It's easy to get attached to a try-hard slapdick who wins games 17-13.

No thanks

I watched it yesterday. A great watch well worth it.

I just don't give a shit enough to watch it. I put in hours of evaluating Geno Smith but I can't be bothered to look at my teams new shitty QB. Why? Because I am out of hope. I am beyond consolable. I am literally emotionally distraught right now. **** you Alex Smith. **** you Andy Reid. **** you John Dorsey. **** you Clark Hunt.

**** this shit.

I only made it through the first 10 minutes.

The first 10 minutes had nothing to do with Alex Smith and everything to do with Harbaugh.

Thoroughly uninterested in learning anything about this guy right now. Maybe later.

HC_Chief · 02-27-2013, 04:45 PM

Wow, 26 minutes of suuuuuuuuuuck. Sounds about right for one half of every game Alex Smith has started.

**chefsos** · 02-27-2013, 04:50 PM

Is it wrong that I kind of wish for Alex Smith to get busted for DUI or steroids or tax evasion or third world genocide or child porn or something before March 12?

Chiefs acquire QB Alex Smith from 49ers for 2nd-round and conditional mid-rounder
Jim Harbaugh is a genius. Alex Smith was considered to be a candidate for release when Harbaugh took over as head coach of the 49ers. However, Harbaugh claimed that he was a fan of Smith's when the Utah product entered the league. Harbaugh then coached him up and turned him into a solid starter. It was obvious though that Smith would never lead the 49ers to a Super Bowl because of his limitations. That's why Harbaugh made the obvious choice to go with Colin Kaepernick.

Well, it was obvious to everyone except the Chiefs. This is an absolutely terrible trade for them. Smith, without Harbaugh, is a pedestrian signal-caller at best. He'll regress without Harbaugh, just as Matt Cassel did when he lost Charlie Weis. Andy Reid has been good with quarterbacks, but he's no Harbaugh.

It's true that Kansas City didn't have many other options at quarterback, but Smith is just a short-term stop gap until Andy Reid acquires a legitimate franchise quarterback. With that in mind, why didn't the Chiefs just pursue Matt Moore in free agency? He's just as good as Smith and would have been much cheaper. More importantly, he wouldn't have cost Kansas City a valuable second-round draft pick.

Based on PFCentral's report, I gave the Chiefs a C when it was speculated they gave up a third-rounder for Smith. But a second this year and a mid-rounder next year? What a joke. Again Harbaugh deserves all of the credit for duping a team into thinking that Smith is a solid starter. He's not. Andy Reid must have lost his mind. The Chiefs will continue to struggle for a long time.

Meanwhile, the 49ers now have 15 draft picks, including Nos. 31 and 34. They obviously can't keep all 15 because that's too many rookies. They're obviously plotting some sort of trade. The two strongest possibilities are for Percy Harvin and Darrelle Revis. Both would fill the 49ers' second- and third-greatest needs (see 49ers team needs here.) They may also want to move up for someone like Sheldon Richardson or Sharrif Floyd, should either fall into the bottom half of the top 10.

Grade for Chiefs - F
Grade for 49ers - A+
