Doesn't have the arm.

Geno Smith is by far the #1 prospect right now.

I think Barkley stock is going drop betime the draft rolls around. His arrow will be pointing down. Geno Smith arrow pointing up.

Let's not get this thing twisted: Barkley is a very good prospect. Right now, though, it appears that Smith is going to be off the ****ing chart.

1-15 baby! Our only challenge of the year will be finding a way to lose to the Browns and Raiders.

I don't think that Cleveland is moving off of Weeden in one year, and OAK is just too ****ing stupid to worry about in earnest. JAX, however, might be a concern should Gabbert not show progress. That said, he's been better to start year two, as one would expect.

Basically, the Chiefs are likely going to be in great position, or they could be in great position via an aggressive trade. The key is to fire Pioli in plenty of time, or for the coward to try so hard to cover his own ass that he crawls into doing the right thing for the wrong reasons (saving his job and fraudulent reputation).

If the Browns pick #1, I can guarantee they're going after a QB. They have a new owner who might get rid of Holmgren. If they don't get rid of Holmgren, Holmgren is a QB guy.

But the thing about the Browns is, they're good enough to pull off a few wins.

This is what I'm betting happens. Only way to buy him more time, IMO

No way. While it's not risky at all, relatively speaking, to draft a QB today, round-one picks get a longer shelf-life.

Weeden gets year two without question.

Ironically, I believe that Herm would have done the same thing in '09.

I don't think the Browns would pass up Smith either. Let's hope Weeden really starts to tear it up, not to mention the Browns winning a lot of games they shouldn't

Smith is intriguing as all hell, but he's not talked about in the same way as Luck. Thus, passing on the former would not be something that is considered insane.

Not going to happen. This team will find a way to win more meaningless games, and **** us out of drafting Smith...

Yup.

All day long.

**** yes.

You betcha.

I'd be happy to give up more. I think Geno is better than Griffin at the same stage.

Sell four drafts. I don't ****ing care. Get Geno Smith. Whatever it takes. We've got young talent at virtually every position. **** those ****ing draft picks. Let's get the franchise QB that this ****ing worthless ****ass team ****ing deserves. The ****ing fans need Geno ****ing Smith.

Early on?

It ain't early bub.

Geno Smith has established himself as what would be if Jim Morrison, Jim Thorpe, Thomas Jefferson and Conan the Barbarian would all meld into a singular uber-entity.

Geno Smith has been kicking ass since his sophomore season. Just because the media loves to lick the scrotal area of Southern California alabaster statues doesn't mean that Geno Smith is a flash in the pan. The guy is a ****ing rock star.

Sac ****ing bringing 97 with movement. LMAO.

And where the **** is Hamas. This is insane.

I'm proud of Sac, he has seen the QB light. KEEP THIS SHIT UP YOU ****ING STUD!!

sac is all grown up

Here's a really fun game for us to play, guys.

I got a PM from someone who wants to join the list. He/she wished to listed as "Anonymous"

Go.

It's not that I've seen the QB light, it's that I've seen the QB. The right QB in the right place at the right time. It's ****ing destiny. DESTINY!!!! Do you hear me?!!! DESTINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Geno Smith is a legit stud. Big time.

IMO, he's as good as I've seen at this level. All the tools, the attitude, the smarts, the leadership, the drive, everything. He exudes confidence. He nails the 50 yard + bombs with uncanny accuracy. He is a pocket presence prodigy.

Does that mean that he's a guaranteed Hall of Famer? No, but given the right circumstances, he's got a chance to be very good at the next level at minimum.

Add to that that the Chiefs appear to be flogging themselves into a quickening death spiral that will finally allow them to get a chance at someone like Smith. And, remarkably, the screws are getting put to the thumbs of the Pioli despotic, meglomaniacal rule. He's a fraud and it's now official in the eyes of the press as well as the fans. He duped the ownership with himself, his hand picked QB and his never ending parade of coaching tree lackeys who have never accomplished anything outside of their association with Tom Brady.

The implosion we currently are witnessing is the perfect storm of events that is going to finally lead the team and it's fans to something that we haven't seen in the past 29 years - a first round quarterback, and it has the chance to be one who appears to be, in all facets, a true franchise level guy.

I don't want Geno Smith to be the Chiefs pick because he's a first round quarterback. I want Geno Smith to be the Chiefs pick because he's THE quarterback.

