Can't find a link, but apparently, a local station in Tampa is breaking the news.
At least we're not giving up any picks for him.

SHUT IT
You are trying to compare these 2 qbs based on stats, where I am comparing them based on the environment they were placed in. Thats the way I roll. At any rate we will have to disagree and hopefully we can agree that the Chiefs now have 2 excellent qbs to build on...
SHUT IT
:439:I roll with white zig zags!!
The only reason a beer sweats around Canada is because he's decided it will be the next beer he drinks.
Well, if you want some facts....
Cassel took a team that had been 19-1 over their last twenty games, to 10-5.
Thigpen took a team that had been 1-14 in their last 15 games to 1-9.
So, basically, Cassel took a team that couldn't lose, and managed to lose some. While Thigpen took a team that couldn't win, and managed to do about the same. (A smig better.)
Unlike baseball, where a guy hits home runs by his own accord, TDs in football are based on the blocking, pass catching and play-calling around you.
So a QB is not nearly as responsible for his numbers as a batter is in baseball.
If you want to look at the environment...how about the snow game he threw for 400 yards in?
what about DOMINATING the AFC West, who he will face 6 times a year...
I think its a big test this season, I like Thiggy, but hes just not accurate on the deep ball, whereas Cassel can throw it on a rope 60 yards to a guy running FULL SPEED not stopping for 3 seconds to wait for the ball.
But check the schedule, Thigpen last season faced a lot of weak defenses, and only showed up in the first half, this season, Cassel or Thiggy will be facing probably the toughest schedule the chiefs have had in years.
I think there was no press conference to keep the photo op's down...The schedule sets up either to fail unless KC decides to fix the right side of their line.
well i was a thiggpy supporter so i guess we shall see what happens
You must be kidding.
Individual statistics in football don't mean alot. And for every "credible" analyst that you find who disagrees with that, there are four of them who will agree.
And I am unimpressed with your guess that someone else could make me look silly.
Hell. I can do that, easy.
But, if stats mean so much, then tell me which QB was the real Brett Favre...
56%, 3,885 Yards, 18 TDs, 18 Ints, 72.7 QB Rating
or...
64.1%, 4,088 Yards, 30 TDs, 17 Ints, 92.4 QB Rating
?
There really is no "Credible" analyst who won't admit that QBs depend on the rest of their team to help accumulate wins and individual statistics.
Not one.
(2-14) = (2-14)
Not that it matters.
