Hell, let's put Jerick McKinnon in at QB to run the read-option.

This is Matt Cassel, gentlemen. An inconsistent "game manager."

I agree. On a serious note, if Cassel throws a fourth interception, do you make a change at quarterback just to see if he'll settle down, or do you just stick with him till the bitter end and call it a bad game?
I've told people a million times not to exaggerate!

I hope they don't bring Teddy in when they are losing like this. Not the way to get him in the game.

I feel bad for the people who paid to go watch this game, hopefully the hotdog was good.

Yea. Its the offense that has been turning the ball over and getting stupid penalties that have set up the Patriots in good position to score points. I think that we have like 17 points now given up on turnovers.

First series was a bunch of misdirection to The TE and RB using Patterson as a decoy. It was a great series but you can't run a full game like that. Someone other than Patterson needs to get open in the receiving corp and Cassel obviously needs to make better decisions.

If anything good can come from this maybe no more Cassel!

Imagine that, Fouts. Gostkowski can't kick it as far against the wind.

Stupid physics.

That was a play where we missed Peterson. No burst for Asiata (who has played well, by the way).
