I laugh at the idiots who assume Cassel will suck just because EJ Manuel was ahead of him on the Bills depth chart.
Th Bills mainly made that decision based on potential. Manuel's the younger guy with less tape on him so people tend to put more faith in unknown commodities over known JAGs like Cassel.

Just because Manuel sucks does not mean Cassel is any better.

Earlier this morning ESPN was highlighting a 4 INT game Cassel had in his last start as a Viking.
The INTs came on aggressive throws down field.
I said a couple of weeks ago if Cassel throws a couple of INTs making throws down field, I'm fine with that because at least he's trying.
Weeden's style of playing, while safe/conservative, will not net you any wins. Hence his 0-12 record over his last 12 starts.
I'm interested in seeing the new look offense. We made two clear upgrades (QB & LG) that should pay immediate dividends.

The stats, W-L record, and eye test says otherwise.
EJ Manuel is complete shit and shouldn't even be in the league. Cassel is at least a serviceable back up.

Saw a report that some Bills players were upset when he was dealt because he was thought of as their best QB.

I tuned in for 5-10 minutes just to see how the stream held up and as you mentioned it was inconsistent.
It was clear for me for the most part but a couple of times the picture blurred up and it buffered for a couple of seconds another time.

Exactly right...Cassel is not a world beater, but he is better than Manuel. Not tracking how their could be an intelligent argument for Manuel over Cassel.

The only one I can think of (and, it's not a very good one) is that Manuel was cheaper to keep.
