I don't expect him to not be our quarterback next year. Without a high pick at QB or without a huge trade (which I don't want) it's hard to totally replace a QB in one year without already having someone waiting in the wing. I do ****ing expect these ****heads running this franchise to finally pull their pathetic heads out of their asses and work on finding the next guy up. Alex will be here this next year, and that's fine. But if we go too much longer without finally addressing the QB position then Dorsey/Reid/Hunt will have finally been proven as certifiable reeruns.

Alex Smith is out of excuses, and he needs to deliver the best season of his career

Quote:

If Smith does not have the best year of his career, something has gone wrong. If Smith does not have the best year of his career, and Jeremy Maclin has not suffered an injury and the offensive line is better than a year ago, then something has gone wrong with Smith.

A huge chunk of the Chiefs’ success depends on that not happening.

A huge chunk of their success depends on Smith proving he is more than a guy good enough to almost win with.
Quote:

Assuming the offensive line is improved, there is more than enough around Smith for him to shake the notion that he is holding back the bigger cause. Those of us on his side of Kansas City’s biggest sports debate are counting on that.

If it doesn’t happen this year, we’re all out of excuses.
No more ****ing chances. This dillweed either blows up next season or blows the **** OUT.

This part really stuck out to me. It pretty much says "you blew an amazing opportunity and you get next year which could be your last."

They are going to draft a QB early and sit him...and Alex knows it.

Like, he wasn't even part of the progression?

What kind of high school passing offense is this shit?

Missing Tyreek is egregious but any capable QB can throw West open for probably a 40+ yarder there as well.

QB lacks any type of anticipation.

For all of the shit I've talked on Alex the past few weeks.... I enjoyed this article. Even knowing he is coming back in 2017.

Obviously we won't know until the draft, but to me it felt like he was saying, 'I've got maybe one more chance at this and its time to push the chips in.' And he should be right. Because whether you draft a QB and groom him for a year, or you end up taking one of the 2018 studs that could be game-ready, this is likely Alex's last year as the starter.

My expectations will be conservative next season. Barring the defense becoming elite, and/or having a top 3-5 running game, I will not get my hopes up for a Super Bowl bid. But, I do like the idea of Smith seeing the writing on the wall and just letting it hang loose. After all, his time is almost up and even he knows it now.

They are going to move up in the first for somebody, I bet.

Get the 5th year option and let the kid sit for a year or 2 before taking over a very talented team.

I doubt they are able to sit at 27 and wait...somebody will trade up in front of us.

Again.

Painting a scenario where the Chiefs can win a Super Bowl in 2017 with Alex Smith...

Houston and Ford combine for 28+ sacks. Berry returns and picks up where he, Mitchell, Peters and Parker left off. The run defense becomes respectable again. The run game becomes a top unit again, and the weapons stay healthy on offense....

In other words, we need A LOT to go right.

This comment and Reid's comment about winning it with Alex are telling comments.

Alex is the starter for 2017 (health permitting) but this team is going to draft a future starter.

I think so too.

Be prepared to b disappointed. They'll sit on their asses and watch every QB come off the board.

The problem is that you are thinking rationally. The Chiefs have never thought rationally at QB. Whatever plan they have they will find a way to **** it up. We're going to either take the wrong guy or someone will trade in front of us and take the guy we want. It will happen because, Chiefs.

And what have you predicted over the last few years (please provide evidence) that illustrates your vast football knowledge? I'll wait, pal.
