It looks serious enough..... if he gets put on IR, there goes the Chief's season.

The Chiefs had a season to begin with?

There are a couple of teams out there that I would predict to be vastly improved from last year.  The Chiefs are one of them.

If you ask me, Tyler Thigpen is just as good, if not better than Cassel...the Chiefs will be fine...well as fine as a sub par .500 team can be.

Cassel going down is the best thing that could happen to the Chiefs.  He is horribly overrated.

Cassel "just" sprained his MCL. He'll be back in 2-4 weeks.

In other words, he could be ready for the season opener against Baltimore - although they might want to just chalk that game up as an "L" and spare Cassel. Oakland is up the following week and that seems like a good game to toss Cassel back in.

Agreed.  I would not put Cassel in there against Baltimore.  That defense has been known to chew up QB's and spit 'em out.

^^^ That's the kind of comment I expect from someone who doesn't watch any football outside of Sportscenter highlights... the 49ers starter last year and this year is Shaun Hill.

Right. We all know this. The point is that at least the Broncos have a starter, albeit horrible in Orton, 3 draft picks to go with it, while the 9ers have a number one overall draft pick that raped them for millions and all the have to show for it is the splinters in his ass from riding the pine and pocket lint.

Three draft picks and NO GUARANTEE that they will find a franchise QB like Jay Cutler.  And now their star receiver wants out as well.  Fine mess Josh Daniels has gotten himself into, alienating the core players on his team.

He isn't alienating anyone. What he is doing is getting rid of the "me first" players and the pre-madonas.  You can't call it a mess until you see what the finished product is. They haven't even played a game yet.

By the way, there will be about 4 or 5 franchise QB's coming out in next years draft, and they will be fully loaded to choose whichever one they want.
