Geno Smith vs Alex Smith - It's on.
It's on now. Geno Smith is probably going to be starting for the Jets this season.
Alex Smith will be the Chiefs QB for the forseeable future. If he's a success, we'll probably get five good years out of him. So who's gonna win more NFL games over that time period? Put your ten pounders on the table and make a vote Alex: 11 wins Geno: 8 wins Last edited by Hammock Parties; 12-30-2013 at 02:56 AM.. |

This is the same QB that was 8th in NFL passer rating in 2011... 1st NFL passer rating in 2012... top 10 in the last 37 games.. terrific win % of late... I get that football is a team game... I get that Harbaugh and the SF offense didn't ask him to take over games and go wild in the Tony Romo mode... but an efficient QB that limits turnovers and wins far more games than he loses... This is the QB that "is incredibly bad and has shown how incredibly bad he is over and over again." ???? That's just ****ing stupid. |

![]() I guess you weren't a 49ers fan from 2005-2010. A season and a half doesn't make a QB good, and even then, he wasn't anything special. |

Never about what a player was or did many years ago. It is about the player he is in recent times and today. Sure, Alex was underwhelming and sometimes horrible in his early years. So were the 49ers and revolving door of coaching. Once the coaching became stable and capable, once the player personnel improved, so did Alex. Imagine that... a QB that needs good, consistent coaching and decent players around him. No way! ![]() |

Matt Cassel took over for Tom Brady in 2008 and had a "statistically" great year and "led" the Patriots to 11-5 and just short of the playoffs. He, then, went to a no-talent Chiefs team and went 4-12. There were already questions about Cassel's ability at that time, but we decided to give him the benefit of the doubt due to the lack of talent on the team. Then, in 2010, the Chiefs developed an identity and Cassel simply didn't screw anything up, thus making the playoffs. Again, I must add that the Cheifs asked Cassel to do NOTHING but a random play action pass every once in awhile, seriously. Then the next two years, the real Cassel showed himself to be the horrific QB that we all started thinking he was when he was forced to actually do something. What I'm trying to say to you, oh great Alexcuse whisperer, is that a QB can really florish and mask his weaknesses if the system is REALLY good and if the talent is REALLY good. If things unravel the way they did for Cassel to where he has to win games himself, we'll all know what will happen with Alex Smith. |

( and before people cry "you are doing it with Alex!" )... Maybe I am overestimating him on this new team. Maybe he will underwhelm and be nothing more than a mediocre stop-gap. I am fine with people lumping him into that average range of QBs, though I do think he has proven to be better lately.. top 12, but more around 12. edit added in : What annoys me is the ignorant and exaggerated comments like this...

Keep coming back to it, but really, Alex will be as good as the team around him is. If KC has a good defense, decent STs, decent pass pro, and capable receivers, the Chiefs will consider the trade compensation a fair one in time. If this team around him is much weaker than most think? It could be a 6-8 win season until they add a little more of what is needed. Last edited by Sandy Vagina; 08-23-2013 at 07:30 AM.. |

Add in new coaching and a few player additions since the Cassel days, and maybe just maybe you will be surprised and happy about the success to come. |

Cassel, unlike Smith, didn't even play a snap in college. That dude didn't even get to see the field during a regular college game. I never understood how even got a gig in the NFL. Smith was a very good college QB, who was drafted #1. Now, he has shown his ugly, but he has also shown why he was good in college. What QB are we going to get ? Hopefully the one who helps his team win games. .

^ I never expected anything good for KC when I first heard about the Cassel addition.

We did. A lot of us "hoped" for the best when Cassel came along,a nd that's part of why a lot of the fan base is pissed about Smith. It's a different scenario, but it doesn't feel like one.
