Is Alex Smith Who We Thought He Is?

As I see it, there IS no OC for the KC Chiefs; just a consultant and a salary.

If Kansas City had a baggage-free, home-grown QB capable of EXCEEDING Reid's system/playbook, the Chiefs would be shoe-ins for the AFCCG every season.

It's really up to hunt to tell reid he needs to fire him self has the OC until then fan's are stick with this shit.

I do get the 'battered wife syndrome' alot of Chiefs fans have with the team though.

The 'Monster around every corner' has been true for the most part. That wont change until they win the big ones.

But i will never sit around and not enjoy winning. never.

Do you suffer from TFS?

Never, ever happen. Clark cHunt's goof-ass face and Senator-hair( 'Consort' hair spray for men sold separate ) is the picture next to the phrase "hands-off" in all known dictionaries the world over.

Didn't hunt say he was taking a more hands on approach after the whole Pioli debacle ?

The Chiefs are a Hunt Family business, and it is Clark's job to make sure that business runs smooth, sets a good example within the guidelines of the NFL, and most important of all: makes the money.

His "passion" for football extends to the realm of keeping his father's legacy alive and respected.

He did, and I believe he has. But as long as he is getting successful results (7-2 is pretty damn successful) he isn't going to force any changes. No owner would.

And we're letting him off the hook.

I think the people that are hoping a fully healthy team can be the only difference against a NE in NE this year need to realize that isn't going to happen. It would be amazing if this team suffers tons of injuries during the regular season and then in the playoffs, boom, healthy. Seems unlikely.

If we go into NE for a divisional round or AFCCG, odds are we will be less than full strength. To me that means Reid will have to be better, our redzone will have to be better, Alex will have to be at "his" best(haven't seen it much this year), and the defense will have to be on. Just seems like we will end up with a major guy on one side, if not both sides, of the ball missing.

Can't think that just being healthy is enough change from last years playoff loss to make the difference. Some actual differences will be needed from the players on the field and the coaches off it.

Not talking about a fully healthy team. I am thinking CERTAIN KEY players are perhaps the must have. KC can still compete deep in the playoffs, but we are likely to need JMac and Houston back out there.

Those two are in the top 4 of contract payouts for a reason. You take two of the top 4 contract players away from any playoff team, and yes.. they will struggle mightily to win out.

Between Ware, Houston, Maclin, a tackle, and a CB, this season just screams us missing at least 2 in the playoffs. Obviously my only basis on that is last year's history and the flow of this season, so it's conjecture at it's finest. I hope I am wrong. Either way, this team has room for improvement which is encouraging. Whether they will do so, or whether Reid is even hell-bent on doing so, remains to be seen. If we expect to go on the road and play not to lose, a good team is going to slowly bleed us to death, which is what happened last year.

Someone get Chris616 back in here. He could fashion some flutes for the playoffs. Positivity.
