Stanford Routt On Chiefs: 'I Don't See Why We Can't Win'

Photo

Stanford Routt has spoken.

The newest member of the Kansas City Chiefs spoke with ESPN's Josina Anderson after he agreed to a deal with the KC Chiefs on Monday. Routt was a 2005 draft pick and has spent his entire seven-year career in the AFC West with the Oakland Raiders.

Star-divide

"I trust the Kansas City Chiefs to lead us in the right direction. It helps that I'll be playing in the AFC West going on eight years now, so I think that will be a plus. I've always had a lot of respect for Romeo Crennel with his defensive expertise, so the sky is the limit for us. When you look at that, and combine it with the pieces they have on offense, I don't see why we can't win."

Kansas City "seemed like the right fit," he said.

When he visited the Buffalo Bills last week, he said in a media session that he just wanted to go someplace where he could win because, with the Raiders, he hasn't done a lot of winning. Good to know he believes in the Chiefs future.

Check out the full quotes here. And here's what GM Scott Pioli said about the Routt signing and how it affects Brandon Carr.

I'm not ranting at all. I understand Matt Cassel is not a franchise QB.

But I also understand that under the right circumstances we CAN win with Matt Cassel. I think the QB position does need to be upgraded, but I don’t think Matt Cassel is dog shit either. For a guy who “provokes thinking” you sure don’t seem to think logically.

the last time was actually the Buccanneers..

Ryan Succop will be the kicker for the AFC in the 2011 Pro Bowl

by PVChiefsfan on Feb 21, 2012 12:00 PM CST up reply actions  

The last two quarterbacks to play in the Super Bowl were Eli Manning and Tom Brady.

The year before that was Aaron Rodgers and Ben Roethlisberger.

The year before that was Drew Brees and Peyton Manning.

The year before that was Ben Roethlisberger and Kurt Warner.

The year before that was Eli Manning and Tom Brady.

The year before that was Peyton Manning and Rex Grossman.

Hey, look at that! We had to go back 6 years, but we finally found a non-elite quarterback who made it to the Super Bowl!

I mean sure, despite being an interception machine, Grossman was capable of playing for stretches at a level higher anything Matt Cassel is capable of. And sure, that was pre Pollard blowing out Brady’s knee, pre concussion mania, pre new defenseless receiver rules, and a host of other things that have increased the importance of the passing game. And sure, he lost.

But the point is, it’s totally possible to at least almost make it to the Super Bowl, and maybe even possible to make it lose! All we need to do is follow a really dated model for winning from a different era in the NFL that hasn’t resulted in a Super Bowl champion since Brad Johnson! Huzzah!

"[Jamaal Charles] probably fights crime in his spare time while inhaling carbon emissions, exhaling oxygen, and crapping oil. That’s how awesome he is. Not just good for the Chiefs, but America."

That Buffalo game was a mess. Cassel sucked the entire game, and I cant believe Chiefs almost tied Buffalo in that season. He got saved by both eric berry and ryan succop.

The only legitimate comeback I give Cassel is the colts, and that was a game the Chiefs should have won easily.

That’s odd, you referenced the Dallas game from 09 earlier. Could’ve sworn Dallas won that game.

I’m glad wins and losses are the only way to judge players. We better dump the roster and start over then, right?

So here’s your logic.

In the Buffalo game we ignore 5 quarters of terrible play where the QB throws for 110 total yards because his final drive (45 yards in passes) ended with a FG that won the game.

At the same time, we ignore the final two drives of the Dallas game (both 3 and outs) and another dazzling 180 yard/five quarter passing performance outside of a single drive because that one good possesion tied the game

The only “logic” I see is that you’re able to pick a single drive out of both games and attribute the win and the almost-win to Cassel.

And given that all this nonsense in this thread started with a gif of ONE PLAY that lost us a game

Cassel doesn't lose games or win games

the Chiefs do

And until the Chiefs find someone that gives them a better chance to win games than Matt Cassel does he will remain our starting QB.

Also

They are always LOOKING for the QB who will give us a better chance to win games than Cassel does, but sacrificing OTHER things to get that QB may actually harm our chances to win more games.

It’s a tricky balancing act, I am sure. If it weren’t, all of us asshats would be general managers.

You talk about us "winning" with Matt Cassel.

Well he can hand it off to Jamaal Charles and lob it to Dwayne Bowe against losing teams all season long, but then when it come to playoff time and he has to play a real team he throws 3 picks and our only score is Charles busting a big one.

He can’t hang against playoff teams, and that’s what matter.

When you look at that, and combine it with the pieces they have on offense, I don’t see why we can’t win.”

The only “they” he used was referring to the offense. Which is a unit he won’t be playing on.

There is, at best, a 0.00000000000000000000000000000001% chance that Manning gets traded.

He’s getting cut. The next most likely scenario after that (which isn’t even remotely likely) is that he restructures his deal and stays with the Colts while they groom Luck. For all intents and purposes, there is zero chance that he restructures his contract so the Colts can deal him.

Yeah, in that case he wouldn't need to "restructure his contract" because he wouldn't have one after being cut.

Any structuring done on his next contract with a new team would be the first structuring.
