Chiefs Prediction time: When will Mahomes take over for Smith? - Page 16

jaa1025 · 10:55 AM

The likely organizational plan is/was for Mahomes to take over next season and cut/trade Smith to recoup some needed draft picks and cap relief.

I think, Mahomes has not only shocked the Chiefs fans with his play but has also shocked the staff. Because of this, Veech made a crafted statement about how far ahead Smith was of Mahomes. They don't want to rock the boat yet, but they know as we know. If Mahomes didn't show that he is ready then the Chiefs don't make the comment, because it's not needed.

I think the time table will be moved up and Mahomes will take over for Smith during the season...for good.

The Chiefs weren't going to start Mahomes vs the Pats because of there defense nor do I think they start him early in the season. Unless this team is 7-3 or better going into the Bills game, that is when Mahomes is taking over. It is a home game against a bad team. Then they play the Jets at NY after. This will give him 2 games against bad teams before a home games against the Raiders, Dophins and at the Broncos. Of course, this could all change with injuries...and it might be another concussion/non concussion situation to start this and see how he handles it.

In before the "this post belongs in the other Mahomes threads"-----There can never be enough Mahomes threads on this forum.

Edit: Added Poll, hindsight 20/20 I should have combined injury or waiting to start until 2020 because that's essentially the same.

Before the game, I said the offense needs to score atleast 30 points, no excuses. But having to score 30 every game is why we will not make the Superbowl.

Most college defenses are crap regardless of the conference. The SEC is just as weak outside of a few teams especially over the last several years. The ACC is a joke conference outside of Clemson and FSU.

Mahomes is ready. He was ready after the preseason.

The only downside to playing Mahomes now is that it will bring down Alex Smith's trade value this off season. That's it. Mahomes could do what Smith is doing now with a big chance of being better this season. It will benefit the Chiefs potentially this season but also next year since he'd have a half a season this season of starting.

Smith has returned to his old self for much of this season. He has added a few good throws a game but the offense has been struggling big time. The team needs a boost.

The headline is plenty sufficient viewing material for a good jizzing.

Trade a SB chance for a draft pick?

Indeed.

I look forward to watching these types of takes and stories begin to completely take over ALL Chiefs-related coverage.

A lot of fans here have unrealistic expectations but make no mistake, Smith has been outstanding overall this season and the team has done great so far considering the schedule. Smith deserves to finish the season and in all cases, it was always going to be Smith all season unless an injury occured. No Mahomes before next year.
