Re: Matt Cassell: Joke or No Joke

I think Brady is a product of NE system.

Brady has all of the natural tools I'll give you that but if you put him on another team I don't think he would have the same record numbers that he's had.

So the same goes for Cassell. He can naturally make the throws but NE's system is enhancing his abilities.

NE definitely has an awesome system. Certainly both Brady and Cassell wouldn't look as good on lesser teams (although Tom Brady is a pro-bowler on any team IMO). But they still have to study, learn, lead, and make all the throws.

I think it helped that Cassell was learning from Brady for a few seasons before taking the field, and also has an unreal coaching staff around him. That shouldn't diminish his accomplishments, however it should somewhat temper expectations if he lands on a team with a god awful offense.

People crack me up with this silly system talk. Brady is a great QB, end of discussion. There are not that many QB's in the NFL that can sit back in the pocket and beat you by just throwing it 40-50 times a game. He is one of the very few that can do it. He can just sit back in the pocket and pick a defense apart. The guy won 3 SB's with Deion Brach, Troy Brown and David Givens as his WR's. Then when he gets Moss and Welker and puts up numbers that may never be broken. Need I say more??

Yeah I agree. He was getting it done and winning SB's with a bunch of no-name WRs.
