News and Notes
Oct 7 QB Matt Cassel set a number of single-game career highs in Sunday's win over the 49ers, including yards (259), completions (22), attempts (32) and interceptions (two). Yahoo! Sports

Oct 6 Cassel was 22-for-32 for 259 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the Patriots' 30-21 victory over San Francisco on Sunday.

Advice: It was the first career 200-yard passing game for Cassel, who made his first NFL start three weeks ago in place of the injured Tom Brady. The career backup has been sacked 13 times in three starts, but has enough talent around him to make him a viable fantasy option.

Sep 30 New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said Tuesday, Sept. 30, that he remains confident in QB Matt Cassel leading the team for the rest of the season. "I think Matt had a good week last week, and had a good practice yesterday," Belichick said. "Offensively, collectively, we just have to do everything a little bit better. I'm confident in all the players we put out there." KFFL
