So, how does everyone feel about the Reid era so far?
I'm an Eagles fan and I've been posted now and again. Reid was a huge part of the Eagles for so long, so I will be heavily following the Chiefs going forward. More out of curiosity than anything.
So the NFL Draft is almost here, and I'm curious as to what everyone thinks about the Reid era in KC so far and what moves the new regime has done under Reid. |
Feel good. Tough year to start with this draft and it's QBs. Just hope we take a chance on one in rd 1
|
If you like 6 win seasons.
|
Feeling much better about this team than I did at the end of last year, that's for certain. I'm really hoping that Geno is the pick at #1, but none-the-less I'm definitely looking forward to this upcoming season.
|
So far it is SSDD.
|
Yeah, the Eagles need a QB of the future badly and I just wish we had a #4 pick in last year's draft. Not this one.
I really look forward to seeing what Reid and the Chiefs do with that #1 overall. |
Nice to know we have a competent staff and front office so far well see after this year how I feel
|
Kind of hard to tell anything at this point since they've played zero games.
Ask again in about 3 years. |
I wonder what Geno will be doing tommorow at his workout.
He apparently arrived tonight and had dinner with club officials. Could of been just Reid but who kbows. Maybe Clark was there. |
Id feel better without alex smith
|
This is the first time in a while where I have no idea who will be the #1 pick. I think I know how Reid thinks pretty well, but I don't even have a clue right now. I have a hunch it won't be Joeckel, but what do I know...
|
So far so good minus Alex smith. Will post again after the draft.
|
**** the eagles and **** you!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |
I feel the same.
It wasn't but a year ago that Pioli was being praised for the offseason he had in acquiring guys like Hillis, Boss, and Winston. Shame we still had Cassel... and Quinn... and ****ing Ricky Stanzi. So far the Reid regime has replaced Cassel... with Alex Smith... and Quinn... with Chase Daniel... and filled a bunch of holes with uninspiring players. The Reid regime has made good on re-signing players, same as Pioli was. Pioli failed to re-sign Carr, but imo it was pretty obvious where Carr wanted to be. The Reid regime has another cornerstone player hanging in the balance that doesn't look to be around in KC much longer in Albert. All the same to me. Have to wait for the draft to come around. It all points to that 1 position that this team fails to legitimately address... |
Feel good! I can't wait till he actually gets out on the field and does what he does best... coach!
You would never know reading this board though... CP is full of people more capable than Reid/Dorsey apparently. I'm not as upset about the QB position as some as I think Alex Smith is the best option in a sh*tty draft class of QB's and FA QB's. |
Reid having fans follow him to another teams says a lot right there.
so far the major change for the good is that the front office is now making the players happy. Getting Bowe signed to a deal won the whole team over. |
It is still really early
|
Take a QB in round one and I'm good.
|
Dude he hasn't had so much as one draft yet. No opinion.
|
Ill let you know on Dec. 31st what i think of him.
|
So far...
All in all, done a great job so far with some areas that are pure "wait and see." |

Seriously, I like the Reid pickup, and I am excited to see what he can do for our offense. |
We are undefeated, so that's something.

The signing of Alex Smith and company has me on the edge already.
Everything else they have done has been decent except for the addressing of the QB/LT position. Alex Smith cant ****ing play. This concerns me. On the PLAY side of things I think the new coaching/training staff will improve the team. |
Quote:
Until I see what Reid and company do in the draft I am holding off judgment. Would love to see Geno Smith at 1.1, or a trade down to pick up more selections this year and next then grab Bray in the 3rd round. |
All it would take is for them to draft Geno Smith and I can be happy about the Reid hire. If not then same as it ever was same as it ever was.

so far he has a HUGE strike on the Smith deal with me. Almost to the point where it negates anything positive they'vfe done in FA.
they better come out of the draft looking like Emma Stone and not Sandra Oh (who might be the ugliest woman on the pl anet). If not, that's strike 2. if they come out of the draft w/out a potential QBOTF, ten that's 3. |
I'm excited. Andy has assembled a good staff. Although Alex Smith's stats are similiar to Cassie's, I hope Andy and the O staff can lean him toward overachieving. If he takes Geno, thats a great plus. Signing Bowe, thumbs up. Some of these FA's seem like filler but I'll give Andy the benefit of the doubt. Set the table, serve it up, build a winner. My rating right now is C+.

I concur. I almost don't even recognize her as a blonde.
Good lord I find her so yummy. |
Alex Smith.

JIMP if we go 3-13.

