Chiefs If we had started 1-4 would Alex have a job?

RINGLEADER · 11-20-2017, 03:50 PM

And if the answer to that is “no,” why should it be any different now.

Start Mahomes now.

**ptlyon** · 11-20-2017, 03:51 PM

Yes he would, and will.

Dayze · 11-20-2017, 03:51 PM

don't worry. Andy knows he's gotta do better. and that's on him.

so, we got this.

Best22 · 11-20-2017, 03:52 PM

Not if he played like this

The reason it's different is sample size and "credibility." The first few weeks built "credibility" that he could succeed in 2017. He has 18 touchdowns, 3 interceptions, yards.

So it's all sample size relative to the rest of the season (4 terrible performances in 10 games vs. 4 terrible performances in 5 games) and the built up "credibility" he gained from the first few explosive weeks of 2017.

So I think it'll take more poor performances before he's benched, possibly as soon as Buffalo

ARROW2 · 11-20-2017, 03:52 PM

Go ahead and bench him, he will be OK. **** his feelings.

Pasta Little Brioni · 11-20-2017, 03:52 PM

But he didn't,sooo...It sucks, but they aren't making a move up two games.

What a great thread! I'm going to read every post forever.

In58men · 11-20-2017, 03:53 PM

We’ll be fine

**The Franchise** · 11-20-2017, 03:53 PM

Yes because:

1. Defense
2. Offensive line
3. No running game
4. Shitty WRs.

Alex got comfortable again. He played like he had a job to lose early in the season, but after all the MVP talk, he let off the reigns and went back to old shit.

Not sure about this. Given his 12 year s***ty history it is more likely that we caught NE and Philly at the right time. Those rematches are going to be lopsided. Ds were surprised by Hunt, once they bottled him up Alex folded.

There was no guarantee of playing in the SB despite a 5-0 start. Alex should have known that anything short of a SB berth meant that he would be gone. So why suddenly get all comfortable and then regress? Just one explanation - He is the same with 5-0 being a huge fluke.
