Might as well get rid of him next year.

Lay off the liquor you moron. I just blatantly stated that I was satisfied with Cassel this week. 14 of the last 18 Super Bowl winning teams (only go back to 1992 because I don't know who the winners were before that, too young) had elite quarterbacks. I'm fully aware that the reason there are so few elite teams are because there are so few elite quarterbacks.
I'll let you convince me that we can have a consistent, elite, Super Bowl caliber franchise without a consistent, elite, Super Bowl caliber quarterback.
Thanks Aussie!
It had me curious looking at the Patriots scoring defense (points given up per game by a defense) when they won Super Bowls, that I had to look at some other Super Bowl winners. With exception of 2 teams in the last 10 years, every Super Bowl champion has been in the top 6 of scoring defenses.
2009 - Saints (13th)
2008 - Steelers (1st)
2007 - Giants (5th)
2006 - Colts (20th)
2005 - Steelers (3rd)
2004 - Patriots (3rd)
2003 - Patriots (1st)
2002 - Bucs (1st) (this is in the middle of the Pats run, but this year they were 16th in scoring defense)
2001 - Pats (6th)
2000 - Ravens (1st)
The Chiefs are currently 10th in scoring defense, even after giving up 49 to the Broncos. The Chiefs are going to give themselves deep runs into the playoffs and shots at super bowls as long as they continue to improve on defense. Cassel is a great fit for what we currently have going.
This thread has become ridiculously lame fast....I'm out!
