It's easy, and only takes a few moments.he almost threw an INT right before the Moss TD, it was a bad throw and hit the defender right in the chest but he dropped it. I thought to myself jeez we got away with one there.
Cassel played well but OConnell can play better imo. And remember we were playing KC and Cassel didnt exactly light it up. Id hate to see what he does against the Chargers, OConnell would give us a fighting chance against the good teams.
Does anyone here REALLY believe we would even have a winning record with Cassel?
I don't. We bearly beat the Chiefs today guys. I love the Pats as much as anyone but lets get real.

AND? Name a QB who has made 0 bad throws and 0 bad decisions...
Not for nothing but your opinion on the matter is absolutely worthless. You believe that a rookie can perform better than a guy in the system for 4 years. You believe this based on what he did against 3rd and 4th stringers, a lot of whom are not playing for any team right now? And just forget about the system and experience in it, that means NOTHING. Read and react? changing routes? what the hell is that, who cares.
And remember KC is an extremely young team and you have no idea how good/bad they wlil be this year. And remember Matt was not expecting to play and was thrown into the fire. And remember the O-Line didn't exactly play lights out. And remember HE PLAYED AS WELL AS YOU COULD EVEN HOPE a backup qb would play under the circumstances. And remember you have no idea what the hell you are talking about.
The friggin audacity of people to claim that a rookie... ah nevermind, I just have to deal with another year in lala fairy tale land.

Rookie QBs start in the NFL just like any other position if its needed. Everyone was calling for Cassel to get cut just a few weeks ago and now everyone is defending him tooth and nail! loool Cassel played like crap all preseason WITH the starters and couldnt muster more than 1 TD against the worst team in the league. Yes OConnel would play better, hes a much better scrambler and his ability to buy time in the pocket is second to none. He would have put up more than 1 TD against the friggen Chiefs.

First round QBs start in the NFL, if Oconnell was that good he would have been a first rounder... RIGHT?
Show me one thread where I personally ever called for them to cut Cassel? I understand how useless preseason is when it comes to a fans perspective and judging players.
How did Brady play in the 2001 preaseason?
You are f'ing delusional. Oconnell's ability to buy time in the pocket is 2nd to none? Are you his brother, father, mother?? What the hell are you on, seriously? Stop posting with your heart. He's a rookie project with quick feet. Do you honestly think Oconnell would have picked up the same read that Moss picked up when he CHANGED his called route on the play that got the patriots out of the endzone?
The coaches know more than you or I ever will, and they have put Cassel as the backup and they believe in him. Just as they believed in Brady in 2001 when you didn't have much a clue of who he was.
O'Connell is waaaaaay better than Cassel, we played the Cheifs and barely won. O'Connell would be making this offense score more, we've seen it in the preseason.
I pray to god that Brady hasnt torn a ligament.
Sometimes I wonder if some posters here actually watch the games...
If Cassel is so good then why the heck did they draft OConnell in the friggen 3RD ROUND??? Answer me that smartass. Especially when we have TOM BRADY -and- the supposedly good "Cassel".
OConnell is a better player you can tell just by watching them play. Cassel is only in there because HE HAS MORE EXPERIENCE knowing the pats system. That doesnt mean HE WILL PLAY WELL just because he knows more. Cassel has been here for multiple years and hasnt played well yet, oh wait i forgot the 1 TD performance against the mighty Cheifs lool.
You're a neanderthal Cassel aint taking us nowhere and O'Connel would take us farther.
