Chiefs QB Matt Cassel Struggles During Scrimmage

Besides his off the field issues he's not doing anything different than he was before we lost our O line.

 

Supposedly Haley claimed if LJ doesn't block then he won't play. We'll see soon enough I suppose. I don't think Kolby Smith or Jamal Charles can stay healthy enough to carry load, LJ is going to have to be the horse.

 

I still dont see how you would want cassel over cutler...silly denver

 

Hey, whatever Denver does to screw themselves up is all good with me.

 

lol...everyone is so confident that Denver is going to be so bad...It's going to be funny when they finish ahead of KC and Oakland...One thing that Denver will be able to do is move the football with alot of capable running backs, a top tier TE in my opinion, Marshall (he'll be healthy IMO) and Eddie Royal. They will manage the game and keep opposing teams defense on the field. Cassel would have been really good in Denver in a system he is very familiar with and quality WR's, now Orton will have a chance to show people he can play with real receivers (something he never had in Chicago). And all he will have to do is manage the game.

 

You're crazy if you think Orton is going to be good and unless Knowshon is a future pro bowler, they have a backfield full of "guys". Marshall and Royal are great but Marshall doesn't even want to be there. Have you forgotten how bad their defense was last year? I don't exactly think the Chiefs are going to challenge for the division title but as it stands right now I think we have a shot to win 4 games.....two over the Donkeys and two over the Raiders.

 

One problem with Denver though Harvs is the defense, not to mention the QB is worse than in the past. Not saying that Denver is going to be worse than Oakland and KC, but they're not as good as last year...

 

apperantly you didnt watch 2 many Donkey games Harvs lol the games that the donks did win last year was because of their Pro-Bowl caliber QB. As Cutler went, so did da donks. and there is no reason 2 believe anything yet that McNivifcent has done yet will help this team. So far all McDoffis is good at is hiding in his newly aquired big boy pants.

 

I will wait to say anything about Cassel struggling. All I can say is think the worst Chiefs fans, that way you will be less dissappointed.

 

Not just that scrimmage, I never thought he was good in New England. I see him as a career back up nothing more. IMO

 

Cutler was number 2 in the league in picks, and as far as protection goes he had the least amount of sacks in the league per pass attempts so he was very well protected, Orton has never had anybody to throw the ball to. Their Defense was terrible but I believe Denver will try to move the ball and keep their defense off the field as much as possible. Cassel will be a good QB, but KC still has as many questions as anyone. I don't think it's that unrealistic for both KC and Oakland to finish below Denver. The Chiefs will be a good team, but not necessarily this year.

 

New Team, New System, New Leaders, New Players. when hasnt something like struggle dont happen when everything is new. im sure it will be afew games b4 everything starts to look anything like promising.

 

Well said.

 

i hope cassel does good so the chiefs do good but i still dont like him.

 

This was like 2 years ago, I think it's time to forget about it. Not to mention, Cassel didn't even have anything to do with it.

 

Exactly.

 

I believe in Matt Cassel.

 

Do you believe in Thigpen?

 

haha, no
