Postive thoughts about the game ONLY

[matthewschiefs]

I can't believe that there is so much negativity on here after a game that the Chiefs WON. So here post any good thoughts from the game.

1. The Defense. They won the game plane and simple

2. I will say it Cassel in the 2nd half. He may not have been perfect in the 2nd half but he made some throws that helped the chiefs get 1st downs. And the game wining field goal.

3. tony Moekie (if thats how you spell it lol) He had a nice game and made some nice catches.

Postive thought only. GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The defense did look good.. but they did have their moments where they didn't look that good. I wish we could have had more than one sack, but too we have to remember that they have a good o-line, or at least one that is better than ours.

Cassel could have played better, their secondary isn't good at all. Had he thrown it down the field (I'm talking more than 20 yards) a few more times, we probably would of had more points.

Moeaki has been playing well, but you gotta admit it's pretty embarrassing when your leading receiver has less than 100 yards in 2 games, and is the only player with a receiving TD. He's basically what Sean Ryan was to us early in the season last year. Hopefully Moeaki will stay consistent though and healthy and not slack off like Ryan did.

My positives:
1. 2-0
2. Defense only gave up 73 yds and longest run was 12 yds
3. Got another sack and several pressures
4. Cassell didnt get killed (dont know if thats a positive)
5. Cassell moved the ball 2nd half to give D a rest.
6. 3 penalties for like 40yds(but 2 were almost devastating)
7. special teams held off cribbs
8. our kickers are awesome..
9. Moeaki is becoming a play maker
10. bowe made some nice grabs

I'll second that

Just 55 yards given up by the Defense in the 2nd half -- and Berry was where he was supposed to be on all plays in the 2nd half.

Definitely hard to say. As a Christian I have a hard time wishing any kind of harm on anybody, but Cassel sure does make it hard sometimes. (Not serious harm, just a Josh Freeman like injury that keeps him out long enough to give Brody a shot :P)

I'm very impressed with the improvement in the defense. The offensive line is doing a much better job so far on pass protection. This last years draft has really helped the team.

He was given 9 and he lost every game!

All, but 1 of those starts happened under the Herm Edwards era. You can hardly use that as a measuring stick of his ability. In my opinion Brodie is clearly the better QB. He has the better arm, the quicker release, and is more mobile in the pocket. Everyone here is quick to defend Cassel, but I don't understand why. Can anyone here name me 1 positive thing Cassel does on the field? He lacks arm strength, his decision making is very questionable, he holds onto the ball for too long, his footwork could be better, he has a high tendency to always look for the check down passes, and on top of all of that he's overpaid. People on here are saying your not a real fan if you criticize Cassel, I think it's the other way around. Cassel is holding our team back right now.

We have one of the best, if not the best special teams game in the league, we have a defense that's playing lights out right now and only going to get better, we have one of the best running games you could ask for. We have it all right now with the exception of decent QB. I'm not saying Brodie Croyle is going to be the next Tom Brady, but I certainly think he gives us a better chance to win games than Matt Cassel. Sure we may be 2-0 right now, but we won those games in spite of Cassel not because of him.

He ran for a first down last week in which he then immediately threw for a TD.

That is two things on the field in a row, in a winning game.

Look, I am not sold on Cassel, but I am sold on Brokie... his role is back up and back up only.

He also started last year against Baltimore under Haley.. He lost that game as well.

So yes, I will use his 10 losses as a measuring stick. I will also add that he gets hurt way to easy to even consider him as a future starter. You have a year to find out if Cassel is a NFL starter and you have paid him that much. It is not time to give up on him yet, but if he does not pan out, expect to see him gone by March of next year when he is due a 7 million dollar roster bonus.

Talk about check downs. Croyle is the king of check downs. Heck he does not even go through his progressions. He just hits the check down immediately.
