Chiefs Would you rather be 8-0 with Alex Smith or 3-5 with Geno? - Page 45

-King- · 10-28-2013, 01:27 PM

Our offense is terrible with Alex Smith. It would likely be worse with Geno given his propensity to turn the ball over and give the other teams points through pick 6s and returned fumbles for TDs. So seeing as how we barely win with the offense we have now, we'd have likely lost more than a few games if we had Geno as our QB.

But would you rather take those growing pains with Geno, or be 8-0 with Alex and be in the driver seat toward a first round bye in the playoffs?

I do. Daily. But not worth 1.1/Dane McDerp

Yeah, Tavon Austin is really setting the NFL on fire right now.

Like Dwayne Bowe is?

WR's catching fire is all about the Chemistry they build with their QB's.

Look at the QB situation in STL and tell me any WR there is going to light up the NFL.

Tavon Austin could have a completely different stat sheet with a different QB.

Like I stated in another thread... Megatron would be used as a blocker for the KC Chiefs because Alex Smith won't throw downfield... especially into double coverage like Stafford does.

Im not sure what insight the posters constantly whining about Alex Smith bring.

As has been pointed out countless times, we know what his shortcomings are.

I have yet to see anyone say the offense doesn't need to improve.

Constantly spewing the same shit over and over and bitching about Smith isn't offering insight.

That's whats hilarious, I think some of you believe it is, like you are enlightened or something because you don't like our QB.

Yea because Bowe and Megatron are close to being the same WR.

This argument is also ridiculous when you consider who Bowe had at QB before and did just fine. Cassel, Huard, and Thigpen were just gunslingers right! Constantly winging it into double coverage right?

Oh wait, maybe the issue isn't all on Smith? Blasphemy!

Oh, so now Alex Smith represents an upgrade over Sam Bradford?

Just sayin... QB's have agendas.

Alex Smith plays it safe and does not throw into double coverage in risk of turning the ball over. Watch the Lions and tell me Stafford takes those same risks.

If Megatron played for the Chiefs, Alex isn't going to just "throw it up" for him to go get. It's not who Alex Smith is.

My point is, a WR's production is about chemistry with his QB. WR's don't all of a sudden just "suck".
Cassel trusted Bowe a hell of a lot more than Alex Smith does, thus his production was up.

We were already talking to Miami about Albert and they were obviously looking to move up in the draft because they did so and moved to 3.

By not trading down and adding a second round pick, staying at 1 and taking Fisher was Dorsey saying "Fisher is a SPECIAL prospect that we can't afford to lose"

I'd sure like to see what they did...

Nobody was moving up to 1. No chance of that happening at all.

Bowe hasn't done anything so far to earn Smith's trust at all. Smith certainly has thrown balls to Bowe this year that required trust that Bowe would beat his man. Bowe lazily didn't fight for possession. That causes a QB to lose trust.

And Calvin is a different beast. If Smith threw jump balls in between 3 defenders to Bowe, it would likely not end well.

Andy Dalton isn't exactly some gun slinger, but when you're throwing to AJ Green, you're able to throw some jump balls knowing that he will likely win.

Really? QB trust is the new excuse? Seriously, some you apologists are willing to bend over backwards to defend a guy who is completely mediocre.

True fan?

. More proof that you're a football reerun.

And yes, I expected the 2012 Chiefs to be a playoff team. They won seven games without Charles, Berry and Moeaki. They won two out of their final three with Crennel.

FTR, dumbass, SI and ESPN both predicted the Chiefs would be AFC West champs and one (if not both) predicted Crennel as coach of the year.

Excuse the **** out of me for not knowing that Crennel and Daboll were an abortion and that a player would off himself mid-season.

Dumb****.

Yeah, and you trust Reid waaaayyy too much, cabrone.

It's patently obvious to anyone with a brain that Reid needs to defer to Dorsey when it comes to acquiring personnel. Do you think Reid has been over Dorsey's shoulder throughout these FA acquisitions? **** no. He's been doing what he needs to be doing: Coaching. Period.

Andy must and should have his little conferences with John, put his two cents in, take another bite of ribs, and get the **** out of the way.
