sighs.

Still have to find a wr, and tight end.

Cant argue with what you said though.

we need to be great somewhere. Have to pick an impact aspect to our game.

Looks like receiver is where we have the chance to do it. Passing game is where the NFL is going. We have a QB that can throw the ball.

free safety on defense and big improvements for pass catchers on offense

I'm not sure Sutton would know what the hell to do with more players anyway.

He didn't choke when it was all on the line - the defense did.

Talent wise we're pretty set on defense with a few holes here or there. IMO it's Sutton's worthless chickenshit scheme that puts them in terrible positions. You just can't do what he did against the Colts and line up and play man all every single down without any adjustments at all. We literally blitzed twice in that game. Unacceptable.

On offense we have Charles and.. Alex? MAYBE Bowe? For all the praise he gets, Davis is only solid and is not a legitimate weapon or threat. We have no legitimate play makers on the outside that other teams have to game plan for. First and most important position they should address is WR (hopefully no throwaway 1st round picks like AJ Jenkins was for the 9ers) and then shore up the defense by getting a FS..

"Scheme" varies by definition but the philosophy or "scheme" of this defense is sound.

It's the play-calling and personnel groupings (or lack thereof) that hinder this team's success.

Yes, things went shit, but he couldn't maintain the lead while the Colts secondary was playing horribly also with the 28 point cushion.

Bring. It. On... no lie at all, if Alex cant handle this new schedule and crumbles beneath it, I will proudly stand before you and fall on thine sword.

But if Dorsey/Reid equip this guy the right way, I am completely comfortable with Axl at the helm... he's going to worry you a bit in the regular season, but I'm starting to to have faith in this guy to choke up on the bat a bit and get it done when it counts.

Alex doubters rejoice, next year will be the truest test of all....

System familiarity and new weapons vs a much tougher schedule... if he can get it done then, shut your whore mouths forever more.

44 points. 380 yards passing. 4 TDs. 57 yards rushing. 0 interceptions. He did just fine.

just fine didn't cut it, 28 point lead and he blew it.

Sorry, if your thought while watching that collapse was, Dammit Alex! You have a problem. The O did their job. The six points they scored in the final quarter and a half, shouldn't have even been needed. The fact the final drive stalled was just an after effect of the horrible day the D had, not the cause for the loss.

6 points in the last 6 drives wasn't exactly Greg Hollandesque either.

Trolling?

If not. Insane?

Things went to shit, Alex had the lead and couldn't save the team when they needed him to do it. Like Tom Brady does year in and year out.

Did we win?

So the fact the Chiefs didn't score 50 points really shows you how inept Smith and the O was?

No. What was the reason?

I'm just pointing out there was plenty of blame to go around. While the defense burned the offense stood around and watched them burn for nearly a half.

Absolute 100% pure bullshit. He did not blow it, the defense did. If you can't see that you are a lost cause. So invested in hating him that you can't see reality.

in the 1st half great, but the second half they shit the bed.

The team should have been able to knell on the ball on every possession for the rest of the game and still win. Epic D collapse.

28 point lead, and we lost. He choked simple as that, good enough didn't cut it.

No the didn't. They just didn't score every time they had the ball. The Colts did. Smith had a terrific game. All on the D.

Hatred blinders block the sun.

and the offense stalled during this period after the Alex fumble. The defense did generate 4 turnovers too BTW.

Did we win, despite that 28 point cushion?

You keep saying 28 point lead. Then concluding it was Smith that failed. It's like there's a piece of your brain that's missing or something.

And let Hilton run free for the entire second half.

Did we win? The offense did stall after the fumble, as I said in this very thread if the fumble didn't occur I truly think KC would've won the game.

That's bullshit.

In the playoffs, if you score 13 in either half, you did your job as an offense. Especially against an Indy defense that was good enough to shut down a lot of the high flying finesse the league has...while missing the offenses best player after 6 plays into the game...then lost its second best wideout and backup running back.

FFS, putting up 44 under those circumstances was nothing short of amazing.

Some don't like smith. Doesn't matter what he does.

The offense scored 13 points in the second half. Iirc, had they averaged that all year, that's a top 5 scoring offense.

If "doing enough" means you're asking your offense to score every possession or score 50 points to win, you probably need to re evaluate your football thinking.

Where did the cushion come from? How'd we score? Why'd it go away?

Hint-The answer is, because Smith couldn't move the offense, only if you are mildly reeruned.

While the offense didn't do shit when the the Colts secondary was playing horribly after the said fumble.

Thank you for recognizing one of the contributors of the loss.

So it's pretty convenient to use the win loss rhetoric now, but after a 9-0 start it was "gtfo" with that.

Yep we should have put Bowe in at free safety. You and the rest of you're minions are ****ing dipshits. Period.

Like this http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/201010...avens@patriots ?

Or maybe you're talking about this recent colts game he had where he had 0 touchdowns and less than 200 yards. Against the same team Alex had 300+ yards and 4 TDs on.

I truly think they win if a number of things happen. I truly think they win if the Colts are held to at least one FG in the second half instead of five TDs. I truly think they win if Charles doesn't go down on the opening drive.

Like with the game you ignore the important stuff.

Tribal, two questions.

