He's unapologetically attached to Smith's ballsack.

I support the organization's decision to bring in a proven game manger for the right price. He's not Rodgers and doesn't get paid like a top QB at 22+ million a year. His contract over its 6 year lifetime with the Chiefs will average just over 14 mil a year (seeing how he was an 8 mil a year QB for us in each of 2013 and 2014). Even if you ignore that he's getting back paid for those 2 years, 17 mil/year is still a good price as by 2017 he will middle of the pack in cost when compared to other QBs.
Look at how much other teams like Chicago and Detroit are paying for train wrecks like Cutler and Stafford for $17/mil year long term in current NFL cap terms... the Chiefs got a very, very fair deal. Last edited by TigeRRUppeRRcut; 11-01-2015 at 10:24 PM.. |

But like I've been saying for some time now, Chiefs fans have QB mania, mostly because it's the ONLY thing in the sport left to wear out from tight virgin to weathered wizard's sleeve. Everything that goes wrong from defense collapses to rising parking prices goes straight to Alex. All his worst throws are judged, not against other QB's entire games, but 5 minutes of Sportscenter Top 10. This isn't Madden. You can't look at power ratings and know everything about how the program will play out. Everyone on the team is expected to wake up every morning striving to get better, THAT INCLUDES the GM being every vigilant for a better QB, or RB, or, or, or. THAT INCLUDES the QBs, the D, the lines, the coaches. You can't say everything on this team can and will improve, except this one thing. It's a synergy. They all lift each other up and bring each other down. I don't mind Alex weariness, I don't mind Alex pessimism. But this has metastasized into this stasis where people root for misfortune, downplay every positive development, pump up every opponent we haven't met, belittle every opponent we beat, and flatly state NOTHING can ever happen on the team that's positive until the one magical problem is obliterated. It's stupid. If being a Chiefs fan were merely the experience here, no sane person would continue. Fortunately I know; I'm still hoping the best for the team, No one there is listening to a word this place says Players are staying, working, and growing, and aren't going anywhere unless actual superior talent is unearthed by the front office.
