Exactly. I mean, can it get worse?

Big gamble vs wasting the last few years?


I’ll take a gamble. We’ve wasted enough with Smith.

Is Mahomes Andy's last surge for the Super Bowl before retiring to an all you can eat Hawaiian BBQ?

Thats okay Andy can get him some Hawaiian BBQ if we win a SB. I'm sure we can all chip in and get him a lifetime supply.

I'm not looking for our secondary to been a stone wall... Just turn overs please.

Just for the record, I think you both are crazy. I hope you're right, but I don't see it.

My last jersey was bought for me in 2005 after Derrick Johnson was drafted. I'm seriously considering a Mahomes jersey myself.

I have said before that I think this defense will be good. At least average. If Veach could add a good CB, I'd be ready to call it a potential top 10 defense.

The front 7 could use another good DL but it is pretty good as it is.

"It’s far from a guarantee Mahomes will be as good as Smith."

lol

Because we lost one of our biggest stars and are replacing them with younger players/non-first rd rookies + Eric Berry is coming back from a major injury.

Media won’t go for things unless they are more known.

I think at least in this first year, there may be a couple of bad games where he throws 3-4 picks. HOWEVER...

I don’t think there will be many weeks, if any, where the offense really struggles to score points or move the ball like we have saw in the past with Smith.

Then last season the Chiefs blew a 21-3 lead and lost their playoff opener to the Tennessee Titans. It wasn’t Smith’s fault, but the Chiefs probably knew they had reached their ceiling with him.
Yes it was.
