That should be Alex Smith's last game on the Chiefs.

[JakeF]

The rest of the season doesn't matter. Cut Hali and DJ, move on and start fielding offers for Alex Smith. This game leaves a positive image of Alex Smith for the rest of the league. You can spin it as the team gave up but Alex is still good while you're talking trade for him.

Probably fire Sutton too and give an interim guy a look.

[RobBlake]

Wrong.

[TLO]

Stupid ass thread.

[BryanBusby]

It won't be.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Alex was good today, but there really is no reason to leave him out there. His trade stock jumped up a little today, and we aren't making the playoffs.

[JakeF]

Wrong.Right

[Iconic]

Did too much to be benched unfortunately.

[Kman34]

Over 300 YDs and 4 TDs....no way Andy benches him....I wish it would happen but you're dreaming..

[JakeF]

Alex was good today, but there really is no reason to leave him out there. His trade stock jumped up a little today, and we aren't making the playoffs.Exactly, this gave the value for Alex Smith a bump today. No reason to send him out there anymore.

Any veteran that isn't part of the big picture can have a seat.

[New World Order]

Give Mahomies some reppers

[Eleazar]

Alex Smith played one of the best games of his career today. Give me a break.

[Yosef_Malkovitch]

Sounds good to me. 4 TD's, no INTs, great last game before shopping him around.

But it won't happen. He'll start next week.

[Kman34]

Actually played well enough to win but the defense is a abortion right now...let a 56 year old QB beat us

[Danguardace]

Not going to happen if the Chiefs Run the Table they make the post season.

Reid is not going to give up on the season (even though he probably should)

[Hammock Parties]

It won't be.

MVP Alex is back and we got a major shindig with the Chargers for 1st place!

[Prison Bitch]

Why? He was great today. Nearly 500 yards of offense and 0 TOnisnt good enough for you, retard?

[kcpasco]

Smith was fine this game. Still choked when it mattered though.

[Marcellus]

Should be simply because we are spinning our wheels at this point.

Wont be.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Why? He was great today. Nearly 500 yards of offense and 0 TOnisnt good enough for you, retard?

He's not suggesting they sit him because he was bad. The point is this team is going nowhere, might as well get the rookie some experience.

[Marcellus]

Why? He was great today. Nearly 500 yards of offense and 0 TOnisnt good enough for you, retard?

So? What is to gain to keep starting Smith at this point?

[dirk digler]

Over 300 YDs and 4 TDs....no way Andy benches him....I wish it would happen but you're dreaming..

yup

[Deberg_1990]

December 31st 2017 will be his last game

[lcarus]

It won't be.

[Discuss Thrower]

This year was not the time to draft a QB that looked capable of starting week 1.

They should have done that three years ago with Carr who looked promising but could have been defensible to bench him behind Smith and Daniel for at least two seasons.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Hell, it would be best for Alex to be benched now for himself. Saves him the embarrassment of being replaced due to poor play.

[MMXcalibur]

I want to see Mahomes as well, but today wasn't on Alex.

[Molitoth]

Typical Alex Smith. When the heat is on his job, he stops playing like a pussy.
But we all know what he will revert back to once the pressure gets back to the defense.

[Otter]

Someday you're going to die
Trump is president of the United States of America until at least 2020
Alex Smith is the starter for the Kansas City Chiefs until the last gave of 2017

Reality people, accept it.

[Discuss Thrower]

I'm sure sorter can come along and debunk me here, but most of the big passes he had today were quick strikes off one read.

Which is fine when you're dealing with the likes of Kelce and Hill, but eventually it's going to get figured out.

[Red Dawg]

Won't happen no matter what. Smith ride or die.

[ARROW2]

6-10 and no playoffs upcoming. Coulda did that shit with a rookie.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

Bench Alex while his trade value is back “up”.

[Discuss Thrower]

6-10 and no playoffs upcoming. Coulda did that shit with a rookie.

Well, we're gonna see that next year...

[Easy 6]

Let Smith ride it out with this shit roster, have the kid start fresh next year with a revamped team

[stevieray]

Not.

why not get it out of the way now if that were true?

