Chiefs Geno Smith is not worth the 1st overall pick - Page 3

Nobody does right now. Wait until after the combine, it will change.

He'll be sitting alone in a near empty Arrowhead sporting a mullet and a Teo jersey.

I was thinking more like David Carr or Joey Harrington

Maybe even Akili Smith, but I don't want everybody to call me a racist.

Akili Smith is an example of over-reaching for a position of need and having it blow up in your face. I think Geno would be far better than Akili, but you don't know if he'll be a world-beater or not until he gets in a system and plays. That's why I think Bruce Ariens would be a fantastic fit -- he develops around the QB position and does it with coaching that fits the strengths of the signal-caller.

Poor man's Campbell or Leftwich....or Culpepper. All relevant.

Jason Campbell actually is the perfect comparison to Geno Smith....race and all other things considered of course.

I'll bite - he even looks a bit like Campbell, in their throwing motion and pocket presence.

Real similar QBs, when you mention it.

Campbell might be a decent comparison.

Jason Campbell threw for 45 TDs and 25 INTs during his college career.

Geno only threw for three fewer TDs in this year alone while keeping his INTs at 6 for the year.

Do you want Geno's college career stats? 98 TDs with only 21 INTs.

Yep. Great comparison...

I wasn't impressed with Geno Saturday, but those stats are impressive. I have seen very little of his play and have been getting excited over him just from reports of people here.

Those stats speak for themselves though.

How about comparing Geno's career stats to the last two high profile three year starters at the QB position:

Geno Smith (career):

985/1461
67.4% completion
11,658 yards
8.0 ypa
98 TDs
21 Ints
153.7 QB rating

Andrew Luck (career):

713/1064
67.0% completion
9430 yards
8.9 ypa
82 TDs
22 Ints
162.8 rating

Robert Griffin (career)

800/1192
67.1% completion
10,366 yards
8.7 ypa
78 TDs
17 Ints
158.9 rating

Didn't David Klingler and Andre Ware have like a billion touchdown passes in college? Stats like this mean nothing. How many TD passes did Tom Brady have in college?

I have no idea if Geno Smith will be a Brady or a Ware, but using stats from college really don't mean anything.

Infidel Goat · 01-01-2013, 10:49 AM

On what was probably Geno's third worst game of the season, he went 16/24 for 197 yards and 2 TDs with 0 INTs.

He wasn't quite as accurate as usual and didn't have much success downfield (in part because of Syracuse's pass rush), but he still made very few mistakes.

Given more time to pass and what we've seen of his downfield accuracy in other games, I'm still fully aboard the Geno wagon.
