This isn't what the Chiefs had planned, by any means. It's nice to think that the Chiefs just wanted to give Brodie Croyle some reps in a blowout, and Cassel was victimized by some poor work by his receivers, but his line -- 10-of-29 for 84 yards -- is just terrifying. With one more incomplete pass, he would've been fourth in the Lowest Yards Per Attempt stat we mentioned in the Kyle Boller comment. It's hard to judge him when his best receivers are castoffs Chris Chambers and Bobby Wade, but right now, Cassel doesn't even look like a borderline NFL starter, let alone the franchise quarterback the Chiefs are paying him to be.

I just hope
That this is like the Russell situation where they stick with their guy despite it being painfully obvious that they should move on.

It looks like that’s what they’re planning to do.
