Peppers/Cassel Trade Talks being whispered.

Cassell can't play in Fox's offense this year as well as Jake. Our offense doesn't matchup well w/ Cassell's strength's and weaknesses and Fox offense will not change. It would make no sense. Offensively we are fine. We need a defense. The offense put up the points. We need some D and some better schemes. Cassell for Peppers is laughable imo. Jake will give you 2-3 bad Jake games a year....we are just overracting b/c one of those was our last game of the season. You really think Cassell would lead us to a better year offensively than what Jake did? No way. No other QB imo will get as much out of Smitty as Jake, imo.

No way should Cassel get that kind of money. We do need a QB, but we have some serious defensive line issues. It's hard to think about trading a defensive end when we're already thin across the d.line and not at least getting some picks to address that need. Cassel looks like he will be a good QB, but if we don't stop the run and get pressure on the QB, we won't win very many games no matter who our QB is.

    • well, the comparison is to last year.  The OL is a 180 degree from that.... and overall on the season they have had better skill talent for the same QBs behind a MUCH better OL.    So yeah, the O not looking any better overall is a red flag for Canales.   
    • I just want somebody to settle into that Hangartner role and I may give Mays too much credit. He played so well early and has fell off since injuries crept into his vocabulary.  He was struggling to get push on those goal line runs today. 
    • You cannot say it doesn't matter who is playing QB ever in any circumstance. The first two games of the season, Bryce was standing in the pocket with time missing throws left and right. We were running the ball well, but even the gimme throws Canales was setting up, Bryce was missing. Then you start Dalton, boom easy win at Las Vegas. By week four's end, three of our best defenders are seriously injured, center injured, 2nd best veteran WR hurt, and best veteran WR quitting on the team.  Canales is a rookie head coach, and he definitely has had some see what sticks moves. But players are being schemed open, the rookies are progressing nicely, and you have the albatross of some terrible lack of talent to phase out. I give him credit alone for pulling Mingo, Thomas, and going with the better/younger producing players. The scheme is better, he just needs better players and I am not going to write him off until he gets more talent, starting with QB!
