But the fact remains, it appears to be what this thread is about. So, to say don't compare them, in this thread, just struck me as somewhat funny.

I agree - this is a QB comparison thread re: Geno vs. Alex, but I think the greater context is "which QB has lasting success? Would Chiefs be better off long term with Geno?"
So in that context, it is fair to compare the 2 QBs, but it is also fair not to hold the rookie to the standard of the Vet. This will serve as a good place for discussing Geno's progress over the years, or until he busts out. Either way, it will take a couple of years at least to see whether the Chiefs would have been better off with Geno Smith.
As somebody who has no faith in Geno Smith to be a solid staring NFL QB, I don't much care either way.
