Heh. Thought of that one the other day. Fans were flaming him pretty good his first couple of years.

I'll lacerate my spleen right now for $19M.

6 week recovery, $3,166,666 per week? Yes please.

No dumbass. I explained this already.

Relative to the rest of the league Trent was a top 10 QB. Alex was bottom 10. Trent's offense carried the team. Alex benefitted from a defense that carried the team. Their value is/was not the same.

I only remember that happening mainly in his first season. 24 INTs and 17 TDs, if memory serves. Of course, that was before Willie Roaf was on the team and his WRs were Snoop Minnis and ??? At least until they signed Kennison late in 2001.

so perhaps, all this is from you is bitter bitch jealousy.. that your life is shit while Alex has been swimming in millions since age 20... hmmm... :p

I would probably take Trent Green out of the booth today over Alex Smith. :)

My life is fine. I just don't make as much money as Alex and I would gladly switch places with him right now. Are you saying you wouldn't? Wait... that's a dumb question, you two switch places every 30 seconds.

That offense is a wet dream for Alex. I bet Priest Holmes would have 15 receiving TD's on passes to the flat, Tony would have 12 TD's with most of them being in the redzone and other players like Richardson and Dunn getting a few.

Wouldn't be that bad at all. The guy did have 27 TD's in 16 games last year with an offense nowhere as talented overall as the Vermeil Chiefs.

Fans were also stupid.

Trent always took the blame for his INT's, but half of those picks were well timed throws into exactly the window they should have been... but our idiot WR's didn't know where the **** they were supposed to be.

The WR corps from 2001 makes the crew KC is rolling with now look like the 99 rams. Our top WR was hurt most of the season and the rest of our guys were practice squad players we plucked from other teams. OH yeah, and Snoop Minnis. :facepalm:

What rating scale are you using to make this assertion, if I may ask? I believe it was settled on around 18th earlier in this thread. That would make him middle of the pack, not bottom 10. Again, I'm not really all that delighted with Alex Smith as the Chiefs QB. But why do people have to make up stuff to prove the point? If you want to say that he doesn't throw down the field and that he sucks in the 2 minute offense I don't think you would get much argument.

Yup. :thumb:

Dumfuq

Even Mav has finally hopped off Alice Smiff's dick, but here you are still making excuses. Keep ****ing that chicken.

If I remember right it wasn't 'fans' so much as it was Jason Whitlock, then a radio personality in town in addition to his work at the Star, who was as I recall upset that they didn't sign Jeff George and started calling him trINT at the earliest opportunity. There were a few followers of Whitlock here using the moniker, but I think most people understood the receiver situation (it was snoop minnis and chris thomas back in 2001, Kennison was a waiver wire pickup late in the season...).

At least that's how I think it was. Over a decade ago so the years may be fuzzing together.

I'm not using a scale, and I didn't actually rate QBs. I'm just talking out of my ass to make a point.
