Regardless of Wilson's ceiling, he is probably going to be a favorite to make a deep playoff run NOW off a largely game management approach.
I'm not saying it's ideal. Again, I don't know if Smith can consistently make big 4th quarter plays the way Eli and Flacco have. But the knock on this approach is a little bit silly, because there are plenty of times who have had big postseason success with it.

It's pretty ****ing easy to see the stupidity:
How many of these game managers won the ****ing SB? OK. "Oh, but the Chiefs suck shit and winning in the playoffs would be good enough."
Yeah, no ****ing shit that it's an improvement. Is that the bar now? Or our the Chiefs actually expected to build to something? Accomplish something? If the goal is to replicate the "success" of the 90s, my bad.
If Alex ****ing Smith were a second-year player right now, we'd all be ecstatic. He's not. We're not. He's ****ing mediocre.
And don't ****ing compare him to E. Manning or Flacco again. Ridiculous, even in the most tangential sense.
