(And I say that not thinking Mahomes is going to win the spot, or even wishing him to. If Alex can step up his game, I'm all for PMII to sit, watch, and learn this season.)
I domt know how much motivation that is. IMO guys are motivated by either money or winning. Seems like guys have that fire or they don't by age 33. [Reply]
They were talking about Mahomes vs. Smith on Fox National radio today. They were stroking Mahomes, and said he is what the Chiefs need to get over the top.
They mentioned how Smith is steady and doesn't turn the ball over. Hell, he does turn the ball over, and some of the worst possible times, too.
This just shows that Mahomes is catching a lot of eyes, and literally everyone with a brain knows that Smith is the Chiefs' limiter, even though he is a decent QB. [Reply]

I really love your drugs, and would like to purchase, please.

Yes. These. It's never easy to be the shining beacon of truth among idiots, but I have observed both of you fighting this war valiantly for many years now. I salute you and and encourage you to be ever-vigilant against the sneaky, cowardly True Fan. We've just about got this thing wrapped up, but we haven't planted the flag yet.
Have a drink, reload, and get ready to engage in the final slaughter of these fools; our time has come.

The potential to supplant the dreaded Belibrady is there for the taking. If the gods and critical timing are with us, we can orchestrate the rise of Mahomes in conjunction with showing those two cheating frauds to the door.
So much rides on the QB and Veach's ability to continue what Dorsey began, but it CAN be done now.
Understand this:
The team that shuts that operation down, and convincingly, WINS EVERYTHING. [Reply]
It's a rare to get a stud QB and nobody knows that better than us. Moving forward they need to make decisions that make Mahomes the best he can be. That means give him a red shirt year. It will pay off for next season. [Reply]

We have had a lot of guys play QB right away and be just fine. I cant remember the last guy ruined by playing too soon. [Reply]
Man, you can't ask for a better throw than this. Alex has looked good throwing the ball down the field this preseason in a small sample size pic.twitter.com/dH37s6a03d

The problem with this statement is that you have no way of knowing if some the busts might not have busted had they sat at least a season. [Reply]

Hard to say, but given the circumstances and what we know of Mahomes Id wager he wouldn't be a strong "ruined by playing too soon" candidate. Im seeing and hearing more Manning than Leaf. [Reply]

Manning sucked his first season.
We have Smitty and a legit shot at the SB w him starting. There is 0 reason to start Mahomes this year. The kid is young and has plenty of years ahead of him. [Reply]
