It is those people who bring about all of the childish hate and misery to this site.

If that's how they want it? that's how they will get it. Seems they can dish it, but when it comes to taking it? it's all "boo-hoo! GTFO, you're an idiot! I hate you... oh, but I don't care!" lolz
It's not that I (and many others) think the Chiefs are incapable of having a good year. It's not that I (and many others) think Alex Smith isn't one of the 32 best QBs in the NFL.

It's that the Chiefs 'good year' has a pretty hard cap and would require Alex Smith ELEVATING his game at age 30, after MANY seasons in the league to be much more. 10-6 doesn't really qualify as a good year around here. 8-8 sure as hell doesn't, and neither does 9-7. A 'good year' would be one in which the Chiefs actually have a chance at going deep in the playoffs and doing something that can be built upon.

It's that Alex Smith is somewhere around the top of the second division/half of starting QBs in the NFL.

And that's not good enough to go where we all want the Chiefs to go... which is pretty sad considering how much they gave up for him.