Geno Smith: football nerd


Originally Published: October 3, 2012
By Ivan Maisel | ESPN.com

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Geno Smith is a naturally gifted artist who turned down admission to a fine arts magnet school in his native south Florida in order to focus on football. The West Virginia senior is an English major, taking one class in Shakespeare and another in American literature, even as he has become the most productive college quarterback in the nation.

The artist-athlete is a hybrid rare enough to be celebrated, a reassurance that a violent sport has a place for the right side of the brain. It is a neat hook for a story, and it has next to nothing to do with why Smith has become the early-season frontrunner in the Heisman Trophy race.

To understand why Smith has turned Milan Puskar Stadium into his own version of "NCAA Football '13," stroll to the other side of Smith's skull. It is the combination of intellect and backbone, not artist and athlete, that has fueled Smith this season.



[+] Enlarge
Rob Christy/US PresswireWest Virginia QB Geno Smith is always studying the field.


And what a trip he has taken. In four games, Smith has completed 141 of 169 passes for 1,728 yards and 20 touchdowns. He has not thrown an interception this season (in fact, the No. 8 Mountaineers (4-0) haven't turned the ball over in their last three games).

His passing efficiency rating of 208.37 would obliterate the FBS record of 191.78 set last season by Russell Wilson of Wisconsin. Smith has played so well that his next 14 passes could fall incomplete and he would still be ahead of Wilson's record. Given that he has thrown only 28 incompletions in four games, those passes aren't likely to hit the ground.

Against Baylor last Saturday, Smith completed 45 of 51 passes for 656 yards and eight touchdowns in West Virginia's 70-63 victory. After the game, he said he would celebrate by returning to the football building to watch video of No. 11 Texas, the defense he will face Saturday night.

Which is all you really need to know.

First of all, Smith is a football nerd. He did exactly what he wanted to do Saturday night. There's nothing he likes to do more than come into the football building and watch video, except maybe to download game or practice video onto his iPad to take home and watch.

Head coach Dana Holgorsen referenced the 2.0 GPA that the NCAA sets as a minimum for a player to be eligible.

"If he had to have a 3.6 in order to play football, he'd probably have a 3.6," Holgorsen said in his trademark rasp. If a voice can have five o'clock shadow, Holgorsen's has it.

"He's a very intelligent kid," Holgorsen said of Smith. "His goal in life, his focus in life, is to learn as much about football as he possibly can. He loves to read. He loves to draw. He's got some hobbies. But I guarantee you, when he's reading and drawing, he's still thinking about football."

There was the checkdown Smith called in the fourth quarter against Maryland that resulted in a 34-yard scoring pass to Tavon Austin to seal a 31-21 victory. There was the eight-yard pass to Austin that Smith suggested to Holgorsen during a timeout on the final, clock-eating drive against Baylor.

"We didn't want to run any out of the pocket play-action stuff, where we get him out of the pocket, because he was a little nicked up," Holgorsen said, "so we didn't have any of that in the game plan. But he knew it was going to work. ... He came to me and said, 'Run this.' And we did, and it worked."

Smith has come a long way from the confusion and adjustment to Holgorsen's offense last season. There's a reason that West Virginia has won eight consecutive games.

"Most people don't understand that the quarterback is really like supposed to be an offensive coordinator out there on the field," Smith said Sunday morning. "I feel like I don't see it as myself against those defensive players, because they don't come up with their game plan. I see it as myself against the defensive coordinator. So I'll get plays and I'll get looks, and I'll figure out what they're doing, which formations, which personnel, and I'll figure out ways to counter it, so the next time I got that look, I would know exactly what to do."

Smith's confidence in his mental acuity knows few bounds. His confidence in his physical ability is not the same. In fact, it is why he pushes himself to study.



“
I'm not one of those guys who strike you as an imposing player. I honestly don't think I'm that great of a player. ... But I understand the game and I'm far ahead of my peers when it comes to that.
” -- West Virginia QB Geno Smith

"If you look at me," he said, "I'm not one of those guys who strike you as an imposing player (West Virginia lists him at 6-foot-3, 214). I honestly don't think I'm that great of a player. There's pretty much a lot of guys out there more talented than I am. But I understand the game and I'm far ahead of my peers when it comes to that. I know defense like a defensive coordinator. I know offense like an offensive coordinator. It puts me levels ahead of those guys, and 90 percent of the game is mental, which allows me to ... end up with these crazy numbers at the end of the game, because I'm always making the right decision."

