Tom or Matt

hooskins · 11-25-2008, 11:06 PM

This is a very dumb thread...let's see Cassel win a ring this year and put up 300+ for the rest of the season.

Then maybe we can talk.

I second that motion. Dumbest thread I've seen in a while.

the first thing i thought of, when i saw the title was a battle over warpath supremacy. isn't one of the new guys named Tom?

Hog1 · 11-26-2008, 10:22 AM

Joke right?
Hmmmm....3 SB's won........3 games won.........big decision?

i admit im a belichik (sp) hater and was really hoping brady's injury would show that it was him and not belicheck that was the difference maker. it appears i was wrong, that machine just keeps on chugging along.

brady over cassel? i dont think so but considering the pats are a lil smug in proving they can do it with anybody makes it a possibility. BUT belicheck does not mind and might actually prefer old veteran guys, their team picks up alot of old vets and plugs them in.

go skins!!!

That's what Drew Bledsoe thought.

But seriously, the Pats just lost Cassell as their backup. He'll be starting somewhere like SF, Detroit, KC or maybe even Jacksonville next season. Heck, maybe even a team with an aging starter like TB (Garcia) or Seattle (Hasselbeck) would bring him in as a near-future replacement.

Yeah but Bledsoe wasn't a 3 time SB champ and talked about as being one of the all time greats.

The Patsies have a good situation, a solid backup quarterback. Brady is still the guy, but if I were the Patsies owner, I would keep Cassell for insurance not unless someone offered me a Hershall Walker deal.

For those of you that do not know about the Hershall Walker trade. Here is a full explanation.

Yes he healed successfully but he aint gonna be a pro-bowler anytime soon.

Rivers for Brees thats an example as why to keep Brady.

Cassell is going to command a pretty sweet contract on the open market, and a starting job as well. The Pats won't be able to keep him unless for some crazy reason he decides he doesn't want to start elsewhere.

Bingo.

SFREDSKIN · 11-26-2008, 11:48 AM

I read somewhere that Bill "steroid freak" Romanowski predicted this would happen (obviously the steroids warped his brain). It ain't gonna happen!! How many superbowls has Brady won? 3 How many has Cassell won? NONE

2 400 yard passing games are not going to give him the job fulltime unless Brady's knee is totally screwed up.

Enough said.

Ruhskins · 11-26-2008, 11:49 AM

New England would be crazy enough to do just that. I mean they got rid of Adam V., who is responsible for at least one of their SBs, they got rid of Deion Branch, and they were willing to part ways with Randy Moss (except Moss wanted to play there). Belicheat is enjoying Cassell's success right now, since it is making him look like a supergenius.
