Honestly I think the Chiefs will be below .500 for the next two years, and you will see Alex Smith hit free agency.
(If they don't restructure his contract)

:deevee:

Some of you guys are ****ing pathetic. Seriously.

Alex Smith may or may not lead this team to a Super Bowl but he's not the long-term starter, either, unless he plays absolutely lights out.

Just because Reid and Dorsey are passing on the top QB's available in this draft doesn't mean they're passing in every draft, nor does it mean that they will never draft and a develop a QB.

It just means that it won't happen in 2013.

Reid has never turned a bad QB into a good QB but he does have a knack for getting the most out them. I suspect Smith will be serviceable, the True Fans will all point and laugh and say "see? see?" and the Chiefs will flame out in the play-offs every year.

It's just a prediction... ya know, what the thread title called for?

But the whining and the tantrums? You're going to "follow" Geno Smith now because the Chiefs didn't like him enough to draft him? What the ****? If Smith is a bust, good luck with that.

So many people are acting like petulant children. It's embarrassing for them and it's embarrassing to read.

And it is the 30th ****ing consecutive year since it has happened. Can we not connect those dots? They are in a straight line and are very consistent.

What on Gods green earth would give you any hope that it would happen next year, or any year with that kind of pattern? That pattern has been with 4 gms and now 10 head coaches.

Yup, I followed Barry Sanders through the 90's and had a great time doing it.
I still watched the Chiefs games, but wasn't invested like I have been in them since the Vermeil era.

If I can follow Geno Smith throughout his career and root for him, instead of putting all of my faith into Chiefs retreads, why not?

How does that hurt you? and that's not being a bandwagon fan, if so I wouldn't root for: Chiefs, Lions, Royals, MU Tigers

:LOL: I was thinking the same thing, but didn't wanna get piled on.

What gives me "hope" is that Andy Reid and Clark Hunt said that they would draft and develop a franchise QB. Reid said he didn't know if he would come from the 2013 draft or the 2014 draft. But I do believe that he wants to draft and develop a franchise QB because not only will that help the Chiefs, it'll also cement his legacy.

It doesn't affect or "hurt" me at all. I just don't understand how someone in Missouri can "fall in love" with a guy that played at WV for a 7-6 team so much that he's decided to follow him and the team that drafts him.

Enjoy.

You are an idiot Alex Smith lover! The worst type of fan. You go from team to team looking to make friends because in your lonely life that is all that you have, football message boards. Nobody likes you, your not loved. Your a giant loser who wants to marry Alex Smiff.

And Chiefs fans I'm sorry, no hate for your team from me. But you guys got hosed. The curse of Alex Smiff is now on you guys. Have fun trying to rid yourselves of him for the next decade. The Raiders will return to Glory before you guys will. Maybe after Kaep wins 4 SB's for us we will trade him off to you guys and you might make the playoffs with a 38 year old Kaep.

Also have fun being stuck with "Alex Smith Snoopy Doopy fan" busting into every thread defending his boy toy and bringing this whole forum down with him.

Best of Luck

-A very happy 9er fan

You still believe what they said? Really? Clark also said that he wanted to draft and develop a QB after firing Herm, right? This will make how many drafts, 5 since he said that?

How many excuses were offered for not drafting a QB during the Pioli regime? Very similar to what we hear this year, right?
How long did it take Dorsey and Reid to start spewing that bullshit?
Shortly after they learned where the shitter was at Arrowhead?
Shortly after they had their work defined by Clark after taking the job?

Ok, the evidence shows me that what they said is bullshit, bullshit to the fans, and the Chiefs don't plan on drafting a QB, ever. As we all know, this time of year crap coming out of front offices is bullshit, and I think them claiming to draft and develop a QB is nothing more.

Everyone on board the 10 and 6 train, toot toot!

30 Years is a lifetime for a lot of people, and it has been that long since they tried.

This was the chiefs year to select a QB in the draft. The first time in franchise history that we own the #1 pick where no other team can leave us with leftovers. With the rookie wage scale, not huge amounts of dollars to set the franchise back 5 years, and QB being the biggest need for this team. I did extensive research on quite a few QB's in this class and Geno Smith is just exactly what I would want in a franchise QB.

He could be a total bust, and that is fine... but if I were the GM of this team I would've at least given this city and it's fan base a chance. I would've tried.
Something no other GM/HC has done for us.

I understand that would only make a certain amount of people happy, because most of this fan base is acceptable with taking other teams castoffs... they are used to it. Drafting is too new of a concept for them, but that's the way real super bowl winning franchises do it. (Minus Drew Brees because the Chargers were fools).


I can't believe in the ONE CITY that drafting a Bust QB at #1 overall won't get you fired because the fans haven't seen it in 30 years, Reid/Dorsey will push in all their chips in on Alex ****ing Smith.

If Alex wins 8 games in 2013, we all know we won't be in a position to draft the best QB in the next draft.

We will stick with Alex and we will just need to upgrade two or three positions to get better!!!!

So ****ing what? YOU wanted Geno Smith. The Chiefs did not. I'm glad that you and your ilk can have a pity party now.

This just so much ****ing bullshit. Dorsey was around in Green Bay when they traded for Favre and drafted Brunnel, Rodgers, Hasselbeck and so many others. Reid was in Philly when they took McNabb and a host of other QB's. To claim that this is their M.O. is ****ing ludicrous.

Your argument holds absolutely no weight. You just can't deal with the fact that Dorsey and Reid clearly didn't like Geno Smith enough to draft him.

Yeah, giving up a second rounder means they've gone all in, right? LMAO You don't even know what the compensation is at this point, as there have been many different reports.

But enjoy your pity party and whichever team selects Geno Smith, the savior of the NFL.
