Former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Rich Gannon will team with Ian Eagle to once again call the game against the Washington Redskins this weekend.  Gannon, normally of CBS and Sirius Satellite Radio, joined the Morning Rush on 610 Sports to talk Chiefs.

I’ve gone through a lot of what Gannon said, and while none of it is groundbreaking, it’s some pretty interesting stuff.

Since Gannon’s calling the game, so he couldn’t go Theismann on us and pick against his former team.  He says the Chiefs can win on the road tomorrow.  He’s one of the optimistic ones when it comes to the Chiefs future and some of their valuable assets, mainly Matt Cassel.  However, an 0-5 record doesn’t come with its faults.

“The thing that bothers me right now is their inability to run the football,” he said.  “That’s a problem they have to get straightened out.”

With no running game to speak of, what about the passing game and Cassel?

“I think he’s starting to realize he doesn’t have the same talent around him as last year,” Gannon began, “but I really think this guy’s got a chance to be an elite quarterback in the NFL. I really believe that.”