[Discuss Thrower]

Let Smith ride it out with this shit roster, have the kid start fresh next year with a revamped team

That's fantasy.

Kelce, Hill and Hunt are the only offensive players sans the QB position that aren't replacement level.

The defense is entirely replacement level beside Peters (who has a distinct inability to tackle) and Houston (who is paid way too much money).

They have to find over a dozen new starters.

[Discuss Thrower]

why not get it out of the way now if that were true?

I don't disagree with you but they crossed that Rubicon the second they decided to draft Mahomes but still play Smith.

[bigjosh]

Nope, the calls for Mahomes have been culled now, because the cuck finally hit some of his wide open receivers down field.

Next week, when we lose the division, is 11s last week as the captain of checkdowns.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

It won't be. No chance he gets benched with 440 total yards and 4 TDs. Morons. Yes, I'm ready for Mahomes, simply stating it's not happening.

[Easy 6]

We have the draft, and will soon have a huge pile of free agent cash

Big changes can be made this offseason

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Probably should, but it's not going to happen. Eric Fisher should be replaced tomorrow, but his contract is going to prevent that.

[Discuss Thrower]

A lot of things *can* happen.

It's not likely.

It took four years to assemble the overall best top to bottom organization through the draft which lead to the 2013-to present (kind of) Seahawks.

How many guys from the 2011-2013 draft are still on the roster?

[Eleazar]

Do you guys really think they are going to make a change when they're "fighting for the division lead" (ha) and after Alex played very well today? You're nuts. CHunt and Reid will not sacrifice their precious wild card appearance.

[OKchiefs]

He's not suggesting they sit him because he was bad. The point is this team is going nowhere, might as well get the rookie some experience.

Most people on here appear too dumb to realize that.

[kcpasco]

So much dead weight being lifted next year. Goodbye DJ Tamba and Alex.

[Bearcat]

Not.

Why, don't want to risk that potential playoff win against some shitty team in the first round?

[JakeF]

I want to see Mahomes as well, but today wasn't on Alex.Never said it was on Alex. This is about the coaches losing the players, this year is a mess. What are we going to gain this year by playing Smith? We should use the rest of this year to get Mahomes some experience so that he is more prepared next year. This is about Alex Smith's trade value being on the uptick. Big picture time, sit any veteran that isn't going to be with us much longer and move on.

[Couch-Potato]

ummmmm...what?! He had a stellar day.

[Halea41]

It’s time to bench Alex Smith. I’m 100 percent sure Patrick Mahomes can throw to a Ridiculously WIDE OPEN Tyreke Hill. Alex smith did very little actual quarterbacking today in terms of keeping plays alive, extending drives and helping the defense rest a little. He made a few fluky one-throw splash plays to make himself look better when in fact it was all tyreke Hill.

[Katie]

Defense lost us this game today. You're fooling yourself to believe otherwise

[Rasputin]

I think Patrick should play but after today Alex Smith played good enough keep his job until we are mathematically eleminated from the playoffs and we could be in it to last game.


This season blows. I've said it's a throw away season.

[farmerchief]

Do you guys really think they are going to make a change when they're "fighting for the division lead" (ha) and after Alex played very well today? You're nuts. CHunt and Reid will not sacrifice their precious wild card appearance.
Would be fitting, if by some miracle they would make the playoffs and host a game, no fans should show up.

[farmerchief]

It will never happen, but Mahomes needs to play to get some experience. Then next year, he won't have so long of a growing curve. Everyone knows we're not going anywhere this year

[Pasta Little Brioni]

The defense dug the grave

[Hammock Parties]

The defense dug the grave

And Alex fell right into it. ROFL

This thread proves that KC has some of the dumbest fans in the NFL.

If they dont win the division, there is no playoffs..there are 2 teams sitting at 7-4 now in wild card.
Winning the division and getting curb stomped means we are stuck again with Reid and his clown show.
This team does not deserve playoffs

[OKchiefs]

Read the damn thread. He never said this game was on Alex.

