The defense has absolutely NOTHING to do with Smith. Hell, he puts them back on the field entirely too much and puts far too much stress on them by not generating enough points. |

Alex didn't suck at all when he "lost" his job. Matter of fact, he had just come off being the NFC Offensive player of the week and had one of the greatest statistical games in the history of the game as far as completion percentage was concerned, and at the time of being hurt, was 25-27 for 300+ yards and 4 tds. Second. Okay. Cool. Yeah, the defense was TALENTED last year too. But, if your qbs were the same as last year, and still turned the ball over 37 times, the defense would of been considered average at best. A lot of that IS on Alex Smith. Again, you aren't going to agree with me. You are barricaded in your corner with your HEELS dug in. I have three years of PROOF to back up what you are trying to force on people as an opinion.

The defense is good enough on its own, it can do its part if put in bad situations.
We can't get like last year in terms of turnovers, but I think we need to, hope and think we will open up he offense more and try and score more points, being more aggressive |

Smith puts the D in a good position because he facilitates the punt. Welcome to KC. |

Just like that goal-line stand in the Texans game. Man did that pump me up.

His ability to not turn it over. And ill say this again. For opposing offenses, it has to be EXTREMELY disheartening after a Colquitt punt to look up, and see they have to go 80+ yards to score. As opposed to last year, the Chiefs gave the ball away like a child molester giving away candy. Is Alex Smith great? Hell no, he would barely on most days be passable as above average. But, the plus turnover ratio, has to be considered. Check all the losing teams in the league right now. Most of them have HUGE negative turnover ratios.

Alex Smith is just another retread QB and has been treated like one from some people from day one... I've said all along that there's a shitload of evidence stacked against him, which means I'm not going to act like I don't know how it's ended all of these years... but at the same time, he'll have plenty of chances to create his own ending and plenty of opportunities to win over the skeptics. And hell, I'd say 'of course he doesn't have the same luxury as Joe Montana when it comes to fans rationalizing away bad games'... but, that's not even true. And yeah, no one will really know one way or the other until they play some legit contenders, but some are so desperate to push their agenda, that a few games against shitty teams might as well be playoff games.

Even if god forbid the Chiefs won the super bowl this year, and Alex Smith was the MVP of it, if the Chiefs had a legitimate qb they would of BLOWN out whoever they beat, rather than just winning by 4 points. It is the way it is. That's NEVER going to change. How any Chiefs fan could go from disappointed by a 2-14 season, to trading two 2nds for a back up, to drafting a RT #1 overall to 7-0 and being upset by anything, and feeling ENTITLED to do so, is why this sport is great. From the outhouse to the pent house. With the amount of BITCHING on this forum, two things are clearly evident. people are missing out on an EPIC defensive showing, one that was thought to be dead in todays modern NFL, and two that people are never happy regardless of the situation.

How, exactly, are we missing out on the epic defensive showing if we watch each game and often more than once?

If you can appreciate it, then that's GREAT because it is SPECIAL. Best defense I have seen since 2000. And the 49ers defense of 2011 WAS SPECIAL. This one is better.

Just a decade ago this forum went from 'Trint' to loving the guy, and that team didn't even win a playoff game. And if you've ready anything on this thread in the past month, people have said over and over and over that they simply want to see Smith consistently compete with the big boys, much less win a SB. And FFS, how the hell would you know how people here would react if the Chiefs won one playoff game, much less a SB, when the board didn't exist the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game? It's been TWENTY ****ING YEARS and you don't think Chiefs fans aren't desperate to buy into a great quarterback? Come on, man...

If you are part of the contingent that have convinced themselves that it's all already useless because we're never going anywhere anyways because Alex going to Lin Eliot it up in the playoffs, you're at least missing some part of it.
