Hey mother ****er you forgot me.

Check the LSU tape. He doesn't hit them in stride. I'm not talking bubble screens. They have to slow down to catch the ball or he misses them all together.

You weren't the only one...

Apologies for those I forgot. This is a long list, you understand. Geno Mania is sweeping the nation!

You clearly need to watch more tape.

LMAO

He's not Aaron Rodgers in the LSU tape, but he's doing a pretty decent job while under pressure. Better than anything I've seen from Matty Lukewarm.

That's from a college junior going up against the #1 defense in the nation. He looks VERY good in that tape. West Virginia also has an improved team around him from last year, and Geno himself seems to have picked up his game another notch. He'll get national attention against good teams eventually, and if he performs well, he deserves to be #1 overall.

This is Smith in his sophomore year, first year as a starter and the year before Holgorsen was hired as offensive coordinator/head coach.

Sign me up for his bandwagon.


Here he is vs Clemson in the Orange Bowl

In the first game of his senior season Geno Smith completed 32 of 36 passes for 323 yards and 4 touchdowns while adding 65 yards and another TD carrying the ball against Marshall

In the second game of his senior season Geno Smith completed 34 of 39 passes for 411 yards and 5 touchdowns and had 2 carries for 18 yards. He also passed Marc Bulger as WVU's career passing yardage leader

Honestly, being able to complete passes on that legendary LSU secondary last year is impressive enough.

Shit I haven't said it in this thread though lol. I have said it before

Watch this highlight tape. Check out the last two TDs. His footwork is bad. Watch the play action pass movement. What the **** is that? Watch his feet on the last throw. He is jumping. He's not shuffling. Watch the throw. It is short and hangs because of the footwork.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EyPqRRVcRs

Watch the clemswon tape up there. When he starts hopping the pass always hangs and is bad. When he shuffles or crosses his feet, he is fine. This is going to be what the scouts are talking about. Half the battle with QBs is their feet.

Please don't tell me people are arguing with black bob over something he said that was just ****ing ignorant again...

Fixed

It is happening again...

463 yards on that secondary. With that defensive front in his grill all game long.

Mother****ing superstud.

I'm on board dude. I need to be optimistic about something Chiefs related because this season isn't doing it for me.

Holy ****.

I swear he's not a troll. I totally believe he isn't.

Dude is just so far off...I don't even know what to say.

I think I will tentatively put him atop my list. Look, none of this year's prospects approach Luck/RG3 levels of love from me. But given that Wilson has concussion issues, Barkley is inconsistent and has an average arm, Landry Jones is a game-manager, and Bray has character issues, he seems like the best prospect to me. So add me to the roster.

I would love to get him. But do you honestly think a black QB could make it in KC? The first time he runs instead of passes CP will have a melt down of epic proportions.

This.

Gotta sell the farm for this ****ing kid.

Does Wilson have a history of concussions?

JFC.

Yeah no black people live in kc.

Dum.

First of all, when you're in the pocket making your reads, the appropriate technique is to do those short little inch-high hops with both feet. Smith is shuffling, which isn't the norm or what a QB coach would teach you to do.

However, there's nothing wrong with shuffling your feet like that when you survey the field. If his pro coaches have their periods about that, that is something that can be EASILY fixed by Smith over one offseason. He's not rebuilding his throwing motion or anything.

Footwork only matters when you drop back and when you plant and throw. Smith plants and throws every single time, and he does it correctly.

You're being an idiot again.

I believe he's missed time due to two now. I think if he fell to the second round I would jump ALL OVER that shit, though.

a black qb would be fully embraced in kc. Itd be a perfect place. I was really hoping we woulda drafted Freeman with our first pick when we had the chance being a home town guy it would of really excited the fan base but what do I know im just a lonely little chiefs fan that wants them to win a superbowl

Lets get Geno and Tavon austin in the draft as a package deal

:thumb:

Not sure why I have to post in this thread to be added to the list. I'm not one of the originators, but I've been talking about the kid for a minute now.

It's cool. I am just not going to commit to a guy like that just yet. I see flaws and I voiced them. If you don't, that's OK with me. Right now, I don't see him as a first round QB. I want to see more this year. The main knock on the guy will be his footwork. It is easy to see his footwork is messing him up. It's the same on almost every bad throw.

Also, Alabama had the best defense last year. LSU might have been better on paper but they weren't a better defense.

Like the majority on the list, I haven't watched enough of the guy to form an opinion. But put me down so I can say I was one of the first because that's the currency here.

By all means, knock LSU's defense for only being a mere top 15 defense of all time when Alabama's that same year happened to be a top 5 defense of all time.

