Damn Matt Cassel

Welcome to another in my series of "Damn" posts. I would, as usual, like to warn the readers that this post uses excessivley the word damn and also mentions analogies. Big, scary, relevant, analogies. Reader beware.
Damn Matt Cassel for risking his neck and career every Sunday to play QB
for the Kansas City Chiefs, of which, I am a fan.
Damn Matt Cassel for being classy and not publicly whining and moaning about the atrocious play of the lineman being paid millions of dollars to give him more than 1.5 seconds to throw the ball.
Damn Matt Cassel for holding on to the ball too long…which on most of his drop backs, even those in the shotgun, is 1.5 seconds.
Damn Matt Cassel for getting rid of the ball to his outlet receivers after a complete and total breakdown in protection has occurred at the offensive line the moment he has gotten the ball.
Damn Matt Cassel for not throwing down field even through most of the time his receivers are only 5 yards from the line of scrimmage when he needs to get rid of the ball.
Damn Matt Cassel for not "stepping up in the pocket enough" like he did in the Seattle game in preseason when he nearly got his leg ripped off.
Damn Matt Cassel for making a couple of mistakes in the Raiders game and then leading us on a go-ahead scoring drive late in the 4th quarter to give the team a chance to win. Damn also his pinpoint touchdown pass on that drive.
Damn Matt Cassel for not sprouting wings and learning to fly so that he can just hover above the attacking defense until his receivers are able to get open.
Damn Matt Cassel for running all those stupid pass plays in the red zone, even though he didn’t call them but it is his job to run them. Also, damn him for converting those red zone opportunities into touchdowns. Asshole.
Damn Matt Cassel for making the most of his opportunity in New England and coming to Kansas City for a lot of money. What a selfish ass. If he was playing for Brodie Croyle money he would be good.
Damn Matt Cassel for not being Brodie Croyle. Stupid Cassel and his 11 NFL wins. We Chief fans like our QB’s winless (Croyle) or woefully overrated and inaccurate (Thigpen). Further more we don’t want a QB who has proven he can win with a good team. We want one who has never won an NFL game with any team. Cause he threw a couple of TD passes in the Baltimore game.
Damn Matt Cassel for throwing 5 TD’s in 3 regular season games as a Chief! We want Croyle who has thrown 8 TD’s in the 14 games he has entered as a Chief…in 3 years. Plus Baltimore.
Damn Matt Cassel for not turning around the franchise all by himself in a matter of 3 games.
Damn Cassel for having to throw screen passes because teams know they can blitz and get right to him. Further more, damn Cassel for not running over and showing the other wide receivers how to block on a screen pass.
Damn Matt Cassel for not taking a 45 step drop when he damn well knows he needs to.
Damn Matt Cassel for not run blocking…even though he could probably do a better job of it than Mike Cox and Rudy Newswinger.
Damn Matt Cassel for making a couple of mistakes on the rare occasion he has enough time to even throw the ball more than 5 yards down field. Damn him because we know that if he completes a couple of those misplaced passes, that all of the sudden the Chiefs will be the 2007 Patriots on offense. If he just doesn’t under throw Engram, that one time, (even though it was probably only the 3rd time Engram has been open all season and that Cassel was so shocked he didn’t know what to do) all the Chiefs offensive problems would be solved. The line will suddenly know how to pass protect and run block. Teams will become terrified of Engrams blazing speed and back off on the blitz. Larry Johnson will run for 200 yards every game. It should have been Croyle throwing that ball to Engram. If it was Croyle we know damn well it wouldn’t have been under thrown. It would have been over thrown. And that’s the way we like it.
Damn Matt Cassel for using an analogy. Oh wait, that was Patrick. Stupid analogies make our heads hurt.
Damn Matt Cassel. Damn him to hell with that Todd Haley guy. We want miracles here in Kansas City and we want them now.

Four games into the season….
He’s played three games and thrown five touchdown passes, which means he is on pace for over 25 touchdown passes. See? Spreading stats of four games over a full season means squat.

Damn you to hell for having a sense of humor about things when we’re 0-4. We chief fans like to be pissed off all the time and we want a nice easy scapegoat or two to blame. Damn you for ruining it for us.

Cassel really wasn't very good yesterday.
I am still hopeful he will be a great QB but yesterday, even when he had time and had a receiver open, he made some pretty horrible throws.
by Vince D on Oct 5, 2009 3:35 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I agree
he certainly has some work to do. He is a young QB and is low on experience. It really sucks that he isn’t able to get much experience playing behind this line.
I’ll tell you what though, if he can survive this without getting killed and we manage to win a few games, he’ll be better for it.
After this year Cassel will never be scared of a blitz again….if he lives.

Great post.
Cassel does need to get better but honestly with time I think he will. Just like last season he started slow as the offense started to develop and he’s in the same boat as he was last year.