Smith has parlayed his work ethic and self-discipline into national attention. Only when it comes to the Heisman Trophy, Smith's belief in himself loses its voice. After the Baylor game, he repeated what he has said all season. He is "not interested" in the Heisman.

His refusal to engage in the Heisman discussion, it turns out, is more of a defense mechanism.

"Isn't that impressive?" Smith asked, a smile dawning upon his face. "I don't know how I should feel about it [the Heisman], actually, to be honest with you. I do know that it is the top award for individuals in the country, meaning you're the best player. But ultimately, it's not something that I'm striving for. It's just that I play so hard because I'm trying to win games."

Whatever the motivation, Smith's ability to stiff-arm the accolades and maintain his focus is as rare as it is powerful.

"There are a lot of guys," Holgorsen said, "who will sit and get on the Internet and read article after article about themselves, or turn on the TV and record their interviews. He's a guy that just doesn't do that. He would rather read a book or put a [video] on his iPad and go home and study. ... He'd rather do that than go check out what the club's like tonight or what these specific girls are doing in the library."

There's a reason for that, the head coach said about his quarterback.

"He's the most competitive guy I've been around," Holgorsen said.

The above article is fabulous. *drool* for Geno.

That article makes me want him here on this team even more.

Easy on the overhype.....

I would trade all of our 2013 draft picks in order to move up to get Geno. We're not going to be picking #1 and I think the talent we have will win us enough games to not pick in the Top 5...So we'll need to trade up to get him like Washington did to get RG3. This team has talent everywhere...Re-sign Bowe & grab a few solid free agent acquisitions & draft Geno & roll with it.

LMAO Why did DarthCarl get banned again?

The thread title says "Geno Smith fans roll call"

Not "Douchebag haterz roll call"

I agree wholehaertedly.



LAChiefFan

LMAO Defensive already? She doesn't even know your name and you act like you're married.

Do you not see my signature?

GTFO.

Nice. I stand corrected.

Wait. Why are you holding that 40 pound box? Why are you opening it? Please God, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Quickly, here's two stats for Geno: 20 touchdowns, 0 INTs.

The only problem we have is winning more games than the Saints, Browns, Titans, Panthers and Bucs. Jets BTW, looking like they will tank as well.

I'm not sure we need be concerned with anyone but the Browns on your list. Oakland is another concern IMO.

Ahhhhhhh, yes they did look like sheet last week at the new Pile High. We still have Cassel starting tho.

How many of those teams need a QB? I can live with having to pay a king's ransom in draft picks, but if they just fold their arms and say "we're not trading out at any price, he's ours", that would suck.

I think we line up pretty well for drafting Geno. Even the bad teams we're competing against have QB's already.

I'm 100% in.

Oh?

WHICH ONE IS IT, MAN?

There is no room for hesitation or doubt on this list. I can only edit this thing so many times.

If you want Geno Smith on this team, you gotta REEEEEAAALLY want him

ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo
Geno Smith has more touchdowns (9) than incompletions (8) on passes thrown 15+ yards downfield this season.

There is literally no way Scott Pioli looks at Smith and sees an NFL QB.

:drool::whackit:

Was listening to Rome today on my way home, he was interviewing Mack Brown about UT-WVU this weekend. Rome asked Brown if he thought Smith was as good as RGIII, and Brown said yes without hesitation, and offered a pretty thorough explanation as to why, but I don't have a link.

Oakland.

Still wasn't added to the list. I am disappointed SNR.

LMAOLMAO

Me too. I just wanted to show my support for Geno!

Burn third world countries for Geno.

Start tire fires for Geno.

Save pandas for Geno.

Hug your grandma for Geno.

All for Geno.

You know who else hasn't been added to the list?

Every single ****ing Chiefs fan who will be watching Geno decked out in red and gold hoisting a Lombardi trophy.

I can't add them all to the list.

Some of you fellas are going to wish you had been quicker on the draw. When the window closes, it's gone.

I'll do one more comb-through later, but then I'm ****ing done.

I'll call 900+ posts through only four games pretty damn good. This thread could crack 20,000 by the time Chiefs draft day rolls around.

I'm not on the list. Only been pimping the guy for a year or two I guess. :harumph:

You also disappear for months at a time to go play Minecraft or whatever gay shit it is you do during the offseason. If you stuck around, you could be doing cool stuff that real men do. Real men watch KurtCobain get banned multiple times.

If you can provide evidence of Geno support from that long ago, you'll absolutely be added when I feel like it.

