It's time for me to bow out. It's been almost 10 years, and I'm tired.

Tired of the false narratives. Tired of people arguing the poster instead of the post. Tired of discussing football with people who favor excuses over evidence. Tired of wasting time talking about an organization that hasn't won a playoff game in the lifetime of a college senior. Tired of watching other great posters leaving entirely or posting less, weakening the Football IQ this place was known for 5-10 years ago.

I know posting a thread instead of just walking away will open the door for many to take their cheap shots - we all know who they are - and if you don't, just wait. They'll show themselves. Those of you that know me privately know this has been building for a long time.

With all that said, I'll say what I've always said: This team has talent, but will continually fall short as long as they keep thinking you can win in the postseason consistently with average QB play. You don't put enough pressure on the opposing defense, and it puts too much pressure on your defense - if they don't have a near-perfect day, you lose.

Peters and Conley were great picks and should make an impact in the years to come. Should be fun to watch. (What? According to some, I NEVER say anything positive - just another false narrative) While I doubt he'll get his shot, I'd like to see if Murray can be that franchise guy, or if he fell for reasons other than what people here assume - namely, his height and injury history. Hopefully they get Houston signed long-term, because if they don't they are in deep, deep shit. The defense tends to carry this team, and Houston is the most important cog in said defense.

I've made a lot of great friends here that are still friends to this day, and will continue to be. This place was awesome when it was more community based - when there would be gatherings, tailgates, etc. Now, it's littered with trolls that take advantage of the anonymity of the internet and would never show their face in public. That attitude has weakened this place considerably, IMHO.

For those of you I call a friend, we'll be in touch. If anyone that isn't already a friend privately or on Facebook/Twitter wants to continue to keep in touch, I'll keep my PM's open for a week or so.

Thanks, Kyle. It was fun for a while. Queue the "well, bye/sour grapes" posts in 3...2...1.

That is Flacco from 2011 to present

When he wins a SB for the Chiefs.

What circus? That was 2011.

Name the true franchise QBs that have overcome a bottom 10 OL and WR corps, please. Can also add a defense that.. injuries or not.. collapsed in consecutive years.

It will always be a circus as long as the Hunts are in control.

Just entertaining enough to dupe the masses out of their recreational budget every year until they die from BBQ/Beer-induced obesity and diabetes.

Diabesity and the Chiefs...the traditional diseases of Kansas City.

Every time I hear the name "Joe Flacco," the first thing that comes to my mind is "was second string behind Tyler Palko at Pittsburgh prior to transferring."

Not that I wouldn't be at the very least, content with him under center. Still, I will always remember him as the guy who appeared out of place after Palko gave that memorable "I'm so ****ing proud of this football team" interview after defeating Notre Dame.

Tom Brady.

I'm sure you will say he is on another level and move those posts but I'm right

Shit thread title. It's another god damned QB circlejerk.

Well now, you are deflecting and playing dumb.

Give me some names. ONE name?

So Alex can't be on this list.. okay.. WHO can? Tom? okay maybe... anyone else? Even if not.. oh noez! Alex can't make a whole list of ONE QB that has overcome such circumstances?

.. and we truly don't even know how far the cheating corruption went with Tom. Did he really earn much on legitimate merit?
