You need to get this out of your head. Barring an Alex Smith injury, Mahomes isn't starting any games this season.

Then the only reason to go to a Chief game is a fair well to see Dustin Colquitt punting and setting up hidden touchdowns. Next year Dustin wont' be getting on the field so much as Patrick Mahomes II will keep drives alive.


I only want to go to a Chiefs game for my kids and it's a fun atmosphere especially winning ball games but not to go see Alex Smith . He makes me not want to go.

I'm going hold out possibilities Patrick gets some playing time this year just so I can have something to look forward too.

Thanks for posting TW. That's a good read.

I'm pretty sure that number is negative. Somehow. We had negative capable QBs on the roster.

Just...let them have their idiotic fantasy.

It's going to make the crushing blow all the sweeter.

“Unfortunately, age comes into this thing,” Reid said. “You get old in this business. At one time (Smith) was the young up-and-comer. That doesn’t mean you’re going to be replaced tomorrow.

“But this is what’s real. You’re not as young as you used to be, so you bring a guy in, and this thing keeps position. It’s life.



This maybe Alex Smith season at least to start the season, I mean it is what have you done for me lately in any job. So if he doesn't go out and preform to expectations then he is replaceable and that is why they went out and traded up 17 spots for Patrick Mahomes II. If he is ahead of schedule and Alex continues to be a wiener it really doesn't matter what Coach says at the start of the season things change. Now if Alex Smith continues what he is doing in preseason then for rights he will undoubtedly keep his job. I think he will come out playing his best ball but how long will he keep it up is the question before he goes back into a shell after a sack or int?

I have said in the recent past that Alex11 has been given a set of objectives to master in able to play better football which I am sure means making the long passes ands threading the needle. Either alex11 will put 110% in and make the plays he used to scrub or we have someone who can. from everything we have heard he is doing great work. If he doesn't up his game then he will be let go by the Chiefs as soon playoffs begin and probably not have much value (certainly not $17 to $20M a year post Chiefs) to another team for his last few years.

He now is in a special place where he has been before (well not exactly). He hopefully takes control and gives 110% to the challenges the coaches have given him. If not it's 1 year contracts and new teams every year. He has a lot of reasons to play hard and find ways to win this year so he can either stay with the Chiefs (NADA) or get a nice multi year contract with some guaranteed income.

The Chiefs could offer him a contract for 2018 depending on if he wins the AFC or better yet the SB but most likely he will be traded for salary cap reductions and draft picks. He knows it and I think you will see the best effort from Alex11 we have ever seen this season. He is highly motivated as a great season is his best bet for gainful employment after this season in the NFL.

So which is it? is going to the game for... you? .. or your kids? Or let me guess. They are plenty old enough to know that Alex sucks too? ROFL

Hopefully we'll see Mahomes after the bye.

You just answered your own question! ROFL

My son is 16 and yes he thinks Alex Smith sucks.

Smart kid! Has he started college yet?

Not yet, but he is a smart kid and thanks :thumb:

He is smart he told me two weeks before the draft he liked Patrick Mahomes II the best because he watched the combine and all that stuff. He knows his players pretty well. He pointed out some of the players at TC that I didn't know. So yeah I think he has some football smarts.

Krap has 16 tds in his last 11 starts throwing to trash cans.

You have to combine Alex starts from last year and this preseason to get 16 tds.

Also has higher career passer rating, more playoff wins, and has been as deep as Smith has ever been in playoffs twice.

Krap is no longer playing, so that gives perspective on what a POS Alex is.

What is wrong with that sentence? I don't see how what he said implies it's about him wanting to go to the game. It's about him wanting to bring his sons to the game.

I only want what is best for my kids.

I only want to go so I can feed the hungry.
