When you have been watching Matt Cassel, Tyler Palko, Brady Quinn, Brodie Croyle and Damon Huard at QB for your team for the last 7 years, any reasonably competent QB can look like the second coming of Joe Montana. Shit, people went nuts for Kyle Orton.
It doesn't mean that he is "the Answer"; just that he is better than terrible. |

In yards per play, Chiefs were #27 on offense last year, and #27 on defense. This defense sucked just as bad as the offense. How much was Crennel? That's the big question. Talk of the Chiefs' D being elite is crazy, though...

I don't think they were elite, but I do think that in addition to poor coaching, there's some truth to the idea that an offense that couldn't convert 3rd downs or otherwise sustain drives contributed to poor defense.

BTW, so did the fact that they lined up with only one decent CB and a questionable group of safeties.

If you put 2010 Cassel on the 2011 and 2012 Niner teams, my guess is he'd have success similar to that of Alex ****ing Smith.

profane adjectives make hypotheticals all the more compelling.

I hope you're right, and I hope my expectations are far exceeded. I'm certainly not saying any of this because I want to be able to come back in four years and say "see! I told you so!". It's just what I think of him...

Anyone who thinks we're winning 4 or 5 games next year really has no idea what they're watching every Sunday. It was pretty clear last year that the team had given up on the QB, and the leadership in general. They'll be over .500 this year. I'd bet on it.
