Press conference
 

@ArrowheadAddict: Dorsey: We feel very fortunate that Alex will be a member of the Chiefs franchise for years to come.

@ArrowheadAddict: Dorsey: Since the beginning of this process, we've always had our eye on Alex.

@ArrowheadAddict: Smith: I'm ready for this.

@ArrowheadAddict: Smith: I can't say how excited I am for it. Thankful for the opportunity.


I Agree with this tweet:

@Lance_THESPOKEN: Dorsey said the reason they signed Alex is because quote "He's shown he can play football at a very high level." WHEN????? #Chiefs




THE BEST ONE OF THEM ALL:

@Lance_THESPOKEN: Yes, Andy Reid just said they're gonna "work on getting Alex Smith in the Hall of Fame." Take it as you will, I didn't make it up. #Chiefs



They're already sold on Smith, way to keep your options open dick suckers:

@APdaveskretta: Andy Reid: "I'm going to tell you every position we try to create competition ... but I'll tell you, Alex is the starting QB" #Chiefs



Let me know when he's gone, I'm done with this shit organization.

@DannyParkins: Talked to #Chiefs GM John Dorsey away from the media and he says it's absolutely fair to say they view Alex Smith as longterm answer at QB.

Holy freaking cow. Alex Smith has no idea who is on this team.

Alex you poor bastard, so will get the leftover Cassel hate.

Somebody just start asking Chase Daniels questions.

6-10 here we come. YESsssssssssssssssss

Welcome to the blast furnace, Alex... you've just stepped into a very tough row to hoe.

I love how the poll on their site (the grade im giving the Alex Smith trade is..) doesn't give an "F" option

LMAO

lol. NFL network was like we will go live to the alex smith presser and nothing. lol Joke franchise is a joke.

Oh after 7 seasons he finally says this lol



@APdaveskretta: Alex Smith: "I made it very clear to the 49rs that I wanted to play. I wasn't ready to sit there and be a backup." #Chiefs

wont this be his 9th?

**** this life.

Adam Teicher ‏@adamteicher

No surprise, but Reid says Smith is the starting QB. No competition with Daniel

Chase pushed Drew Brees everyday.

@bobfescoe: Reid: Alex is the starting qb #chiefs



It still hasn't sank in it yet. ****ing sick to my stomach

says he WILL sing and dance at the appropriate time

Why does Andy Reid have so much confidence in Alex Smith? I mean, seriously. Let's not just be pithy and sarcastic. What do you suppose made Andy Reid honestly believe that a guy who had never thrown more than 18 touchdowns in a season will suddenly operate his offense at a "high level?"

I am just so confused why they have confidence in this guy.

Is it his intelligence? Is it ball security? Because Reid was the original "throw it 40 times a game" guy. I am really fascinated now.

At least 3-13 will be an improvement.

Dorsey is gonna skull**** Teicher....

I love how 53% give it an A.

Why are they asking questions about Matt ****ing Cassel? i don't want to hear his name anymore until his ass is released.

Alex brought a start of sourdough for the Chef.

Of course he is.

GO ALEX GO

Because he was available?

Man, ****...I guess.

Shit I feel sorry for him. shit

Me thinks Dorsey is a little bit embarrassed about how much they gave up. Got a little touchy when asked about what they gave up for Alex ****ing Smith.

Get use to this "Alex Smith" look. He seems to have already thrown an incomplete check down pass.

The fans that post on that kcchiefs chat board make me wanna punch them. lol How they dont ****ing learn baffles me.

I guess the "true fan" just loves shit sandwhiches.

boss de plane de plane

Wow.


The only news missing: Alex Smith's 5 year contract worth 11tybillion dollars.

turned that shit off when i heard thy are working on getting Smith into the hall of fame. **** this regime already.

I just hope he plays well, because I can tell you as a person he sounds like a swarmy prick.

Alex Smith HALL OF FAMER

I do, too.


But, he can go from garbage to hero if he wins ONE playoff game. That isn't exactly high standards.

The last regime said the exact same thing about Matt Cassel for four years.

That announcement comes on draft day.

I can't wait until they announce Smith's extension. I feel like I'm watching a bad movie where they're reenacting 2009.

I feel like I've been through this before...

Alex Smith tickets vs New Big Screen

Ready.... Go

Might as well. This place will be on Defcon 1 anyway, we might as well meltdown all the way.

We should flood that shit with cp realism and watch them cry.

The team was 2-14, and basically terrible for the last 5+ years. They are irrelevant to everyone outside of Kansas City.

Way to make it worse prick

But...... KC was definitely his choice among franchises he wanted to go to.

Riiiiight...

What a ****ing mess..

i did i posted, wrong smith :( and i got alot of Geno smith sux! lol Well, hey so does Alex Smith. lol

I saw that. I got in there too, but the rest of my messages were screened out.

