Just stop trying to pretend he was an elite prospect. He was a 2nd round pick in a year where teams were hungry for QB's.
I don't get your Geno-thing.
Is the "gotcha" supposed to be Smith?
Because, that's pretty fucking pitiful.
Anyway, the Chiefs finally pulled head from ass and did what they should have been doing all along. And because of it, and IT ALONE, KC will actually have some real success and no longer be a pitiful speed bump along the road for real franchises working their way to championships.
It's very sad that the Chiefs chose to pretend like time decided to stand still for them, to keep practicing dumbassed team building philosophies that yielded the same, old, tired, result, but if that's what it took to launch an all-out war against dipshits running around blathering nonsense about "defense winning championships", and games "being won in the trenches", then I am happy to have suffered a bit for the most noble re-education of said morons.
Smiths whole look is truly one of extreme jealousy, it must be kinda like what Salieri felt as he watched Mozart effortlessly tinkle out a ditty for the adoring crowd... knowing he could never please them in the same way
I'll say this much for Smith; he has absolutely perfected the ultra-glazed look of disinterest that I achieve every time he steps onto a football field.(gif #5) [Reply]

Yep, and that raises two questions...
1) will he throw caution to the wind in an attempt to fend off his rival, putting his body on the line every chance he gets if it will help make a play?
Or
2) will he become even more cautious than usual, trying not to suffer a game ending injury and thus giving Pat his opening to steal the job? [Reply]
He's gonna play at some point this year. Just think about it. Unless Smith plays like a different QB. Even though he's raw, Smith isn't good enough to keep him on the bench. Let's be real, 2PM isn't playing behind a still in his prime Joe Montana that is untouchable. It's freaking Alex Smith lol. A matter of when. [Reply]

This will be Smiths best year ever. Reid will call plays for him to go downfield with Tyreek outrunning everybody. Mahomes is breathing down his neck and he knows it. Smith will get a 3 year extension after his performance but will serve as a backup in 2019 [Reply]

Reid won't embarrass Smith by just benching him. If that happens there will be an "injury" that besets Smith, some shoulder injury, that knocks him out for an indefinite period of time. [Reply]

I think Mahomes playing the week after the bye is a real possibility. [Reply]

I know I know, 99% of us are dead tired of that old saw
But this is a different team, and a different time in Smiths career than it was with Kaep
With Money showing off like this and threatening him yet again on a team thats been 100% his longer than anywhere else... Smith might finally give us more of the guy from the Indy playoff game
The playmaker, not the game manager
Money is going to bring out his best, thats my hope anyway [Reply]

I was leaning "1", now I'm 100% certain it's "2" all day long.
a) You have to have the physical skill to pull a "1", and those days are LONG GONE.
b) Smith is who he is, and the mastery Mahomes has hinted at over the last few weeks all but guarantees that Smith's reclusive and safe tendencies will absolutely be exacerbated.

Dude, it's not even funny. Chiefs are on the verge of actually being a great club, an important club, and you wanna' sling that sorry hash out of your ass?
Seek your Pastor on Sunday and pray, pray, pray that God will have mercy on your blasphemous ass.