[DaneMcCloud]

The rest of the season doesn't matter. Cut Hali and DJ, move on and start fielding offers for Alex Smith. This game leaves a positive image of Alex Smith for the rest of the league. You can spin it as the team gave up but Alex is still good while you're talking trade for him.

WTF?

The Chiefs aren't going to cut guys with 5 games left, nor can they "take offers" for Smith.

JFC.

[CoMoChief]

Fire Sutton

Go back to 4-3. 3-4 is out-dated in today's game.

Trade Justin Houston. He's useless now, he'd be useless in the 4-3. Get what you can out of him.

Cut Hali, DJ, Gaines, and Mitchell on def. I'd say trade Peters, but the Chiefs need someone at CB that can play. It's probably best to let him play out his rookie deal and then let him walk. During that time Chiefs should invest heavily in CB's via draft or FA.

I'd cut Colquitt post 6/1/18, would result in $0 dead money.

On offense, trade Alex Smith.

Defense needs a complete overhaul in their secondary.

[BryanBusby]

The 3-4 is outdated LMAO

And lets cut a FA

Sounds good to me........

[PAChiefsGuy]

No one is going to trade for Justin Houston with that contract of his and how he has played this season... So forget that. He'll have to get cut or restructured... Peters is still on his rookie contract. I can deal with his headaches for how cheap he is. He's still a very good player...

I'm up in the air with Sutton. On one hand I don't think he is very good because he seems to slow to make adjustments and he puts J Houston in coverage too much. On the other hand I see a real lack of talent on D. Our secondary wout Berry is simply garbage and we have no elite pass rushers or LBs. It doesn't even matter when J Houston rushes anymore it seems like he can never get pressure anyway.

Not sure it would matter who our DC is. I think we'd get lit up regardless.

[Aspengc8]

only thing that really bothered me today about alex is a few of the underthrows, then that 4th and 5 to end the game where reek was wide open and he forced it in kelces direction

[Pablo]

We're riding this year out with Alice and Andy baby! There's a really exciting .500 finish in our grasp and Alex is the captain of this jon boat, so deal with it!

[DaneMcCloud]

Go back to 4-3. 3-4 is out-dated in today's game.

[O.city]

They are gonna need all the picks they can get to re took the team so they need smith to continue or start playing well

What is a guarantee of anything?

They need to shed old vets and get younger and transition for the next guys. More picks will help that

[DaneMcCloud]

What is a guarantee of anything?

I'm just stating that trading Smith for picks, which should be the move, doesn't mean anything unless Veach actually acquires talent for said picks.

Dorsey's recent drafts haven't netted much talent, which is why the Chiefs are in their current predicament.

Dee Ford, oft-injured Mitch Morse, the Keivarie Russell disaster, etc. and so on.

Yeah the lack of draft talent has torpedoed the defense . It got old and expensive fast

I think they need a big defensive shakeup. The message ain’t working

The Raiders and Chiefs ought to just let the Chargers grab the division. Neither team has played up to expectations.

[Warrick]

Fire Sutton today, and get Mahomes ready to play for next week. The Chiefs need a fire lit under them, these last few games shouldn't of even have been close with how weak the schedule has been the last 3 weeks. There's no since of urgency to beat teams early other than today, and if we're down in the 4th quarter you might as well consider the game over with the crew we have now.

[kcpasco]

Putting up 54 on the Bills and 28 at the Cowboys (without their kicker) were poor wins.

LMAO

They're also 6-2 in their last 8 while the Chiefs are 2-6 in that same timespan.

You've lost it, Dude.

[nkd]

They need to really school some players. At that professional level you don't fail so hard. This team is missing leaders on the defense. Eric Berry is highly missed I think. You have over ego'ed players messing around and disrespecting the game and hurting their team mates.

Andy needs to let the defensive leaders that are out right now go in and give these guys some schooling.

That shit should not happen!

And I still can't believe buttkicker missed a 38 yard field goal. Its like when Alex starts throwing bombs we fail everywhere else lol.

I do think Sutton has lost the defense. Andy needs to part ways with him soon.