I just bumped Sac down a few notches for his appalling behavior in the Barkley thread. He is now below lcarus, who sadly hasn't matched my expectations when I figured he'd beat out a bag of dildos on the depth chart.

the browns are our nemesis. they shit the bed this year and that new owner will draft geno.
we need to pray pioli gets the **** out of kc already and we get fresh blood who do what it takes to get geno if he keeps looking like hes gonna turn into a nfl baller. barkley is always right there so is wilson. Were looking good we just need Egoli GONE!!!

Bump yourself down you filthy one who sucks the penis.

You said "Geno or..."

You need to redeem yourself.

Precisely the reason why I am not on the list and won't campaign to be.

I think Geno is without a doubt the best QB available in the draft. However, I was slow in coming around to it. I am not going to be like others and weasel my way on. However, I will acknowledge his success, his talent, and my desire to have him as a QB over the others that will be available.

It is through my own judgement that I am not on this list and I can accept that.

If I were a GM though and were 6 months late, this would be disastrous

Fifth?!!

Are you kidding me?!!!

**** **** ****ity ****!!!!

Too late to read the WOT. Cliffs sacc? I don't understand "fifth"?

genos running a "air raid offensive"..really on the go whatever the defense gives you take. "I can make all the throws." "Not getting caught up in the hype" He studies the bresus and rodgers style of play to get his own game better. And hes a student of the game. Takes an ipad home with all the defenses to watch and study every week.

Basically Geno is the ****ing truth and we need to ricky williams the '13 draft if needed to get his guy with our first pick

I am now the Fifth Element.

http://elizabethcarroll.files.wordpr...ultipass11.jpg

Geno is the Multipass.

Excuse me.

The 65 yard multipass.

I never got the "fifth" part either..musta missed it

Wow, and you say I do gay shit.

NTTAWWT...

I am familiar with the Air Raid system and have an solid understanding of it's philosophies, or so I like to believe.

Your definition is ignorant IMO.

You're free to prove me wrong but my experiences with the Air Raid are not remotely close to what you said.

Sacc.





Absolutely


Love



It.


Nobody watches the 5th Element these days.
Totally just rose to the occasion and destroyed it IMO. Congrats sir.

He bumped me to fifth on the list when I was previously seconded.

Not that it matters though...

Only Geno matters.

I dunno ya **** im just answering your question about the sum of that article. It says Geno fits the air raid system well....

Actually, I really like Minecraft. It's pretty fun.

That is because his HC worked at TT and grew up essentially in an Air Raid system.


TBF, what you posted isn't what the Air Raid system is about.

You honestly could just Wiki it. If you struggle with that though...

LMAO

My demotion of Saccopoo reminds me of that ST: Voyager episode where Seven is put in charge of a command unit in engineering. To make things more efficient, she assigns everyone borg designations.

Seven of Nine: Six of Ten, this is not your assignment.
Harry Kim: Please, stop calling me that.
Seven of Nine: You're compromising our productivity... I'm reassigning you to chamber maintenance. Your new designation is Two of Ten.

What it's about is that Holgorsen is insane offensively and has found his maestro in Geno Smith.

The Air Raid is a quick set, multi-read offensive system that has receivers running off multiple routes (three per) depending upon the defensive alignment.

The key is having a QB that can quickly diagnose the runs off the snap and go through the progressions quickly to find the best, most immediate target.

With Geno Smith running it, he's capable of not just hitting the dump off, but finding guys downfield (go watch last week's WVU/Baylor game and see the guy hitting his recievers in stride 35 yards+ downfield). Smith is insanely fast in working through his progressions and finding the most potent threat.

Right now, he's on pace to shatter the completion % mark and it's not the system. He's not throwing 40 yarders against air. The guy is a freaking prodigy.

I feel like i've seen Geno in shotgun with 4 wide a lot so far this season. I just was telling you what I got from reading the article.
BTW Geno does fit that offense well...hes an athlete that can sling it all over the field. Go back to lapa and drink some more caiprinhas.

Erection

GET HIM TO KC!!!! HE NEEDS TO BE SLINGIN' TD'S TO BOWE N BALDWIN IN THAT KETCHUP AND MUSTARD NEXT YEAR

huauauauhahahaha caraa, vc vai beber comigo?!!!!!! espero q siiiim passeiro.


se vc esteja no columbia, me da um PM. gostaria de beber/falar contigo

Seriously.

Imagine a guy who can hit dudes running 45 yard post patterns and those guys are Baldwin and Bowe.

****.