Thats what I said :)
If you watch his progression in that offense its pretty simillar to what he’s going through now except he will have to take his game to another level because he’s now the key cog that turns the wheels.

Say what you want, but at least last year the games were more competitive with “woefully overrated and inaccurate Thigpen”. The offense (and Cassel) did NOTHING until the Giants were up big and put in the backups.
When you have a $60 million contract it comes with the territory.

The thing about the Arrowspread
was that it was alast resort. It was a hail mary by Herm Edwards. I mean think about it. Herm Edwards ran a spread ofense. HERM EDWARDS. Mr. runt he ball and play good D ran a spread. That goes against everything he believed in as a football coach. He knew his job was on the line and he knew his team was not capable of running a pro style offense and most certainly, the only QB he had left, Thigpen, wasn’t capable of running the offense the way he wanted.
Haley isn’t anywhere near that point yet. He is tryign to establish how the Chiefs will play football going forward. It isn’t hail mary time. Now the team MUST show improvement as the year goes on. It simply must. If the team looks as bad in game 16 as it does right now I will agree with you all that Haley is not the man for the job. at this point, however, I am giving him and Cassel time to develop this team. It has been 4 games against superior D’s. Some of the best in the NFL. Give it a littl emore time.

CASSEL SUCKS
WEAK ARM NO VISION HAPPY FEET SACK MASTER
I dont know what game you watched yesterday but our O-LINE played much better Cassel had more than the expected amount of time on most plays LJ was the bright spot as the O-Line was able to give enough.
Terrible on his timing was Cassel Terrible on his accuracy was Cassel and THREE of the five sacks CLEARLY CASSELS fault not the O-Line as Cassel tucked and crumbled twice with no one around him.
by kcchiefstd on Oct 5, 2009 3:48 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
yeah, that second touchdown he threw to Engram was totally a sign of a weak QB
I mean, keeping his eyes in the end zone when he’s under heavy pressure and even being able to elude the pressure. And that soft throw he made? What was that? Seriously. That guys sucks. And our receivers shouldn’t have to get open or run their routes correctly or anything. If Matt was a good QB, he would find a way to get the ball to them no matter what, be it via teleportation or even ground mail. And you’re totally right about our O-Line. I mean, they played pretty well for almost ONE WHOLE possession. They didn’t even come close to doing that last week.

I still need to rewatch the Giants game
but I timed out a few of his drives in Phili and it was ridiculous. On one hand off in the Phili game, as soon as LJ got the ball in his hands there were two Phili defenders standing on either side of him. It is insanity.

I did think O'Callahan looked a little better than Ike
again I want to review before going on the record about that. If the line did indeed play a little better yesterday and against the Giants I am pleased. I feel like if given time, Cassel will start to perform.
You are right about Bowe and Wade. I think it hurt with Bowe not being 100%. I personally would like to see more 3 WR sets with Bowe, Wade and Bradley. I think we are better off with those guys than with Engram.

Yet, it just might have been the type of defense they run. I thought the right side was better overall. The middle of the line (Niswanger) was an open door many times.

They're capitalizing on other teams' mistakes...
… and not making a whole helluva lotta mistakes of their own. I didn’t watch this last game, but a colleague of mine attending the same conference is a Denver fan and skipped the early bird session Sunday to watch the Broncos. He tells me they sent 4 ‘most all day. I tend to trust his opinion, because he didn’t hesitate to say “Mostly 4” when I asked “So they sent 5 all day…?” So he prob’ly got it right, because he knew what I meant.
I’m REALLY hoping that we’re seeing the beginnings of a long rivalry between these two ’09 rookie coaches.

free agency
yeah, it makes me wonder if they’ve heard of this new fangled free agency system. Someone was going to pay him some good money after he performed well in NE. While NE has plenty of talent they aren’t perfect. The offense doesn’t have a good running game and the passing game only works if the QB is good. So NE could have easily had a losing record last year if Cassel hadn’t done well.

Unable to find a team Larry had taken a job in New Orleans as a pimp so he could slap hookers around. With the help of a Witch Doctor whom Pioli and Haley claim is Larry’s new “agent,” the duo convinces Johnson to sign a one year contract worth 60 gazillion, bazillion dollars. The contract is of course not for any amount of money but Larry, not being able to read, doesn’t know that. He signs the contract, which simply reads;

You do realize none of that makes any sense. What does that parody post have to do with anything?
Wait? Are you defending Larry? Are you upset because I made fun of LARRY?
Pft!

I love Larry.
And don’t like it when people insult his intelligence.

DID YOU WATCH THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Matt Cassell had bradley wide open,threw a pass that would make Jamarcus russell proud, miissed lawrence wide open he lost that game and the raiders game with poor play and bad decisions

Wait....
Did he have Lawrence or Bradley open? Cause Lawrence didn’t play.
And you’re right. He lost that game…not the defense by being unable to cover Steve Smith (nobody talking about how Eli threw for almost 300 yards?).
Teams lose games. Not players.

