Of those 72, if I work backwards through time and pick the 24th and 48th as our two (assuming that we drafted at even time intervals throughout that period, those two quarterbacks would be Joe Flacco and Akili Smith. The Akili era would've been challenging, but I wouldn't mind having Joe Flacco, I guess.

We need to start asking the question. "Where is our Flacco?"
The Chiefs have decided signing a Flacid is a better way to go than drafting a Flacco.

Oh, you said Flacco, not Falco...my mistake.

And said team has never, in its history, ever drafted and developed their own starting QB. And said team has a consistent history of being one and done in the playoffs.

Correlation & Causation?

Three teams playing this weekend have drafted first-round quarterbacks since 2004. However, 21 of the teams that have been eliminated have drafted first-round quarterbacks since 2004. Obviously from these figures, drafting a first-round quarterback hurts your chances.

The Chiefs have four playoff wins since 1970.

Since 1970, there have been 19 quarterbacks taken in the first round with either more playoff wins than the Chiefs, or a Super Bowl.

Those 19 quarterbacks have accounted for 25 of the last 46 Super Bowl wins.

Please, Chiefs. Please.

It isn't about drafting a 1st Round QB, it is about drafting the RIGHT QB for your team. Whatever round that is in. You shouldn't draft a QB just because it is the 1st round. Let's not forget in 2014 Johnny Manziel was drafted in the 1st and Derek Carr was drafted in the 2nd. This fixation on the 1st round is ridiculous.

Thread after thread after thread of anti-Alex Smith crybabies?

We have teams that are bad at quarterback. We have teams that are good at quarterback. Two conclusions are abundantly obvious:

1) The Chiefs are really bad at quarterback.
2) Don't be bad at quarterback.

I'm talking to you, Clarke.

Chiefs suck.

What an incompetent franchise. I don't think they understand the positive correlational relationship between a great quarterback and a championship.

3 of the 4 that are alive have quarterbacks that were drafted by their team in the first round.

Hard to argue against this.
KC needs some ballers & game changers at the receiver position. Along with a Q/B with a big arm.

I wonder what this list would look like if it included QBs taken in the first 2 rounds.

Then again, maybe it's best we don't look and see. Grown men logged on to a website about football should not be weeping.
