10th year for a good quarterback is always the year they go for their first 4,000 yard season.

So, Peyton faked that injury?

Yes but what is the marginal contribution of HOF runner over a league average runner?

Not saying Alex is the next young, but it's an example of a guy that didnt really get going till he was 31 years old.

I don't believe Sam has had the pleasure of meeting the Alexsexual Transplant Association.

Peyton Manning won his only SB when Joseph Addai and Dominic Rhodes stepped and produced in the post season.

Aaron Rodgers won his when James Starks produced in the post season.

Marshawn Lynch

LeGarrette Blount

It isn't about HoFers.

It's about post season production, and Jamaal Charles gives the best chance at that production.

Jamaal Charles, Justin Houston, a myriad of other dudes missing serious time changes the equation significantly. Worst case scenario, Charles goes down, misses 8 games, and the narrative is that Alex didn't have his best weapon. Where does your evaluation of him stand then?

I'm very optimistic about the Chiefs season. I haven't been this confident since 2003 and 2004 (misplaced, it turned out). The roster is very solid.

But why are we making contingencies for Smith? The defense lost DJ, DeVito, and Berry last year. Guess what? They were still good. No one is talking about Rogers having a bad season because Jordy Nelson is out for the season. No one ever has to make excuses for winners.

He just needs to step up and do it. Period.

To be fair, Aaron did it once... with 2 multi-Pro Bowlers at WR.. and by putting up very Alex-like numbers... and having a top 5 defense.

Can we use the Steve Young comparison for every QB that's under the age of 30 and hasn't quite arrived yet?

If so, great! I'm expecting awesome things from Brian Hoyer this season! He's the next Steve Young! And it all starts Sunday!

Boss, I owe you a game bro from the Denver game. What are you thinking this year?

To be fair about what?

I am talking about SB QBs being supported by an effective running game.
