49er fan here (don't shoot me)
Just wanted to say that although many are speculating that the Chiefs overpaid for Alex Smith (you'll have to nevermind the trolls. No life with an obsession for a sport with a 7 month off-season will get you some pests), you should know KC is getting a high quality QB. He is more than capable of winning games in the NFL. A 2nd and a conditional pick in next years draft just acquired a top 15 QB in this league. The main contingency on KC being competitive this year I think is how Reid is and where he's at mentally (ie, is he burnt out or not).
I am sad to see Smith go, its the end of the most controversial era in recent memory for us 49er fans. For better or worse, Alex Smith has been SF's QB for the last 8 years. I knew once Kaep took over that this would happen soon though. If you guys keep Bowe and get more production from your defensive front, I think the Chiefs are set to make things interesting in the AFCW. I said last year that the Chiefs looked like they were suffering from Mike Simpletary-syndrom: good players in place suffering the horrific effects of bad coaching. Hopefully getting a QB you can trust is a good step.
Good luck! And please, smack around the Broncos for us 49er folk.
