You nailed it. It sucks, but I don't care if they win or lose. Starting Mahomes will spark major enthusiasm for me.

This!

Can't WAIT to fire up a shitty web-feed and bitch about it again! :)

Was really hoping to see his 1st game in person while I'm here.

I hope you do.

Yes, but it's not going to happen.

Yes, Pat should be out there tomorrow winning hearts and minds. Instead we'll get the pleasure of watching Alice panic out there and smith himself.

I realize I'll get flamed for this, but is the only caliber we accept from Alex Smith as our QB the early season version where he was a presumptive MVP front runner? This was literally a time when Tigger and Clay were skipping together on the Plaza singing showtunes. There must be some middle ground.

I am insanely excited for Mahomes but I'm delusional enough to want to give Alex the ability to atone for that Giants game. He fails tomorrow and my hope fails with him. I just tink he's a guy who consistently finds the law of averages and given his last few performances, the arrow is pointing up.

I predicted it at the start of the season.

Are you ****ing kidding me?

Four of the last five games he's been butt****ing trash.

He's looked like Tyler Bray out there the last month.

You guys do remember what a pile of shit Tyler Bray is, right? That's the sort of showing Alice has had.

I think of the last five games he was solid in Oakland, average against Denver, and a cluster**** against Pittsburgh, Dallas, and NY.

But the games before that he was playing at a consistently higher level than he had in years past. I recall even you acknowledging that.

In aggregate, he's probably about the same QB as in prior years with higher highs and lower lows. If you want to read that optimistically, it means he's trying. If you want to read that pragmatically, he's trying but he can't make it work.

Only on CP is 14/31 "average."

The problem is that he is getting worse against inferior competition...he is done.

Joking maybe

Meh. He's screened just as mediocre in past years against equally inferior competition and then bounced back to show traces of potential. I'm not willing to sell him this low nor was I ever willing to buy him earlier when CP was littered with delusional threads about our trading him for a 1st or 2nd round pick.

I voted no because I think this is Alex's year good or bad, but if Mahomes did jump in there I'd be glued to the Chiefs again. Plus we still have a game and a half lead in spite of our best efforts to hand it off to someone else. So if we lose tomorrow and Alex looks like he's looked the past month in doing so, I wouldn't be shocked in the least to see Mahomes next week.

But as for tomorrow against Buffalo - no.