I have seen them multiple times. They beat the shit out my team in the SEC championship.

Also, bleacher Report thinks we should take Smith! It's a double jinx....LMAO

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...ack-geno-smith

Speaking of LSU, Mettenberger is one we should watch. He had a really strong arm as UGA as a freshmen. However, he got kicked off the team for off the field problems. If he has a great year, he could come out.

Yep im a fan. I just want a little qb of our own. Is that too much?!

What in the ****?

Okay, I've seen enough. Sign me up for this bandwagon.

I'm in.

I've honestly never seen the guy play. But I'm all for drafting our own stud QB for once. (Or at least making an effort) I'll see him this season, because I'm still interested in the Big 12... and because the hype around here makes me curious.

Count me in.

By the way - anybody post yet that Walter already has the Chiefs taking Geno? http://walterfootball.com/draft2013.php

From a site called draftmonster:

He is not going to be there at #8.

Especially with Wilson's concussion issue and Barkley showing middling arm strength and decision making.

The Chiefs are either going to have to do one of two things to get Geno:

1. Suck, and suck hard. The Raiders will take Smith in a heartbeat.

2. Sell the draft. At this point, giving up an equivalent to what the Redskins did for RGIII is okay by me if we can get a franchise QB.

Do the raiders have a first next year?
Posted via Mobile Device

I believe they do.

I'm on board with all of that. In fact, if we obtain Geno through whatever means necessary, I'll be happy to be a full-on apologist for whatever GM makes that move for a good 4 years before I lose faith, even if it's Pioli.

I'm in but the chiefs will prob mess it up and finish 7-9, although I don't know how with they way they have looked.

If the Chiefs lose this weekend, the season is over. At this point, it would be in the organization's best interest to play Stanzi, and one of two things will happen:

1. Stanzi surprises and is legitimately "the guy." Cool.
2. Stanzi doesn't surprise, sucks complete ass, but allows us to tank the season, thus being in position to draft "the guy." Cool.

3 comes before 2?

they have a 1st, but no 2nd from Carson Palmer.

Cassel plays every game. Angry mob attacks Clark Hunt in his home. Cool.

We can't **** this up this year, line we did with meaningless wins last year. Win 2 games or less. Yeah it sucks for fans etc but it's for the greater good. This time next year we could be sitting with the same skill guys or even better skill guys and this guy at qb.


Although I think there is collectively too much individual talent to lose that much but it could be the perfect storm

That doesn't seem to bother Romeo

The Hillis fumble on the 1 yard line last week gives me the feeling this may be a cursed season. A blessedly, miraculously cursed season. I'm keeno for Geno.

I'm in.

And may I submit "lose sixteeno for Geno" for the academy's consideration?

Last year we messed up. Start palko last three, 5-11. Colts finish us off and rivers doesn't fumble a gift away, 3-13. Bears miracle, 2-14 and a coin flip for rgIII.


Mirage of a season ending in hope and 7-9. Don't **** it up this year, do what you should have years ago and suck shit, clean house. New gm new geno smith qb and let's move forward

I like it; but it doesn't have to be approved by some fake academy nobody cares about. Use it.

I'm on board with Tyler Wilson and Geno. Have been campaigning for those 2 for quite some time now.

I couldn't get past the horrid rap music. Did he say he gon' make tuna caserole outta cameltoe?

Here you go Mahi

Additionally, can we put this and as the season progresses his snaps in the OP?

Week 3 Heisman Watch: Geno Smith leads wide-open race as Matt Barkley falters


Week 3 of the college football season is in the books, and the race for the 2012 Heisman Trophy has been dramatically altered.

USC's Matt Barkley is the latest preseason favorite to stumble, throwing two interceptions in a huge loss to Stanford.

These are the players who currently stand the best chance of actually winning the Heisman Trophy.

Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia -- Smith is off to a great start so far this season, with 734 passing yards and nine touchdown passes (with no interceptions) in his first two games. He is completing an amazing 88 percent of his passes and has an efficiency rating of 209. He is on pace to run and pass for 60 touchdowns. Granted, he is putting up these numbers against awful competition, but we all know he's a very good quarterback playing in a passer-friendly system. It's going to be difficult to for him to maintain this level against Big 12 competition, but he'll still be very productive. As with Robert Griffin III last year, he's not expected to lead his team to an undefeated season, and so Heisman voters will look to his overall numbers and how well he performs against Big 12 traditional powers like Texas and Oklahoma to gauge his worthiness. Given his solid name recognition, his potential for an elite statistical season and his odd status as a Mid-Atlantic player competing in the Southwest, he's at the top of this Watch ... for now.

http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoot...arkley-falters

Geno Smith not fazed by Heisman, RG3 talk

The comparisons? Well, they're inevitable. A quarterback with that kind of efficiency is rare.

