

Chris Carter is a MOron.

Hey Chris, who did Dallas have to back up Tony Romo? Big win over the Rams today. :rolleyes: Cretin!

It is absurd that we cannot establish a run game and take the pressure off of Cassel. With this "*great" line and stable of backs we should be able to change the identity of this team in order to help Cassel.

* I have doubted this line. The change to zone blocking has had inconsistent results, to say the least.

the line isn't that good. one of our few hopes is neal comes back and plays well. our center has gotten manhandled.

I think we have two major areas where we need to improve:

O-line so we can run consistently

and

pass rush


after those two the 2ndary.

I see Carter's point, but as a coach you do Nothing but support your QB even if you have to make stuff up.

If Tom Jackson is FOR Cassel I might have to rethink my position.

I dont know why you guys are getting on Carter. He has the right to his opinion either way. I also think that if you guys believe Cassel has been better than average you are only fooling yourselves. Cassel is bad. Maybe it is because he hasnt played, but this is the nfl. this is the patriots. we are winners. He has to step up. He hasnt played well, clearly. You cant use the excuse that he hasnt played since HS, he is on an NFL team and starting. Nobody is saying he has to be great, but he has to be average, or we will continue to stink.

Question: What is the Patriots record?

Compare it to 'average'.
