Chiefs Andy Reid - Page 8

Get him Clark.

Bring in the walrus!

But seriously, he's getting the shaft in Philly. He's the best coach of the realistic options who proven the most.

O.city stopped giving a shit about this team because he's got a lot of real life responsibilities coming his way, but he interpreted that in his mind as going full homer for some reason.

Whatever, though. I can respect the guy's decisions.

Also, five years ago I thought Reid would have succumbed to heart disease.

I WAS DEAD WRONG! PLEASE FORGIVE ME, MARCELLUS

Pretty much. Sorry if it comes across as assholish to anyone, I just got to the point that if they give me good football to watch on Sundays and beat some good teams, I'm fine with that. I've got the cardinals and the jayhawks to fulfil my championship needs I guess.

I also realized that te chiefs are one o the worst franchises in sports and if they ha e a couple year stretch here where they relive the 90's I'll enjoy it.

Life's too short to bitch an moan about stuff I can't control and I like the front office as coaches we brought in. I'll sit back, enjoy life and let it happen

That's not to say he won't ever, but at this point he doesn't. At this point, his upside is Alex smith.

Uhhhh..............no. Sorry. Just.....no.

That is straight up bullshit.
An NFL veteran has established his value, and Alex Smith was in no way worth a 2nd and 3rd round pick.

If I go to buy a used car and pay used Mercedes price for a used Toyota just because someone else wanted that same used Toyota, I ****ed myself.

No matter how you spin it, the cost can not be justified.

I don't give a rat's ass if Alex goes on to win the next 10 SBs, his value at the time of the trade was no ****y near the price paid.

You haven't been an asshole at all. Being a Chiefs fan makes the soul tired and old. You're just doing what you can do.

**BossChief** · 08-28-2013, 12:46 PM

Exactly, Milk.

Before last season, Alex Smith was an unrestricted free agent and had little to no interest as a starter elsewhere...then, he gets benched for a superior player (that was drafted in the second round, to define irony) last year and KC give up a second and third round pick (minimum) for hom and some just guzzle the Koolaid.

The most puzzling part?

Adam Schefter went on tv right after the trade and said no other team was willing to give up a second pick...but we give up 2 PREMIUM picks.

Oh well, I guess.

I think people in general (not just on Chiefs Planet) don't understand the concept of "at the time."

It's like the Dontari Poe pick. The dude appears to be doing very well for himself, and *knock on wood* he'll turn into something REALLY special for us on the defensive line.

That doesn't justify the pick we made for him at the time, when we were getting a guy with no college production at freakin' Memphis, and who couldn't get upfield pressure one-on-one against a guard from Arkansas State all game.

Likewise, Tyson Jackson gets talked about as, "At least we didn't pick Aaron Curry or one of those other epic busts in the top 10." No, hindsight can't polish a turd, and it DEFINITELY can't justify spending the 3rd overall on a 5-tech when we had so many other needs.

Eric Fisher... yeah, not even gonna go there.

And this.

It reminds me in ways of a wife that knows their husband is cheating on them, but ignores it so she can keep a smile on her face.

If he goes on to win the next 10 SB's I'd trade every 1st round pick for 12 years.

You kidding me?

If an angel of God came down from heaven today and told me we could win a SB if I punched my mother in the face that bitch would be dead yesterdsay...

Exactly.

Is going from Cassel, Winston and Albert to Smith and Fisher worth the first overall pick and 2 second round pislcks (one being the second pick in the second round?)

I don't think so and would love to be wrong.

Poor analogy. The better comparison is the price you pay for a race horse, not a car.

And if your point about paying too much for Smith is true, the same could be said for what the redskins gave up for RGIII.

I don't know anything about horse racing because I was born in the 20th Century.

I think milkman falls into the same category.