This time last year, Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III had thrown 13 touchdown passes to just 12 incompletions through three games.

Through two games, West Virginia's Geno Smith has accounted for 10 touchdowns (one rushing) and thrown just nine incompletions.

The rarity has necessitated comparison, and Smith has already taken notice.

"I’ve been hearing all about that, and I want to put a stop to that real soon," Smith said. "RG3’s a great guy and he’s doing good things in the NFL and I’m only a college quarterback hoping to get where he is. We’re two different guys. He has a different style and I have a different style, and I’m pretty sure the only thing we both hope to do is just win games."

After Week 2, Smith's also the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy, which Griffin won last season. Like Griffin, Smith would be the program's first Heisman winner.

"It’d be better for the program and the exposure that we’ll get, but it will not make me feel better about myself or a notch on my belt. It’ll just be another trophy that I won," Smith said. "I understand that the Heisman is the biggest individual accolade in sports, and I’m honored to be mentioned among the likes of guys who worked so hard every year and who have done it in the past, but at the same time, my only goal is to win the national championship and I really want to make that clear."

Still, Smith looks like a new man this year and West Virginia a new team ready to make a big dent in the Big 12 during its first year in the league.

"Something happens to guys when they’re seniors," coach Dana Holgorsen said. "His body’s different. He’s gained weight. He’s bigger, he’s faster, he’s more confident, so he’s improved and he’s been practicing like this since the beginning of August. Watching him translate it out there in games has been fun to watch as a coach."

That talk of improvement? Smith says he feels like it's "overblown." The scariest part for defenses? He doesn't feel like he's playing much better than last year, though statistics suggest he is.

Smith completed 66 percent of his passes through two games last season, and never once had a game in which he completed more than 74 percent of his passes.

This year, Smith is completing 88 percent of his passes in two games.

"Honestly, I don’t think I’m playing that great. I’ve been making some good decisions, but I’m really inaccurate at times and guys have been bailing me out," Smith said. "I think some of it’s been overblown. It’s only been Game 2 so I think I can play a lot better. We’ll see. That’ll come with time."

Instead, Smith credits shorter throws to Tavon Austin, who turns short screens into 10+ yard gains, or Stedman Bailey's ability to climb over defenders for acrobatic catches.

Holgorsen? It's safe to say he disagrees. Opponents likely would as well.

"Obviously, we stress completion percentage, but just monitoring the game and having an idea of where we want him to go with the ball, I feel like he’s doing a really good job of that," Holgorsen said.

Five or six times already this season, Holgorsen says, Smith has avoided a likely sack. Sometimes that means tucking the ball and running on a broken play, like Smith did on his 28-yard touchdown run against Marshall.

Other times, that means buying a couple seconds to dump the ball to a back in the flats.

"He could be a running quarterback if we wanted to, but our offense isn’t going to let you put that tag on him," Holgorsen said.

It's still early, and Holgorsen and Smith don't need any reminders that life in Morgantown will get much tougher in the weeks to come. Maryland treks to Morgantown this Saturday, but for now, Smith has validated his status as the Big 12's best player, and emerged as arguably the best player in college football.

"We have to get a lot better, we’ve got to play a lot better and clean some things up and I think we’ll continue to do that. It’s all a learning process. ... as of right now we’re not near where we want to be come January," Smith said. "The hardest thing to do is not get complacent after you win 3, 4, 5 games and think you’ve figured it all out. Once you do that, that’s when you take a loss."

Implied within Smith's comments is that his team will still be playing come January. So far, he and his teammates have played well enough where the prospect is easy to believe.

I would also prefer a version for white people like me!

I posted it!

Get Smoked for Geno Smith.

Down.

When he talks like this, it makes me want him for the Chiefs. Total team talk.

How about "Tank this ****ing season and draft a mother****ing qb in the ****ing first, you rat bastard commies."

has a nice ring to it.

3 1sts and a 5th for Geno Smith

blow dudes for geno

anyone?

Hope chiefs get geno and he does well, but I fear he is a product of the system.

Normally, I'd be worried about that too. However, he looks downfield, moves well and adjusts within the pocket, has a good arm, and goes through progressions.

he doesn't fit well with what we're trying to do here. / Pioli

He is not Matt Cassel/ Pioli

Best way to make sure we draft a qb next year? Suck shit.

I hope you all enjoyed the shitty 7 win team last year. Because guess what, it's time to buck up and get thru a 1 or 2 win season this year. It's what needs to happen.

I am actively rooting against the Chiefs now. Deal with it.

Might as well jump.
