Key time coming for Cassel
New England Patriot’s quarterback Matt Cassel has never started a game before Tom Brady was injured. Now, with his third start coming soon a key period of time is coming for him.
The third game is when teams start figuring out quarterbacks. The reason is that teams have a bunch of game film, and can figure out what his tendancies are.
Cassel is not a rookie as he is now in his fourth year in the league. So, his studying habits, and knowledge of the Patriots offense is far more advanced than what normal a normal rookie would know.
Simply, if Cassel struggles in games it could even cost him his career as a backup in the league. After all who wants a backup that cannot step in, and win games.
