It seems that way but I bet that if the Chiefs drafted a franchise QB prospect this fan base would end up backing it in a big way. I think they really just want to back their team. Right now that means backing Alex Smith. And fans who say they'd rather have A. Smith over G. Smith would flip flop in a heartbeat.

I've stated it before....but I'm not pissed about Alex Smith. I'm pissed about what we gave up for him. If it was a 4th round pick and a conditional pick next year....it would've been fine. He's an average QB who has games where he looks above average but he's injury prone and he takes a lot of sacks.
If the Alex Smith trade causes us to pass on Geno and take a LT at 1.1 because he needs an all world offensive line to protect him and we didn't want a "QB controversy"....then Reid and Dorsey can go **** themselves. |

It's NOT hard to assess a situation after 1-2 full years of play. Either your team is going to rally around your QB, or they aren't. I knew Cassel was not good enough after watching him in year one. 2010 was gameplanning around his weaknesses, and even doing that couldn't get this team a playoff win. |

Trying is the same as potential. It'll get a coach fired.

I don't care if it's unrealistic or not.....but if we go 8-8 next year....it's a failure.
9-7 is the low mark for next year. |

Has there ever been anything the chiefs done that doesn't really agree with you? It just seems like you back and support everything they do because they are getting paid to do it. I'm not going to sift through 65 thousand of your posts, so I was just wondering if you wanted to say anything you haven't agreed with so I can see where you may be coming from in a different light. |

I thought Pioli should have kept Herm on for one more year after his youth movement to see what he could do with it, partly because it was so late in the coach hiring season and partly because I just thought Herm deserved a chance to see his plan though a bit. If, after that year, Pioli wasn't satisfied, I would have been onboard with a change and Pioli would have had plenty of time to find the right guy (which, we've since learned, he may have been incapable of doing in any event). I was never a fan of Elvis Grbac (I wanted them to sign Jeff George at the time). I didn't like it when they benched Rich Gannon or when they let him go in favor of Grbac, although I understood it on a financial level. I didn't care for the Dontari Poe draft pick because it seemed like it was pure need plus workout rather than high quality player based on college production. I hope I'm wrong about that one. I didn't like the Trent Green trade and after the first year I was ready to dump him. But mostly when I disagree with them, I don't jump to the conclusion that they're stupid. I wait to see how it pans out. I think I've been right about some things (e.g. Gannon and moving on from Cassel after year 3) and I may well have been wrong about others (e.g. Jeff George and Trent Green).
