Agreed on the literal interpertation. The Eagles went 2-1 with Kolb as a starter after the first Redskins game while the Chiefs were shut out on offense against the Chargers when Cassel was out. Heck the Pats won 11 games with Cassel while Brady was out.

Not sure about that. The Chiefs coaching staff called a game far too scared for a QB that they have had for almost 4 years. Not only that, their defense couldn't get themselves off the field and gave the Chargers many long drives.

Still it shouldn't have been bad enough to produce a shut out.

Having only 20 minutes with the ball combined with almost always running on first down does increase the probability.

Not only that, Cassel only had a 3.1 yards per attempt against the Chargers in the season opener AND his best yards per attempt figure against the Chargers was 5.7 last year.

Cassel reminds me of a poor mans Troy aikman

I know its lame but i think this calls for a co-MVPs
Brady and Vick

People did try to diminish his past performances.
I used to live in ATL and Vick's ability was indelible.
I never thought he was done, honest*.


*Post 210 i was arguing in another forum or should i say against an entire forum it seemed like:
WT 360: Vick heads home, but will he return to NFL as a Redskin?

Brady, less talent around him

Cassel has had a great season no doubt, but the Chiefs also have the best rushing attack in the league at 167.5 yards per game to keep the pressure off of him.

Tucker Carlson is such a walking POS

It's not even worth addressing his idiocy

I think the discussion should be between Brady, Cassel, and Aaron Rodgers. Look at Rodgers' numbers and also look at how Green Bay has performed when he's not in the lineup. No offense to Matt Flynn but it's not the same. Not saying Rodgers deserves it, just sayin he needs to be under consideration.

With all that said though, it's gotta be Brady. If Brady finishes the season without throwing another pick I think he'll have it locked up in a landslide.

Thanks for posting. Great article, I love perspective of the comparisons to the greats...tell ya I think I gotta switch my vote from Vick to Brady. Its really close how these guys have played in my mind. When you look at the recievers around Brady, its even more mind numbing what the guy has done this year.
