Geno Smith fans roll call

[RealSNR]

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:

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 #2:

GIF #3 (My favorite):

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

Seems to be retweeting lots of doubters.

Barkley has 80,000 followers. This account of Geno's has 4,000. Doesn't seem legit to me.

This Geno account is having a conversation with Aaron Murray so I am assuming its the real one.

The god tweets make me think it's real. I might email their PR dpt this week and see if it is.

Check out the link I put in my last post. I think that's the real one.

Look at the depth and speed of his drop back. Lovely. Excellent footwork during the dropback. Nice find.

I think I literally felt my dick move watching that GIF. Less than a week left.

True but that account hasn't posted since July, if I read it correctly.

Good point. I still think that the real Aaron Murray responding to him points to it being real. Maybe he stopped when the season started. IDK.

I don't either.

But god ****ing dammit, I'll get to the bottom of this. Their PR dpt is going to have an email dated at 2 30 AM on Christmas ****ing day asking the verification on Geno's twitter.


Okay, maybe 3AM

The fact is, the majority of coverages Geno will see are going to be similar to the ones seen in college (Cover 1, C3, C2, Tampa 2 (rarer in college), Quarters, Cover 0 blitzes (pro styles blitzes).

The coverages that I can currently think of that he hasn't seen a lot of and won't even at the Senior Bowl is C3 fire-zone concepts (rushing 5 and dropping 6, exceptionally creative at the pro level) especially out of base fronts, c0 blitzes, C6, and most importantly, the speed of the pro game.

For example to the last point, in college against C2, you typically have quite a large gap on 9s(fly/go routes) on the edge due to the corner dropping and the safety either being slow or slow to react (the larger hashes make a difference as well). WHile that window is typically there in college, it is much smaller (safety quicker to close and corner usually being able to get a good jam and force an inside release as well as being able to stick with to a deeper depth due to diffent philosophies taught at the pro game vs. college).

To me, the speed of the game is a much more difficult aspect Geno or any competent drafted QB will have to learn than different coverages.

Me gusta.

Not only that, but after 2 consecutive rookie QB's broke the rookie single season passing record. Not only will he come in with something to prove, but a target to aim for.