He acted like a total Dick. Jesus. :doh!:

Sorry guys.

Christ almighty.............this franchise is dooooooooooomed FOREVER!

@nflnetwork: The new starting QB for the @kcchiefs will join us in moments.

I'll say this--they HAVE A LOT TO ****ING PROVE. they're starting out the new regime about five feet underground--to make headway, GET OUT OF THE ****ING HOLE, yeah? how do you do that? by BEING RIGHT ABOUT THE QB, GENO SMITH AND EVERY ****ING QB BUSTING HARD, and WINNING PLAYOFF GAMES (a ****ing super bowl would be nice).

I'm done being patient watching the same ****ing shit every ****ing year. you do things the wrong ****ing way EVERY GODDAMNED TIME, you GET NO ****ING SLACK.

IN case it was missed, Matt Cassel is on vacation.

“@DannyParkins: Talked to #Chiefs GM John Dorsey away from the media and he says it's absolutely fair to say they view Alex Smith as longterm answer at QB.”

**** me

Yep, that's what I was thinking. Didn't like anyone on the current roster. Didn't like any rookies. Thought he was the best available via FA or trades to help win right now.

With the WCO you don't have to have the most physical talent in the world.

Reading this is like listening to radio edited gangster rap

Haha.

They are sticking the knife in Piolis side and he is feeling it. Lashed back at Rich eisen saying "that was unneeded" or something after they moved on to the logical point of when to release Cassel.

Pioli almost cried and was basically pleading for the Chiefs to release him.

Well if it makes you feel any better Matt Casshole 2.0 is our starting QB. :banghead:

*chest bump*



I know that feel bro

This move could stink. But do you really equate this regime with Pioli's?

Dorsey looks just like Pioli.. wow.

Eh. WTF else is he gonna say?

"Alex Smith? Pfffff, nah. This dude is just a stop gap. Wait till next season guys, we're gonna get a REAL Qb"

And we all wanted this guy (Dorsey) to be GM.

You just don't know who you are getting, cause you really don't know the PERSON. But really, I think this was a Andy Reid pick.

Oh JFC.


****


****

****

Lol. Can you tell me what they've done DIFFERENTLY?

Please, by all means, explain to us what this regime has done that Pioli didn't do in '09.

9 out of 10 of the FB page thinks he is the best thing since Montana also.

lol, only time will tell, but it can get way fast!!!!!!!!

I this franchise has not got better imo. We have made sideways moves so far.

What did we do to get better? Coaching maybe, cause i dunno lol

"Alex Smith will compete with Geno Smith for the starting Quarterback position!"

Pioli didn't win a championship with his hand-picked QB, and neither will Reid.

So unless you get a hard-on for mediocrity, with the occasional one-and-done curbstomping in the playoffs, there's no difference.

Ya. I think Alex is the bride that gets thrown in the volcano. After a year of eating "clean" meal worms.

Why not? Didn't take a genius to see Cassel wasn't the answer and as QB's go I would think most of them would want to play for him.
The media tagged him here all along I'm sure it wasn't hard for him to say yea, I could see myself there.

Reid obviously doesn't like G. Smith. I don't know why it is so hard for some of you to get that.

As far as A. Smith and the future...If he plays well he gets a new contract, if not he does not.

A. Smith, for this year, was, in Reid's mind the ONLY option.

Live with it or don't. Won't change a thing.

We are gonna end up winning with Reid/Dorsey. How far, I don't know. But it is certainly better than the alternative.

holy ****! Alex Smith hasn't even played a down for the Chiefs and people are jumping of bridges...

$63M contract coming up...

ROFL, i know. Give the guy a chance at least ffs.

They should all apply for jobs in the NFL - cause they sure know more than anyone besides the Harbaughs and Brother Bill up in NE.

JFC :facepalm::banghead:

This guy isn't even close to the long term answer.

guess I just have to hope I am completely wrong about Smith now because we are obviously stuck with him now. they are handling this as if it is Cassel 2.0. Only thing left to do is to set up the 5 year 64 million contract.

Because some of us have seen this script a few times.


The Chiefs are trying to get to the Superbowl in a way that has the worst percentages to get there. Trying to win with a retread qb is the hardest way to do it. can it be done sure, but its the exception to the rule!!

Its an easy thing to see if you step back and look. The qb was bench as soon as his old team seen the window cracked and never looked back. It happened like that for a reason!

@bobfescoe: Dorsey told me he considered 20 qbs both college and pro before picking smith #chiefs



Does he throw check downs? Nope only long balls

Pass

Does he throw check downs? No he likes to throw deep.

Pass

Does he throw check downs? Maybe once or twice a game, usually 10 yards or longer he's a real chain mover

Pass
