Since the NFL is the pinnacle of the sport, it's tempting to think that NFL teams are well run by professionals. But apparently not. I bet 25 percent of current NFL teams (not the Chiefs, obviously) do stuff like this now. [Reply]
Chiefs were ahead by 20 points when this happened. Cassel should have respected the coaching staff. Instead he knew he was Pioli's boy and Haley couldn't really touch him.
Whatever lesson Haley was trying to teach Cassel that day didn't sink in. The results were clear in the postseason and in the following two seasons.
Mark Castle is the worst because he was put in the position to start for 4 fucking years. Palko, Croyle, hell... not even Blackledge did as much damage to the team and/or the fanbase as Mark Castle.
