It’s Quinn This Week
From the Truman Sports Complex
Brady Quinn will get the start at quarterback this Sunday when the Chiefs host the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium.
Head coach Romeo Crennel made that announcement Wednesday morning, adding that Matt Cassel will be the No. 2 quarterback.
“Try(ing) to give him enough time to accomplish what I wanted to accomplish when I made the move, trying to change the dynamic of the team,” Crennel said of Quinn. “He had his injury and wasn’t able to fulfill it. Now that he’s cleared and back healthy, (I want to ) give him that opportunity to do that. We’ll see how it plays out.”
This is now the seventh week of quarterback roulette for the Chiefs; it started when Cassel went down with a concussion in an October 7th game against Baltimore:

The common denominator in the last six games is that the Chiefs lost all of them, scoring 6, 10, 16, 13, 13 and 6 points and have scored just 3 touchdowns.
Good news, no it is not about Quinn or CAssel.
The team, guess who, picked up a addition to the practice squad. That is correct a kicker/punter. What-is-his-name was in training camp.
Any idea why?
When you look at this article and the points scored all I can say is if that isn’t a powerfull case to get a new starting QB then I don’t know what is.
