Putting QBs in Tiers is a thing, not to be confused with how the Chiefs put opposing QBs (and their fans) in tears. Following is a list of the Chiefs starting QBs, excluding the minor players (like you, Palko)

1962-1974 Len Dawson 158 starts
1973-1979 Mike Livingston 75 starts
1980-1982 Steve Fuller 31 starts
1980-1988 Bill Kenney 77 starts
1984-1987 Todd Blackledge 24 starts
1988-1991 Steve DeBerg 52 starts
1992-1993 Dave Krieg 21 starts
1993-1994 Joe Montana 25 starts
1994-1996 Steve Bono 31 starts
1996-1998 Rich Gannon 19 starts
1997-2000 Elvis Grbac 47 starts
2001-2006 Trent Green 88 starts
2006-2008 Damon Huard 20 starts
2007-2010 Brodie Croyle 11 starts
2008 Tyler Thigpen 11 starts
2009-2012 Matt Cassel 47 starts
2012 Brady Quinn 8 starts
2013-2017 Alex Smith 76 starts
2018-present Patrick Mahomes II

Tier 1 is pretty easy - Super Bowl Winners: Mahomes, Dawson.
Tier 2 - Montana, Smith, Green. Joe made it the CCG. Some bag on Alex Smith for not being Mahomes as if Mahomes was an option during those years. Smith and Green made us feel like we might have a chance, even if we really weren't there yet.

After that, it gets murkier - I have trouble remembering the '80s and '70s
Tier 3 - I'm going with Kenny, DeBerg, Grbac
Tier 4 - the rest - i don't feel like sorting out the bottom

Make as many tiers as you wish.
I am not prepared to die on any hill you thought I stood on.
