So lets get it out there then, you do infact think Alex Smith is good enough to not waste the next 2 years of our skill players careers by taking them deep into th eplayoffs?

Considering what he had done the last 28 games or so yes.
We cant search right now but when they benched Smith I stated I thought it was a mistake. That was before I knew he was coming to KC so yea I thought he was good last year. |

My biggest problem with the whole issue, is that they did it right out of the chute, just like ***** did. Heck, I doubt they even knew where the washroom was yet, neither one of them. round and around we go, we are going to catch that tail one of these days! Quote:
They even sat Todd Blackledge on the bench to watch, until the fans got so restless that they put him in. Now, I am in the minority, for sure. But I think sitting and "learning" put fear of failure in Stanzi that he didn't have when he played his first exhibition game. The Iowa College fans that I know, said he didn't have that choking fear in Iowa either. So yeah, lets do something different that hasn't proven over and over to fail, throw a kid in there and see if he succeeds prior to ruining him. Last edited by HemiEd; 04-26-2013 at 01:09 PM.. |

That was my issue as well. They decided on him before the ink was even dry on Reid's contract (probably before an actual contract existed to sign).

Exactly keg, and that is what has led me to believe that once these GMs agreed to a deal, Clark dropped the other shoe and told them how things are done in KC.

Bill Kenney it seemed was never bad enough to bench or good to enough to win. Thus Blackledge really never got the best shake. Never really was allowed just to take the whole reigns and go with. Now he didn't turn out to be anything but he did have a winning record when he left KC. Nowhere near as bad as the other busts of the 80s like Joziwak, Ethan Horton, Anthony Hancock, Paul Palmer, Willie Scott.

You make a good point though, IMO, this fanbase has never had the patience for a rookie QB to OJT, and maybe that is Hunt's reservation. Do you honestly think this fan base would have the patience for any QB short of Luck/Manning talent? |

I don't see Alex winning playoff games here because IMO, there's no way KC wins the division with Peyton Manning around and thus forcing KC to play on the road in a WC against any of these teams: Pitt/Balt/Houston/Bengals/Colts.

We get to see how it plays out. Nothing wrong with a difference in opinion. You hope I am right too. |
