if we end up with YET ANOTHER vet QB castoff, then this has been a waste, and clark has learned nothing, and we're truly ****ed forever

I said this in another thread. Clark is not qualified to choose the QB for the Chiefs. He hired the guy who was best qualified. Don't hang Clark if we don't draft a QB. Hang the walrus. It's his choice, and his choice alone. Other than that, I agree with you wholeheartedly. We don't want Jerry Jones to run this franchise. I promise you that.

Clark can and should inform reid that he is drafting a QB

Words of wisdom...nuff said

They must draft Geno Smith, should sign an ALex Smith or trade for Flynn and have a qb battle in camp, with stanzi also getting his chance. SImple, no?

I agree with TC.

I am happy that Clark Hunt didn't sit around with his head up his ass, amd he went out and got the guy he targeted, even if he isn't the guy I would have hired.

I am happy that he finally canned Pioli to get it done.

But if Reid ****s around and doesn't take the best QB with the first overall, I am going to be pissed.

Milkman, can you explain to me, as a long time resident, why this place has such an enormous boner right now for Andy Reid?

The guy who assembled the 'dream team'. The guy who made his offensive line coach his defensive coordinator. The guy who signs players selfish players like Babin and Owens and expects them to be team first guys. The guy who grabs as many headlines for his personal life than his football success. The guy who's dominant unit (defense) was shouldered by another coach who is now dead. I can't stress that last one enough.

I mean I don't think Andy is the worst guy out there, but boy this place is ecstatic about it.

You'll have to ask the guys that are excited about it.

My excitement is only if we draft a QB with our first. I got hope we do so I am excited for the opportunity. My excitement can turn the other way pretty damn quick if we pass on a QB & miss out any of the three top. Geno Barkley or Wilson. I really want Geno Smith with our #1

Think of the class of 1983, how many QB's went before Marino? My concern is that if the Chiefs pass on the QB's in the first round/second round we could be pinning our hopes and dreams on an unknown. What are the chances of finding the one diamond in the rough that far down in the draft?

Because he's the best coach we've hired since Hank Stram?

Who would you have preferred? Ken whisenhunt? Lovie Smith? chip Kelly? Bill Cowher?

Wiz was #1 on my retread list. Yes. Lovie was on the bottom..

As for Cowher... I'm not sure I really see a big difference between the two except the strength of Cowher's unit was always Cowher's defense.

The strength of Andy's teams have always been Jim Johnson's defense.

I don't think he's awful, but wow you'd think we just hired Zombie Bill Walsh or something.

Yeah, he's never fielded an offense worth a shit.

Why would you want Whisenhunt? He's botched the QB position almost as bad as the Chiefs did. He needs to be a coordinator again.

As for the zombie Bill Wlash comment, there's a legit reason to be excited. The guy's resume is superior to every KC coach in the last 30 years not named Vermeil.

Reid was definitely the best we could have done this year. Anyone that thinks not is crazy. Cowher and Gruden are not coaching. Lovie and Ken have had not had the success Andy has. Clark did very good to get this done. Instantly we are relevent again.

I have never been an Andy fan-But considering the coaching choices and what a laughing stock this team is right now- Its the best choice. He wont have a powder puff camp like Haley and then gamble the game away. Andy won't have the deer in the headlights look like Romeo- He will get us to 8-8 next year and possibly a playoff win the year after. Safe Bet for sure.
