I know, it's something of a rehash, but a few interesting references to the Chief's ex-Pats.
Pressure Point: Cassel must improve.
Pressure Point: Cassel must improve.
Extremely valuable or giving him away for nothing -- depends on your point of view. I remember all those threads.When Scott Pioli took over the Kansas City Chiefs, he promptly gave up an early second-round pick -- an extremely valuable selection
Really? I thought he has prototypical QB size: tall, solidly built, strong arm, quick on his feet. They want him to be fat and slow like Leftwich?While Cassel isn't an overwhelming physical specimen
Through all the years before his untimely promotion, that was the biggest knock on him. Even in 2008, early on there were a few games where he got knocked around, running into his OLinemen, tripping on their feet, deer in the headlights. But then he got better and better. Most QBs look like crap when their OLine can't slow down the rush. Even Paymeaton.While he was often under siege behind a poor line, Cassel didn't show the timing and ability to unload the football on time
There are worse problems than Mankins disputing his contract.Still, right tackle is a problem area; it looks like Ryan O'Callaghan will return despite his ineffectiveness.
