Jesus, why is everyone putting so much pressure on Cassel in camp? Do you think Brady, Manning, Brees, or some other high end QB looks like the best in camp?
Umm yeah, I would expect anyone of that calibre and playing experience to be pretty solid in camp

Yea Cassels passes looked good in the game 9when they let him pass) the other qb’s was given many more pass plays then cassell was. I love Brodie and always will but the bone head (throw the ball away) play cost us a win.
its preseason shouldn’t worry until we play baltimore our first game of the season and then we’ll see how Cassel and our offense performs against a very good D

He wasn’t given a chance to show a whole lot.
I’m not sold on Cassel but he certainly deserves a lot more of a shot than one preseason game before people start acting like he is a bust.
I’d also like to mention that Brodie hurt himself when he made that stupid intentional grounding play. Surely in his fourth year now he has learned the rules. Mental mistakes like that at the QB position probably burn Haley’s butt more than anything.
As far as Thigpen gos, I like his mobility and moxie but he can’t seem to do anything within the structure of the offense. Almost every good play he makes is improvised. He would be a good 2nd or third string guy but until he can prove that he can work within the offensive scheme will probably not be much else.
this is so stupid. i’m starting to not like haley’s approach. he’s a first time coach, hope he learned something good from arizona’s coach.

That doesn’t mean I think he’ll be the starter at the regular season or that Cassel won’t see significant playing time against the Vikes. I just wouldn’t be surprised to see this happen. It’d give both Cassel and Croyle extra incentive to play and train harder and would be a play right out of the Todd Haley coaching book.Based on Croyles play against Minnesota, I think it is up to him and Thigpen for the 3rd position. Frankly, I would rather keep Thigpen.
At least he took a hard shot to the Chin and still got up and played. Thats a plus.

You’re saying Gutierrez is going to be 2nd string?

I saw the same old Croyle that I have watched the last three years. He has shown me absolutely nothing to think he is an NFL QB. He may practice better, but every time he is on the field, crap happens.
I wouldn’t be upset if Croyle was cut. Unless you count handing off balls, in which I think he was part of a fumble Friday night.
Matt Gutierrez will be on the practice squad or cut by the start of the season. You can quote me on that.
I thought we were putting Cassel on the practice squad according to some of the posts I read. Are we all jumping on the Cassel bandwagon now.

After the one game last Friday. Against a very good Defense, I was impressed and some what relieved. I didn’t know he was was mobile as he is, nor good throwing the ball on the run.
Based on that one gam, I am abl to make the assumption that he will be a good QB for us, but will still have bad games, but he is a drastic improvement over Croyle and Thigpen, and I LOVED Thigpen.

captainamerica;149379 wrote:I disagree. I know it’s been said before, but it bears repeating. Thigpen put up numbers that were just as good as Cassel’s and he did so with a lot less talent around him. I think the QB position should be up for grabs. If Thigpen or Croyle outplay Cassel than they deserve to be given the opportunity for the starting job.Actually he did better than both of them in that first game in the rain. And if given the opportunity to work with real talent, then I think we will all be suprised!
