Line the 2 of them up shoot both in the head. Save time and money.

It starts at the top....

Again this team lacks leadership....

Well that first pass of the game should tell you all you need to know about Alex Smith. Everything was perfect yet still couldn't hit his receiver.

Actually, no one here really says that, except for the few SF... Whatever they are. It comes from national sports media. Smith IS very intelligent, just not where it matters most. He certainly doesn't have Peyton smarts.

They were blitzing all night and we kept calling long developing plays.

GET THE ****ING BALL OUT.

They need to do a better job of calling plays to mask the problems of the ol...but maybe that ship has already sailed.

It's telling that our QB doesn't seem to check us out of those plays.

I can't believe that a QB as smart as Alex Smith wouldn't be allowed by his coach to audible, so...

Putting trust in Reid is quite laughable...

Alex isn't the answer at QB, anyone with IQ of a box turtle knows that. But to constantly excuse Reid when you can blame Alex is only masking the issue and looking for an escape goat.

How am I excusing Reid there?

He either doesn't trust Alex to audible - which is laughable considering all the "smartest QB in the league" talk - or Smith really isn't capable of reading the blitz and making the proper adjustments.

Both are a reflection on Reid, as HE hand-picked Alex.

Forgive me as I wasn't solely directing that at you OTWP58, I was making more of a generalized statement of CP when it comes to QB's and excape goats..

But if the QB fails that is hand picked by the coach, then both need to go when in the end. Reid shouldn't stay here longer than AS.

Fair enough.

Part of the blame has to fall on Dorsey for letting quality linemen walk and replacing them with TERRIBLE players.

And going into the deepest WR draft in history and not drafting one.

Agreed.

This was running through my head all game.

Well, yeah.

Dorsey is the architect behind all of this. He's the brilliant mind that ignored glaring personnel deficiencies. He's the only that seems to have pissed away numerous high draft picks on abortion-level/decidedly average players. This was his vision I suppose. Congrats.

The life of a Chiefs fans is pretty cool.

I'm sorry but I have a very hard time giving Alex much blame for last night...

that was the worst OL performance I've seen from KC in ? Hell I don't even know. We already know the WR situation.

If anything I respect Alex even more for making it out of that game alive, and with 2 TD's somehow.
