Chiefs QB Future in KC

If Bill Parcells was still coaching, he'd call Alex Smith a "hold the fort" QB. That horrible endzone pick cost you the game. With rookie QBs having so much success across the board this season, it never ceases to amaze me how many teams continue to try to polish a turd into a mediocre QB, or coach up a mediocre QB into a solid but unimpressive QB, or go out and get a solid but unimpressive QB who will never break through the plane and become a great QB. Alex Smith is that last one. Looks good most of the time, just good enough to have a decent TD/INT ratio, QB rating hangs out in the high 90s, but never makes you go, "Wow, that's a guy who can win a Super Bowl for us."
