Chiefs The constant negativity is tiresome. Who is ready to join me and move on? - Page 27

**BigRedChief** · 04:02 PM

I'm finding this constant negativity tiresome. We have sucked for years. We were an embarrassment. A big ****ing joke. I'm done with the negativity.

I wanted Geno. I think we overpaid for Smith. I'm scratching my head over some of their moves.

Reid and Dorsey obviously have a plan. For crissakes, Reid watched every down of every player for the whole ****ing year before he even met with Clark. I'm going to give them AT LEAST a half a season before I start calling them dumb-asses and screaming for their head.

I don't think I'm accepting mediocrity by choosing to not scream and yell and be totally pissed off by the moves so far. If you think so, you are entitled to you opinion.

I was an early and financial supporter of SOC. Season ticket holder for years. I think anyone would label me a hard core Chiefs fan. Just like most of the posters on this board. We deserve better than we have been given by our team. I will be a Chiefs fan until I become worm food. Lifes too short to go around pissed all the time. I did enough of that the last few years.

I'm going to chose to hope that Reid and Dorseys plan is sound and will result in the return of winning football and our first playoff win since the Montana era. Who's with me?

Here is what they should do if they are gonna take a tackle that high...I don't like it, but it's whatever.

Trade Albert to a team in the teens that needs a left tackle...hopefully for a mid to late first.
Trade down, adding a first next year.
Draft Fisher, Joeckel or Johnson.

Why? Just put the guy at RT, sign Albert and don't worry about it.

They were running the freaking pistol. The gimmick was getting them yards as much as anything Kaepernick himself did. Similar to the Thigpen gimick a few years back, albeit on a much higher level. Teams will figure that out. Kaepernick, I think, has a lot of growing left to do. I'm admittedly one of the few people not sold on him, however.

Also note how I'm in this thread, discussing something interesting (namely drafting a pass rusher earlier) instead of hopping on my soap box and trying to convince everyone everything sucks.

Or complaining about how happy everybody is in here.

You've been bitching about Alex Smith as much as anyone - in this thread and in a lot of others too.

I'm actually pretty surprised at the way you've been acting lately. I thought all these years that you were pretty level headed, but you have really gone off the deep end lately.

O.city · 03-14-2013, 10:30 PM

IMO, the reason alot of these rookies are doing what they are doing is the same reason Kaep was so good. It's a really simplified offense or atleast they start simple and work their way up.

I didn't realize I had to have your permission to have an opinion. I must've missed that memo.

Good stuff in theory, but they are in win-now mode. They can't trade Albert and be stuck with a rookie T on one side and an unproven T on the other side and still be in win-now mode.

Because he can run and thus adds another dimension to the offense. His running ability opens up the passing game.

'course we don't have anybody who can get him the ball down the field, so maybe he should be in the slot.

If Smith continues to be accurate on the short and intermediate routes, YAC is definitely a factor and Avery has the speed to make things happen.

I think some people are just genuinely stunned and disappointed in the move.....bitching is a way to process it......

Me - I'm nearly done bitching.....and I really hope the worry was/is unfounded......I would enjoy an 8-8 season, if it looked like we could keep improving....

CHIEFS!!

Because if they are set on taking a tackle, I'd rather have a first rounder than a high priced right tackle.

That also frees up another 10 million that can be used elsewhere.

A high priced RT? At 4.5 mil per year?

Look I know its "true" fan to say, but it's not a bad thing to heavily invest in the OL.
