I refuse to believe Andy is dumb enough, or that his ego is large enough, to ignore the warning signs that have been flashing all year long with this QB.
It's possible he might start next season, but I doubt he finishes it, and there will be no extension.
The end is coming.

Was that so hard? Your Alex hate doesn't have to always be so visceral. The rumblings that Dorsey sniffed around Paxton Lynch tells me the brass is looking to upgrade the position, but not at a monumental cost. This team's Superbowl contention window is open, but only for a short time with Smith. A shiny new rookie wins them nothing short term, but I think Dorsey believes he can get the supporting cast strong enough around Smith to contend until a new face of the franchise is found. Denver did it with an ineffective Manning. His fading star was too much too pass up for the NFL and unfortunately KC doesn't have that sentimentality league wide for guys like Hali, Charles and DJ. Great vets, but not all time greats....
