Geno Smith fans roll call

[RealSNR]

NEW THREAD HEADER (11/17/12):

The list is gone. We will all be Geno Smith fans when he gets drafted by the Chiefs. For historical documentation's sake, I'll keep the list in a separate post on this thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=3314

WHY GENO SMITH?
If you're wondering if Geno Smith is right for you, check out this brilliant post by Saccopoo:

Next, we have a few GIFs you may be interested in from the Oklahoma game. Insane potential. These are the elite throws that very few QBs can make. What more can I say? Geno Smith can be a franchise QB in the NFL, and the Chiefs need to take a shot on him.

GIF #3 (My favorite):

HOW DO WE GET HIM HERE?

Glad you asked. I posted this checklist earlier. It probably belongs in the thread header, and will be updated as the Chiefs close out their season and start a new chapter in their franchise story.

Preparing for Geno Smith's Arrival In KC Checklist

1. [X] Lose games and acquire the #1 overall pick
2. [X] Get Pioli and the Patriot Way cronies the **** out
3. [X] Hire new GM/coach

OPTIONAL (but highly recommended):
4. [ ] Re-sign/tag Bowe, who really wants to play in KC with Geno
5. [ ] Re-sign/tag Albert

Don't buy into the hype.

These are the defenses Geno has played this year. This list does not almost complete his transition to the NFL.

Definite bust

[RunKC]

OK Geno buffs, I obviously didn't watch the guy 3 years ago, so can anybody tell me what kind of offense Geno played in before the spread? Was it a pro style offense or a mix of pro style snaps with the spread?

I have been to enough MU/KU games and have seen some pretty high profile collegiate athletes take it on the chin. You want to be the number one overall pick and you are throwing up a gang sign because a drunk stranger is heckling you come on. You are the leader of your team act like it. The fact that you continue to defend him is mind blowing. If he can't handle the pressure of a college fan heckling then I truly find it hard to believe he will find success in the NFL. THERE ARE OTHER QBS than a gang sign flashing thug.

Couldn't agree more. I'm done with this guy.

All the Jay-Z retweets makes me think it is a Larry Johnson mult trying to get back into the NFL.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Cassel needs more snaps.

[MMXcalibur]

If we draft Geno, I'm getting his jersey.

Have to go all in here.

Both are from Miami.

Let me take this time to congratulate you for your impeccable foresight regarding Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Just watched most of the video through 3 quarters and these are the negatives I saw.

Throwing off his back foot multiple times. Just can’t do that in the NFL or you’ll get picked off.

20:35 4th down-Very obvious blitz in the A gap by the LB. He should know that he has to get the ball out quickly because he won’t have time. He had his WR at the top left in single coverage and should have made the quick pass to him. Furthermore, he has 17 seconds left on the clock to snap the ball. If he would have done a hard count he would have seen the other LB preparing to blitz and could have changed the play, but he didn’t read this play well at all. He has to work on this.

30:23-Needs to set his feet use the proper technique when he throws. He launched his whole body into that throw while on the run which made it a really ugly pass.

45:45-WR wide open on the far left side. Geno didn’t even see him because he locked onto his first read (Tavon Austin) who was in triple coverage. This is what I was talking about. He needs to go through his progressions. OL gave him plenty of time to do that as well.

Said his big negatives were locking onto his first read and not reading defenses well at the LOS. Those plays I highlighted emphasize those points.

It can be improved, but it is a cause for concern, whether people will admit it or not.

EXACTLY. If the Chiefs didn't need a QB in the worst possible way, most here wiuld see Smith for what he is.
