Alex Smith is not a game winner. We all know this. We knew this back in March.
The Chiefs are absolutely a playoff caliber team, because they have enough pieces on both sides of the ball.
I, for one, am capable of compartmentalizing my dissatisfaction with our quarterback situation and my relief and joy of having a QB who is capable enough to not lose us games and, if not lead, then shepherd us to victory.

If by "right now" you mean a rebuilding year after complete ineptitude then yes.
If by "right now" you think we can win a playoff game I completely disagree...
