This team is going to need a top notch run game to make an AFC Championship under Alex Smith in 2017, along with a top notch defense. Now, if Mahomes becomes as good as many including myself think he could be, it's a whole new level for the Chiefs. The offense could become something it hasn't been in nearly 15 years.
I honestly dont see our guys being quite as dynamic as Atlantas duo
But what our guys lack in explosiveness, they should be be able to make up for with with a grinding, wear you down, kill the clock style... provided Ehingers return is the cure for what ailed us last year
What Alex Smith brings this year, I have no clue... tempted to expect the same old shit because thats how he has mostly played for his entire career
But maybe, just maybe, the writing on the wall spurs him to reach outside of himself and he tries to MAKE plays for once... 'good' Smiff can approach dynamic, we'll see
The pressure will either make him wilt, or make him show off
If he decides to grab his balls, we could have a great year [Reply]

They make the lives of fans who are actually interested in building a winner miserable day in, day out, year in, year out, . . . on the pretense that it's because the Chiefs don't have SB rings, when it's really because they're itching to open up draft day presents and beat their meat about how exciting it will be.
Please god never let Baby Lee serve as an ambassador for this country. His ability to analyze situations is pure horse shit, and would likely send us in to WWIII.

YOU are the one who said that the real fun is moving up to pick a QB and then waiting in excitement to see if he's any good. YOU are the one who said that, when the pretense here has been forever is that the ONLY real fun in all the NFL is a SB ring.
Originally Posted by Baby Lee: I know, your like has forever bleated that the ONLY ONLY ONLY way to win a championship is to draft a high first round QB.

We can just try it YOUR WAY again and again and again.
I too believe in Mahomes, probably more than most who jack off about him all day around here. But it has nothing to do with gambling on high picks at QB for the sake of excitement. I believe in Mahomes BECAUSE I believe in Dorsey and Reid.
False. We have tried it the other way for 3+ decades. SO finally we do it the way I've been hoping for 30 years and I'm stoked for it. If he fails then fuck it figure something out I know there are other ways. Jeff Hosteler won after Phil Simms went down and he was clutch for the Giants but he was lucky enough for a wide right field goal for the win and LT defense.
Shit happens.
I have no clue why just because they happened to finally do it the way I want mean that I don't think other ways work. The difference is it hasn't worked so I'm just stoked it happened now and a good kid that has absolute potential to be a great/elite quarterback but I know that takes hard work and determination and all that goes in development.
I've preached developing quarterbacks for years. [Reply]

I didn't put those words in your mouth.
How is it not fun to move up in a draft and get the quarterback your GM and HC have faith and conviction so that I can believe in the same quarterback?
Are we as fans not suppose to have fun in the draft and everything football?
It's fun to see we have a winner on our hands. I'm not looking at any other options. If it doesn't work out then I'll be wrong right up there with GM John Dorsey and HC Andy Reid. The difference I won't lose my job for being wrong.
I want to win a Super Bowl and now I think we are on that road. What's there to argue about? [Reply]

I think the difference is that you don't appreciate the hard work and determination it takes to get the Super Bowl. You just want to celebrate the Super Bowl. I want to celebrate the road to victory and recognize the sacrifices it takes to get there. Just like road in life without the journey there is no destination. [Reply]
I'd rather be wrong about Alex Smith and win a Super Bowl with Alex Smith this year. Go win us a Super Bowl Alex Smith or Fuck Off. I will joyfully eat crow we win a Super Bowl with Alex Smith. [Reply]

Theres a better chance of Dane actually being nice AND Tigger to stop licking Danes balls than there is of Alex Smith winning a superbowl...
it's not about being wrong if alex helps with a super bowl win. it's about not rushing someone into a position they aren't ready for, and securing options in the future whether it be salary cap reasons or production reasons. alex has done nothing to lose his position as starter this year. if he chokes the team has another option the year after. if he doesn't choke, the team wins, alex demands a high restructure on his contract and is then left to find a team willing to pay it. either way its a win win. :-) [Reply]

If Mahomes ends up busting (and I obviously hope to hell he isn't a bust, and I think he will be good), fans would eventually become anti-Mahomes.
Don't act like you haven't been through that situation before. I'm sure when the 49er fans drafted Smith, there were plenty more optimistic fans in support of him the first couple-few years than there were in 2010. Or 2011-2012 for that matter.
Oh, I very much have been in that situation.. which is why I am calling it now.
There will be every excuse handed to Mahomes... and that in and of itself is ok. That's typically what fans do for their QBs that they have hopes for.
The difference here will be.. the extreme hypocrisy in excusing this one, when there was not an inch of latitude extended to another.
You're right. I have seen it with my own eyes, as a somewhat former SF fan. It was and still can be hilarious to read people defend one with similar lines that they once condemned others for using on another. [Reply]