How many teams have scored more than 26 points in a game this postseason?

How many teams have scored 44 total points this postseason?

Oh yeah one more thing....BCD can choke on a dick. ****ing TROLL.

"scoreboard, bitch. Alex is a winner" was the battle cry during the 9-0 start when Alex was leaning on the defense. Yet, with the 28 point cushion he couldn't pick up the slack when the defense was playing poorly. Shit, all he had to do was to score another TD to seal it. I'm nor going into the final drive BS, he had the whole 2nd half to lock it up.

We lost because the team is "cursed".

We lose every playoff game by what seem to be fluke instances...the problem is those flukes keep repeating over and over.

He did pick up the slack, he put up 44 points. I'm not sure how we've come to the point of putting this much blame on a qb after a game in which his offense scores 44 points

Again, we scored 13 in the second half.

If we only scored that much in each half (26 total) Alex did his job and that should be enough to win.

I'm disappointed that Sutton didnt get Lewis the **** off the field.

We didn't win, Alex didn't bail out the D like the Defense bailed him out during the 9-0 start.It sucks, but it's true. Alex should've kept shredding the Colts secondary due to their shit play, but didn't in the second half.

Uh huh. Our defense has no culpability. Really? You are being a ****ing idiot.

He did not choke. You are delusional.

Yet, KC was one in done. "good enough" didn't cut it.

Dude, he should've maintained considering how bad the Colts secondary was playing.

He did bail out the D, by giving them a huge lead. They chose to not keep it.

How many quarterbacks lose when their defense gives up 30+ points?

Answer: The VAST majority of them. Since you brought up Brady, lets look at his game log. When his defense gives up 30+ points, he's 9-16. In the playoffs, he's 0-2.

You're a dumbass.

the offense chose not to maintain and keep it either. It goes both ways

Offenses fault for not scoring 50.

If 44 points and a 28 point lead in the 3rd quarter aren't enough to lock it up it is not the QBs fault.

The offense scored 8 times in a playoff game, but it's their fault we lost /tribal

We need to get a mod in here to change his name to Troll Warfare.

The o went into a shell in the second half, as well they should. The fools. They expected the D to hold the lead.

scoreboard, again it sucks but it is what it is. Hell if "good enough" is all it takes KC would've won at least 3 SBs in the past 20 years but at times you need to be exceptional. This was one of those instances

He is so emotionally invested in his hatred of Smith and the fact that we didn't draft a QB at 1.1 he is incapable of seeing reality.

Montana was 5-12 when his defense gave up 30+ points. 0-3 in the playoffs.

Guess he sucks too.

GET THIS MAN SOME BUTTER, HE IS ON A TROLL!

The coaching, field awareness of the players and play calling were horrendous after we got the lead.

The coaches made no efforts to run the ball and control the clock
Guys were catching the ball and running out of bounds
The defense we called was sad, no adjustments to the limited gameplan Indy had at all
Kendrick Lewis and Dunta Robinson

Faulting Alex Smith is just dumb.

Smith WAS exceptional. 44 points, 4 TDs, 380 yards, 57 yards rushing, no INTs. That is exceptional my any measure.

You have lost your ****ing mind. 2 and 14 ring a bell?

ROFL now you're simply being angry with people who disagree with you, you cant be serious... HE SUCKS ASS END OF STORY.

I get the sense you're better than that but just hate being told you're wrong about something, anything...

I'm not even mad, I'm stating my opinion. If holding true to my opinion seems hostile then I can't help your perception of that.

Your opinion is illogical. It is based on emotion, not rational thinking.

Yep, it really is just that easy, just bomb the bejesus out of 'em I always say!

The other team was trying too, TW... please DONT point to 13 points in the second half, on the road in the playoffs and proclaim FAIL.

Axl beat their ass like a dirty little dog taking a crap in his front yard, blame him and we can just draw the dividing line right there... TRUE FANS HURRR :drool:

These are all opinions. But sometimes opinions are crazy.

Good luck hanging on to the ridiculous thought that our defense didn't lose that game. Get HELP.

I've seen (and been a part of) some silly shit on here...but this....

I've stated that the defense played like shit, but Alex couldn't put it away either. It sucks he was put in that situation but the Chiefs needed more than "good enough".

He WAS more than good enough. He was exceptional by any definition of the word. The defense had an historical collapse.

Yet, he wasn't

The throw Alex made to Bowe was good enough to win the game.

Even Bowe himself acknowledged that and said the reason HE DIDNT EVEN TRY TO GET HIS FEET IN BOUNDS was he had a hurt foot that he thinks would have broken if he got his feet in bounds.

Again, I'm not even getting into the final drive stuff because he had more time than that to get it done and destroy their soul because of the Colts defensive play in the 2nd half.

Ok so you think that you have some sort of empirical truth that the offense sucked in the second half. Wrong, we scored 13. 13 in both halves with a total of 26 for the game wins how many playoff games this year? Face it, our -efense sucked.

Just for reference. 26 points would have been enough to win every playoff game so far except one, ours.

We needed more, it's simple as that. The patron saint of ****ed up situations is Tom Brady who makes his living with these circumstances of bad situations.

Ok whatever. Hope you come to grips with the actual truth of our downfall soon for your own mental health. Good luck.
