Matt Cassell Evaluation

**Sn@keIze** · 05-10-2009, 04:47 PM

Just got done watching Kansas City Chiefs Matt Cassell on NFL replay as he played the Colts.

In this game Ive seen:

1). Matt has a good ability to scramble when all else fails, but he needs to learn to go knees first or hes going to get hurt.

2). He will look off Safeties to get a wide out more open.

3). A lot of his yards come from throwing to a reciever and letting him do the work ( at least in this game ). But with a Wes Welker, thats a no-brainer.

4). I love his pocket presence. He is aware of his drops and even in shotgun goes back into the pocket. Although at times he seems too anxious or figety, you can tell hes been sacked a lot.

5). He will rely on his recievers and throw the ball up there and let the recievers and DBs play keepaway. Most of the times in this game for not. Which is why is really sucks that we dont have TG.

6). Not impressed by his "comeback at the end of the game" ability (at least not in this game). A lot of it to do with #5.

This is just base on this game. And he held his own against a former championship team with a lot of talent losing 18-15.

If you missed it they will re-air it again at 10:00 tonight (Sunday) and tommorow at noon (Central time). NFL network.

What do you think?

I think after watching the 2 vids of Matt and Thig that Matt is a bit faster then Thig... What i would give to have a young Priest holmes type back in this new offense...A RB that can catch the ball outa the back field like LT in his day and priest.

I would appreciate any scouting anybody has on Matt Cassell thus far.

I dont care if its with the Patriots. I WANT TO KNOW!

Thanks.

I'm sorry, I didn't read anywhere in your original post where you where looking for any scouting. You asked what I/we thought, I told you.

Thank you.

You guys we can speculate all we want but the only thing that matters is how he will play with the team he is with now. The 2009 Chiefs and the 2008 Patriots are entirely different. From what I have seen Mark will be an improvement on what we had last year. After all he has been seen one of the best play and has learned from him so that is a big advantage. We hope and pray he is the next JM or close but that remains to be seen.

The name of the thread is "Matt Cassell Evaluation."

Pretty self explanatory .

And who says it has to be in the original post. Can I not add further suggestions?

Im just referring to what people may have seen in the recent games the NFL re-aired pertaining to Matt Cassell performance.

Out of this Dolphins games Ive seen a lot of toughness. He was sacked and knocked on his arse and harrassed, limpin around and still mustered up 415 yards.

Thats true. But one interesting thing to keep in mind is (I believe) Matt Cassell was sacked/hurried most in the NFL. Still produced good #s.

Believe it or not. O-line protection may be a step up here! But then again, had we had one QB throughout the season, he may have been sacked more.

Still, being a proven player at NFL level speaks a lot.

It's your thread; you can do whatever you want with it, but even the title doesn't suggest that you're looking for scouting regardless of how "self explanatory" you believe it to be. I simply was telling you what I thought.
