OT: Charlie has still has his magic touch

Submitted by iawolve on

Actually being a Chiefs fan, this is a bit difficult to make fun of, but my disdain of Charlie trumps most anything else. I am sure you could understand my joy when he announced that his first goal was to "fix the quarterback" when he arrived into Kansas City.

Granted KC is now 2-0, but with little help from their QB Matt Cassel under Charlie's tutelage. 

"According to passer ratings, Matt Cassel is having as bad a year as football has seen since the early '90s.... His passer rating is now 55.8. No quarterback has started at least 12 games with a passer rating that low since Browning Nagle for the Jets in 1992."

That man can mess anything up. Brady must be superman for actually doing well under the guy.

Browning Nagle, thats a blast from the past.  I never thought that Cassel was that good, but he should know the system better than most.  I dont follow the Chiefs, but do they have any receivers and they seem to be running because they have good RB's.

While I certainly think Weiss has been off the past couple of years, Cassell always struck me as a flash-in-the-pan, throwing to guys responsible for one of the most prolific offenses in NFL history.  I figured he would struggle in KC, and it has borne out that way so far.
