Geno Smith fans roll call
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: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=5388 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 #1:

GIF #2:

GIF #3 (My favorite):
Spoiler!
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 Last edited by RealSNR; 01-04-2013 at 12:32 PM.. |

Yeah, at first I didn't want the tanking just for a player, but everyone knew we have been a good QB play away from being able to compete in the division, let alone win a playoff game and really need a top QB to get us there. Imagine if Pioli would have had the balls to tank it last season? Had the foresight to know the top QB since whenever would be coming out of college and stocking up draft picks for a true building season draft. Especially since we were set up with losing a coach mid season.
Indy fans found out how important a top QB is when Manning went down. They went through 1 lousy season and now they have a top QB again. Boo hoo. If we are going to lose again anyway we might as well go all in. Everyone knows this team doesn't have the one thing every playoff looking team has and needs. A QB away. I say it is Geno Smith. Still pretty early, but to me he looks the best out of everyone. Often compared to RG3 which seems to be a very good thing so far. I also say we need a new coach. Maybe Romeo can go back to defense? It is important to get a coach that is going to get the most out of the most important position-QB. The new Chiefs Way should look a lot like how the 49ers did it. A former 1st overall pick, Alex Smith, looked too much like Cassel under defensive coaches Nolan and Singletary, and clashed with both coaches. It wasn't until they brought in the perfect QB fix-Jim Harbaugh, that they have brought out the most in their QB. We don't want to take 6 years to see such results. Harbaugh is even in the huddle making sure that offense is run right. Another thing to note with Harbaugh, the former QB with family coaching genes also has the team with argueably the best defense in football. He lets his defensive coordinator, Vic Fangio, whom he brought from Stanford, coach the defense and it works very well. Point is we don't have to get a defensive guy to have a top defense. Hope this team does what it hasn't since 1983, and does it right this time. |

I am but I hate to sound like a QB snob when we haven't been good at the position in years. Just draft one in the first round is all I say. Even if he's not #1 on your board. Dalton wasn't the top rated QB on the Bengals' board but they drafted one anyway because they needed one. We're in the same boat. The draft is a crapshoot anyway. The way things are going so far you'd think the stars are aligning. It's up to our Chiefs though to pull the trigger.

I was on the fence for awhile, but I'm now on the Geno Smith bandwagon.

Oh, and the anti-Cassel play from Geno:
http://mobile.sbnation.com/2012/9/22...-to-next-level Helmet ripped off, looks back downfield, let's the ball fly and gets slammed below the knees. Still working to make the play. Stud. |

Yeah it is.
There isn't any curling into a fetal position here. Throws off the defender who's got his helmet in his hands, squares himself up, immediately the head goes up, eyes down field, finds a target and the ball is out in a nanosecond before the next guy clips him in the knees. Bad ass indeed. |

Count me in. He doesn't have the best foot work but like his arm and toughness.

Down game overall for the Mountaineers, but Geno still looked good!
