In fairness. Guys like Mac and I haven't been swayed by two games.

We have been telling you guys that this was going to happen since the moment the Chiefs traded for Alex Smith.

I'm all for Alex doing well. But it's a little early to proclaim yourself a prophet.

I find NOTHING hilarious about Pete Carroll laughing at the expense of the 49ers.

We all know it's just a part of your "I was right about Alex Smith" campaign that's basically become your life's work.


It's all good Snoop. We already know what you're MO is.

See. That is the difference for me and other people.

Other people see Alex's contribution as stats, throwing yards, passing yards, tds.

That has NEVER been my stance. Mine was always about helping the Chiefs WIN games.

The only stat I ever mentioned, was 37 turnovers. Which is what the Chiefs had last year.

Wins, and turnovers. Mac and I, told people that was where the biggest contribution would come from.

So yes, I am allowed to gloat and be a "prophet" in that regard wouldn't you say?

so wait. Your avatar is funny, but my signature is offensive? Even if they are both poking fun at the 49ers?

From a chief fan perspective, sure. But I'm not sure you're really making that provocative statement saying Smitty could come in and win more than 2 games.

Two, including one that would have been housed and given the Cowboys the lead.

Smith has been adequate. Fine. Solid.

"Kicking ass" is an extreme stretch. Maybe compared to Matt Cassel/Brady Quinn/Brody Croyle/Tyler Palko, but not compared to legitimate NFL starting QBs.

Chiefs fans have been watching QBs who ride the short bus for too long. Alex Smith rides on the long bus, but he's the guy sitting at the front of the bus, longingly looking at all the cool kids in the back.

Kape has been a freakin turnover machine-and people say-oh that doesnt count because blah blah blah ect. I bet if Alex had played like him the last two games this place would explode-lol

I meant last week, when the 49ers were rushing for 2.5ypc and the Packers were scoring with 8 play/2:00 minute drives. SF actually had a couple of long drives, but it doesn't really matter when the Packers match it in 2 minutes.




The whole point was that Halfcan wanted to compare Smith's 0 turnovers to Kaepernick's 4 or whatever, ignoring all kinds of stuff like who the 49ers and Chiefs have played and how aggressive Kaepernick's had to be against the teams they've played vs how aggressive Smith's had to be.

Of course Kaepernick has made more mistakes... if he doesn't throw for 400+ yards vs the 49ers, they lose. Smith hasn't had to do that, obviously.

Meh, I'm done with it... a decade ago, it was all "at least we're winning!" when people tried pointing out the terrible, terrible defense, and none of it mattered come playoff time. In 2006, people ignored Herm's offense, and in 2010, people ignored the QB situation and the fact the Chiefs hadn't played anyone. If fans are excited to beat shitty teams and win 8-9 wins, good for them... it's been that way for 4 decades, so why expect more from the team you spend so much money and time and emotion on. We shouldn't talk about the big picture, because they're 2-0... we should all be celebrating or something.

It wasn't just the turnovers- it was the leadership. Kape wouldnt be where he is if Alex hadn't helped him. When they started lossing kape pouted. When the chiefs were losing-Alex brought them back against a tough D.

My favorite is always this.

"we won today, but we cant sustain this type of winning with these types of numbers from our qb."

Then, the next week, Alex Smith wins, and its always about next week. Considering that every team loses, multiple times per season, they are bound to be right at least 4 or 5 times.
