The fact of the matter is, if Alex Smith fails, there will likely be a riot. But if he does end up doing well every single fan will become a die hard supporter.
There are just as many stories of moderate QB's being successful with another team, as there are Failed hand-me downs that have done nothing but disappoint.
What we need to do is exactly as every one on the team is going to do, and that's support our QB. Talk shit after he fails(if he fails). Because do we want him to fail? Ask yourselves that. Do you want Alex Smith to fail, and be a complete bust? Any honest, realistic Chiefs fan would obviously say no. Alex Smith is your QB, whether you want him to be or not. So why not be supportive and encourage our team to do well. Leave the shit talking til after he screws everything up.
