Not sure. I may have talked myself into Matt Cassel back then, but I don't remember. I also chastised a lot of members for bashing Pioli before the Chiefs even played a game in 2009. I've learned from those mistakes.
We had little film on Cassel. He played a good 5 game stretch to end the year in New England out of the spread offense.
I've seen Alex Smith the last two years...he has better mechanics, he has great short accuracy, and he has good mobility and his pocket awareness has improved since Harbaugh became his coach.
Andy Reid is also good with QB's.
It's ridiculous. Alex Smith was the #1 overall pick for a reason. He has talent. He always had talent. His shoulder injury limits his arm strength now no doubt. He is better than Matt ****ing Cassel.
and again, you guys are all acting that, since I'M BEING OBJECTIVE, I'm advocating Alex Smith as our franchise QB.
That couldn't be further than the truth. I want Geno as much as anyone. It's time for our franchise to get an enema and Alex Smith is just the same old shit that simply doesn't excite me in the least.
I'm just not going to slit my wrists and cry about something that
A) hasn't happened and
B) doesn't mean anything since we all knew we needed two QB's to begin with
so if the deal does go down and we trade a conditional 4th for Alex and then take Geno #1 then I think that is an absolute INCREDIBLE win for KC and for Dorsey/Reid/the fans
but if it's Smith/Joeckel then the new regime has a full count already and if we don't make the playoffs/win a game/and show we are primed for some sort of run in the future with Alex Smith as our QB1 then sign me up for the next regime change, thank you
