With the end of the decade, it's time for us to select our all-decade team for the 2010s. Credit to Direckshun for the idea; I'm just implementing it.
Here are the rules:
1. I'll put up lists of position groups one at a time.
2. Each list will contain guys who had at least one notable stat line in their career. I'll generally put them in descending order of some key stat.
3. The stats will contain ONLY their body of work between 2010 and 2019 for the Chiefs. No pre-2010 stats and no stats for other teams.
4. The number of roster spots will be the same as the number of roster spots on the 2019 Super Bowl roster for the Chiefs.
5. You can use whatever criteria you want to select the team. It can be total stats for the decade, it can be dominance in a shorter period, it can be playmakers who didn't screw up badly, whatever. It's your call. Feel free to use any criteria not listed in your decision. For example, if you know that Terrance Copper was an amazing blocker, you can build that into your decision.
6. In a subsequent poll we will determine which players are the starters on the all-decade team. In the first round, you're just going to fill the 53-man roster.
Our next position group is quarterbacks. THREE quarterbacks.will make the all-decade team. So pick THREE quarterbacks.
Note: I'm only including quarterbacks who recorded yardage in an actual NFL game. [Reply]
I went Orton over Moore but now I’m regretting it. My reason had been that at one point I had some small hope Kyle could just be our starter. But Moore got us through a tough Vikings game that we needed for the 2 seed. Sorry, Matt. Won’t happen again. [Reply]
I put Alex because he pulled us out of the shit puddle we were in. But damn...it's amazing to think that he has 76 starts and 102 TD's...and Mahomes has only 31 with 76 TD's...one for every game Alex started...and basically one more season and a half for Mahomes and he'll eclipse Alex easily...in probably what, 55 starts...
...and Alex was good. This guy is other worldly! [Reply]

Mahomes averaging 2.5 tds per game. Alex was at 1.3. He'll pass him in tds by game 10. [Reply]
