I have been saying for the last year that Cassel was not a good qb and that Berry was a mistake to take at 5. Boy was I wrong Berry has earned every cent of his pay and so has Cassel.

ok reading this post was a waste of time to read people arguing back and forth. Berry made some rookies mistakes as expected he would. we cant trust cassel to win us a game by throwing but there is always hope of improvement. the play calling was better except that dumb pass play when it was 3 and 1 i or 3 and 2. either way why we threw 15 yards down the field was foolish. run it or call a sure pass play for a small gain and get the 1st down. im sure he could have checked it down and got the first even.
So you're telling me that a team who is facing 3rd and 1 with a backup QB and two solid RBs, one of which blasted us for nearly 300 yards, is gonna throw deep in that situation? My jaw fell to the floor when Wallace didn't hand it off. I can't blame Berry for that one in his 2nd NFL game.
Berry is experiencing growing pains and has shown glimpses of greatness, such as the play where he straight darted right at the RB in the backfield on the toss, right past a lead blocker and got a tackle for a loss. I'm not worried about him, he will get a lot better.
Cassel, on the other hand...
I'm telling you when he got burnt by a TE and shook out of his undies by rb's I was not impressed. In a couple years he will probably be a good SS right now he's average, but even if he was Polamalu good at this stage I still would have picked up Trent Williams or Russell Okung.
As for Cassel, he is a work in progress.
I would like to see more deep balls.
I expect more from him as the wins keep pileing up.
