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

But gain, in the end these guys are humans (te front office, coaches) and they make mistakes. I'm not goin to put my head in the sand and hope it turns out ok without discussing it. Again, this is a message board, just because I might not agree with this or that move, I still want and hope they win games.

GO CHIEFS
Why does there have to be some fan standard? People should just react how they react.

Don't know if any if you guys read it, I skimmed it, but mellinger wrote a good article about the royals and their fans.

Something like it isn't up to the fans to believe its up to the team to give something to believe in. Paraphrasing of course

I was on one hand referring to a certain segment of the fanbase that seems to believe the front office can do no wrong, and jumps all over anyone who questions any moves made, whether it's by Peterson, or Pioli or Dorsey. It's something that I've seen happen every offseason going back as far back as 1999. So I was saying that people like that, who never question anything, are basically just accepting whatever they get. Which as we know, over that period of time, has been losing.

And as O.city mentioned, the franchise has also operated in their version of "win now" mode over that time frame, with very little in terms of real commitment given to team development through the draft. Marty/Gun and Vermeil all basically killed the future (now present) of the franchise from the mid-90s through the mid-00s, and without the aberration that's marked by a few solitary draft picks between 2006 and 2008 things would be even worse now, as hard as that is to believe. So I also was saying that being okay with the way the franchise was operated from 1998 until now is being okay with losing. Because that's ultimately what you'll get.

Now, I hope they're trying to change the approach. You'd think they would, particularly with Dorsey (Reid's activities the last couple of years are frightening, on the other hand...). But the reality is that they haven't, yet. They also haven't really had time to.
Some portion of every single fan base will back the FO no matter what, thats just reality. Last year in the middle of SOC there were people telling us it was wrong. Its just how it works, the Chiefs are no different a fan base in that regard.

The team did not use a win now approach in 2008 or 2009 and that ended up getting Herm fired because the losing caused the fan base to stop showing up. If you remember they TRIED to use Croyle as QBOTF but Brokie ended up being Brokie and well, not very good.

No one can debate we could have made better QB decisions since then but its also practically impossible to deny (though some will try) we have a talented team right now and trying to win now while developing for the future is the best option at this time.

I have no doubt thats the plan.

Yeah, I always say to each his own, so I guess I am being a hypocrite on this. Maybe going to church is an example. No point in going to church if one is going to live their lives in hate and sin? Probably a terrible example, but whatever... I never claimed to be all that sagacious.

When exactly is that not the best option?

I wouldn't necessarily say its impossible to deny right now. There is quite a bit of individual talent but that talent just came off a 2 win season. I'm hoping the coaching makes a huge difference

It wasn't even a possible option in 2008 honestly.

Chiefs fans don't have decades of learned pessimism. They have higher expectations. Royals fans are dying for an over .500 record, and to just be in the hunt. Many Chiefs fans are saying playoff wins or bust.

So no Chiefs fan has reason to be pessimistic that the Alex Smith signing isn't going to work?

Didn't say that. Just saying being a Royals fan and being a Chiefs fan are two different things.

You can be pessimistic about any move you want.
