but I think we just disagree on some issues and that’s fine. I know you can’t just find an elite quarterback but you can make strides to attempt to. The offensive line which isn’t good would not stop me from trying to find that quarterback as an elite quarterback makes bad offensive lines look good. Yes I’d prefer they improve the offensive line as well and I think they could.

As far as interest rates I’m not implying that parking should be free for everyone but I’m saying right now when it’s obviously difficult for them to sell season tickets they should offer more benefits. Once the team is back to where we’ve been before when tickets are much harder to get they obviously wouldn’t need to offer those kinds of deals. However, with the current state it is over the top financially irresponsible to buy season tickets.

RGIII or any other reasonable option (like letting Orton compete for the job in open competition) then we fans would be enthusiatic about the future, but when it seems obvious that they hired Crennel (a very nice guy, good coach, but it appears, a company “yes” man) and he comes out touting the Cassel credentials ( probably as fed to him by Pioli) then it is obvious to most fans that this team is not committed to winning. Then, when Fisher, indicates that KC is not committed to winning it is pretty much confirmed and then backed up by Fisher who goes to a team precisely because they do have a potential franchise QB, it all becomes pretty clear. The Chief’s think the fans are just sheep that they can pull along over the edge with this BS, but they are wrong again. At least not all of us.

the College Championship game. What did Cassel do? Even though Flynn has only gotten into 2 games so far as a pro, look at his stats. Yes, I’d take Flynn anyday over Cassel. Flynn will be an upper level QB over the next few years and he’s been learning behind Rogers.

Regarding Fisher, he’ll be a better coach (his record 147-126, one SB) over the next few years vs. Crennel (24-40) and he’s younger and I respect his opinion. He was not interested in coming to the Chief’s because he could see that they were not committed to winning. But, I will support Crennel and hope he does well. However, I’ll bet that two years from right now, the Rams (2-14 now) end their season with a better record than the Chief’s (7-9 now).

Cassel played well against weak teams, was made to look like the bad QB he is against the good teams. And, if Pioli does go out and get a franchise level QB, I’ll take it all back but as of right now I don’t see it and I don’t see anything that indicates that he’s even giving Orton an opportunity to compete or why wouldn’t he at least say so.

We really don’t know what the truth is about Haley. I don’t dismiss the fact that Haley stood his ground and wanted some things done that Pioli would not support. I don’t think that Haley did everything right but he sure was not given a decent backup until “after” Cassel went down and if the truth was known, there might be a lot of other problems that we don’t know about and I doubt that they were all Haley’s fault.

And the final point: Cassel doesn’t look “pretty” good. Orton came in without having much time to get to know this team and looked much better and more aggressive than Cassel. Most knowledgable fans have noticed this right from the beginning. One pole on JSS show the fans favor Orton 77% to Cassel at 18%. Fans can see if a QB is checking down, how he’s handling pressure, how he throws a long pass, how he plays playaction, how he handles a screen and in all those areas, Orton was much better than Cassel. Like Romeo, Cassel is a great guy, just not a great QB and SB teams need a great or way above average QB to be “consistant.”