The Alex Smith debacle killed all the warm and fuzzies I had when we first brought him and Dorsey on.
2 very high 2nd round picks for a guy that probably would've been cut. If we don't bring in a prospect QB we can develop, preferably, but not necessarily, Geno - then **** em. |

I'm good so far, not great.
Too much to pay for Alex Smith, but if they can get out of #1 to recoup the cost that's a big win. NOBODY sees a legit QBOTF in this draft folks, but i'm in the camp we definitely need to try for a potential guy in 2nd or 3rd (this assumes we can move out of #1). Most of the other FA moves are positive, not spectacular. Filled and upgraded most every hole, and nobody seriously overpaid, so that's solid! |

The Eagles hired the guy I really wanted in Chip Kelly and I'm extremely excited for what he will bring. But Reid was a big part of my life as an Eagles fan. 14 years is a really long time to be a coach in sports. Young teens became adults and got married during the time he coached. If the Chiefs make it to a Superbowl I will root for Andy Reid unless it is against the Eagles :P |

meh ... talent level looks remarkably like it did last year.
The cornerback position is the only place where i see any significant improvement. Cross your fingers and hope that coaching makes a big difference |
I'm liking the new staff. I like that they want to start winning now, they went out and invested.
I think Alex Smith was by far the best option and every day branden albert opens his mouth, this staff looks sharper. I would like Geno because he is the best QB in this draft, but I'm okay with them going with another QB later in this draft -- to me, the important move is to get QB's in here now so that the young QB's can begin growing in this offense and competing for the starting QB position asap. I'm very happy they let the worst starter on this roster walk -- Glenn Dorsey has impeded this team for years. I like the CB moves very much -- the more smith's on this roster, the better :D Right now, I grade the new staff at a solid "B" and I expect this team to win at least 9 games 2013. |
How are you able to start a thread?
|
There is a button on the top of the page that said "new thread" and I clicked it.

Same lame moves as have been made for the last 30 years will bring the same lame results.... Blowouts if they make a playoff game. |
On the fence, ask again after the season. Not waiting again like the last time.

By merely removing Cassel and Quinn and their turnover tendencies and replacing them with someone who doesn't turn it over is a huge difference. Why do we have to hope this staff is an upgrade? Anyone with a pulse and who's watched at least a weekend of football knows it is. |
Quote:
The Chiefs have not signed Alex Smith long-term. They have not passed on any QBs in the draft yet. They have not made any indication that they refuse to find a young QB to groom behind Smith with the intention of him being the long-term starter. If Alex Smith is the best QB we come up with over the next 3 years, and it's because we didn't try, then yes. If he's a stopgap for a year or 2, I really could care less how many picks we gave up. |

Shitty year to get the #1 pick, but very excited about the upcoming season.
|
I think Reid is a very good HC that just became stale in Philly. After a long enough period of time, the players tune the coach out.
|
Alex Smith is a bummer and Bob Sutton is a concern.
EDIT: Alex Smith has only played two full seasons in 8. Chase Daniel has thrown less than 10 NFL passes(IIRC). |
I know for damn sure Reid is far more competent than our last 3 coaches.
|
This offense had the potential to be explosive even with Alex Smith in my opinion.
|
Haven't played a game yet so you can't really judge. Alex Smith doesn't have me hot and ready like a Little Caesar's pizza though to be honest. I have low expectations for this team because of the QB position. I'm hoping to be impressed and proven wrong by Reid.
|
Sofar, the only thing I question is the price they paid for Smith. I'd give them a B at this point.

Based on a lot of the moves the Chiefs made, it's seems like Reid/Dorsey got the directive that they need to start winning games fast and getting Arrowhead jumping again. If that's the directive, then Smith is the best choice for that. BUt that does not mean they are committed to Alex Smith as their long term QBOTF. |
Quote:
People want high lights. That's all they care about. They want the aerial show, even though the super bowl winning qb last year, threw 28 tds, and less than 4000 yards....... |
Quote:
In a QB-driven league where teams are moving to spread, the best QBs are throwing for 5,000 yards, and the top QBs are responsible for the majority of Super Bowl wins, our formula is for a 3,000 yard QB that wins with the running game and defense? I am fine with Alex Smith as a stop gap. He's not a long-term answer. I don't give a shit how many yards Flacco threw for in 2012. He won the Super Bowl because in the playoffs, he was making throws that only elite QBs make. |
We are now calling the first 3 months of a new job an "era"?
Let's get real.... |

Quote:
Yes, he was phenomenal in the playoffs. 11 tds, and 0 picks. Impressive. He still by the letter of the law, was a game manager that relied on Ray Rice, and his defense in the regular season....... Did he not? It takes a complete team around your FRANCHISE qb to win. The chiefs have a pretty decent team around Alex Smith now. |
Quote:
It doesn't take a complete team anymore to win a super bowl. Flacco won with one of the worst ravens defenses in recent memory. Brees had a horrible defense and an average supporting offensive cast. Same with Aaron Rodgers. The colts were a nightmare without Peyton, and Brady took a team with reche Caldwell and jAbar gaffney as starters to the AFc championship. |

no talk of candy wrappers, Cassel is gone, Pioli is gone, upgraded every coaching position and brought in decent talent to secure the base for this team. It will get better in years 2 and 3. The "era" is an improvement.

The Alex Smith trade is enough to make me stop watching. It will be years of damage to the team in terms of lost picks and uninspired play at the most important position in the game. So far, I am hating the Reid era. |