I love this post. I was about to bash you for not having faith in Cassel’s growth and development in a different offense with a terrible terrible O-Line. Personally, 2 INT with the line with have through 3 games is really pretty good. 5 TDs on top of that is icing. He’s got a good completion percentage and I feel like he’s starting to show some promise…even the O-Line a bit too.

love it
was totally about to say what are you doing turning on cassel then I read the post.
I have faith in cassel, and you know what he did block, in the wildcat, he was out as a WR, and he pushed back that Cb :)

I Have to say
This bum from New England is not living up to 60 milion pay check, CAssel, who the fuck are you? I don t know what is worst after watch the vikings monday night. We trade Jared Allen straight up for GLEN FUCKING DORSEY. Man it hurts being a fan in kansas city. So glad the tigers are good. GO MIZZOU.

Matt Cassel
He has played poor and needs to step up his game. Many passes were behind his intended receiver in the Giants game. He will improve with more reps but looks pretty ugly right now. He is too happy feet in the pocket and holds the ball too long before release. Just my two cents worth.

This team being bad isnt because of Cassel and Haley.

I wouldn't go that far
I still say the play calling is suspect.
Haley needs to open that shit up this week vs Dallas.

Talent
plays a part in playcalling. The only playcalling thats been bad is the RB draw out of shotgun 10x a game. That shits gotta stop
Other than that, what can we do? Run the ball. get stuffed. hope we get a decent gain every now and then. Hope Matt Cassel can get a 3 step drop n get the ball out without getting hit.
How do you expect us to be able to call the plays we want when our OL doesnt give the offense a chance to complete a play?

COME ON PEOPLE!
This is another great post by PA! Let’s talk reality! The only game we expected to win out of the first 4 games was the Raiders, that is the stinger. If we had won that game all of this negative talk would not exist in my mind. More reality…Cassel hurt his knee, missed reps and a new offense was being installed all one week or so before the start of the season. Every team that took this course of action (Bucs, Chiefs, Bills) all have a losing record right now. More reality, we do not have continuity between receivers, the O-line or anywhere on offense. All you naysayers need to be PATIENT, hell you gave Herm 3 years and now 4 games you want Cassel and Haley’s head. I like Haley’s mentality and I believe he will be a good coach. He has shown that he accepts responsibility, is a quick learner and makes changes. I see a sharp contrast between his demeanor in games 1-2 compared to 3-4 as an example. He has been far from perfect but he has shown the ability to make improvements and not be afraid to take risks. I like those characteristics. Another reality check….THIS TEAM WAS HORRIBLE! We are still not good, but I see improvement and this large ship heading in the wrong direction takes time to turn around especially with how much we are having to throw overboard. Last dose of reality…$63 million to Cassel was a no-brianer! Pioli had foresight to know where he would be next year with an unsigned Cassel. That is a no-cap year, Top Tier QB’s making $90 to $100 million a year and Payton hadn’t even signed his deal. Cassel is performing like a Tier II QB and is paid accordingly. I see Cassel being a Tier I QB in the next 3 years with more talent at our skilled positions and a better O-line and defense.

trent green
was horrible his first season as a chief too 6-10 ring a bell. so honestly how many of you ripping on cassel have a trent green jersey in your closet

Excellent Point!
I just ordered my Matt Cassel jersey. I did not order a Croyle jersey. These unreasonable expectations are bothersome to say the least. People will be eating their words.

Brodie croyle
he has better legs and if he gets injured we still have cassel win win situation and he can throw to tony gonzalez all day and jared allen can sack the qb oh wait there not on the team anymore thats why we suck so bad we would be 2-2 right now if we still had them damn us getting rid of good players congrats the chiefs have now become the royals of football

Damn this Schtick.
I like Cassel too, but this isn’t funny to someone with over a 5th grade education. Those 10% of us are not amused.

Fine. Why don’t you leave the rest of the posters here out of it?
You are sure to win people over by insulting 90% of the board by claiming that they have less than a 5th grade education.
I’d go on but really, you don’t seem to be worth it.

So...
how many people here on AP have a highschool diploma or GED? Andddd how many of you thought it was funny?
I’m jus sayin. I know I have my diploma..which signifies more than a 5th grade education..and found it pretty funny.
To put it nicely, remove the “Schtick” from you know where and get a sense of humor. If youre not amused, then click the back button and dont leave a comment ripping the poster and the “90%” of us that “dont have more than a 5th grade education” who found it funny.

5 Yards from the line of scrimage.
“Damn Matt Cassel for not throwing down field even through most of the time his receivers are only 5 yards from the line of scrimmage when he needs to get rid of the ball.”
Heck, I’d settle for that, if it was five yards in front of the line of scrimage instead of behind it. I lost count early on of how receptions started behind the line. Drove me absolutely nuts.
