Geno Smith fans roll call
NEW THREAD HEADER (11/17/12):
The list is gone. We will all be Geno Smith fans when he gets drafted by the Chiefs. For historical documentation's sake, I'll keep the list in a separate post on this thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=3314 WHY GENO SMITH? If you're wondering if Geno Smith is right for you, check out this brilliant post by Saccopoo: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=5388 Next, we have a few GIFs you may be interested in from the Oklahoma game. Insane potential. These are the elite throws that very few QBs can make. What more can I say? Geno Smith can be a franchise QB in the NFL, and the Chiefs need to take a shot on him. GIF #1:
Spoiler!
GIF #2:
Spoiler!
GIF #3 (My favorite):
Spoiler!
HOW DO WE GET HIM HERE? Glad you asked. I posted this checklist earlier. It probably belongs in the thread header, and will be updated as the Chiefs close out their season and start a new chapter in their franchise story. Preparing for Geno Smith's Arrival In KC Checklist 1. [X] Lose games and acquire the #1 overall pick 2. [X] Get Pioli and the Patriot Way cronies the **** out 3. [X] Hire new GM/coach OPTIONAL (but highly recommended): 4. [ ] Re-sign/tag Bowe, who really wants to play in KC with Geno 5. [ ] Re-sign/tag Albert Last edited by RealSNR; 01-04-2013 at 12:32 PM.. |

If the Chiefs lose this weekend, the season is over. At this point, it would be in the organization's best interest to play Stanzi, and one of two things will happen:
1. Stanzi surprises and is legitimately "the guy." Cool. 2. Stanzi doesn't surprise, sucks complete ass, but allows us to tank the season, thus being in position to draft "the guy." Cool. |

We can't **** this up this year, line we did with meaningless wins last year. Win 2 games or less. Yeah it sucks for fans etc but it's for the greater good. This time next year we could be sitting with the same skill guys or even better skill guys and this guy at qb.
Although I think there is collectively too much individual talent to lose that much but it could be the perfect storm |

Last year we messed up. Start palko last three, 5-11. Colts finish us off and rivers doesn't fumble a gift away, 3-13. Bears miracle, 2-14 and a coin flip for rgIII.
Mirage of a season ending in hope and 7-9. Don't **** it up this year, do what you should have years ago and suck shit, clean house. New gm new geno smith qb and let's move forward |

I'm on board with Tyler Wilson and Geno. Have been campaigning for those 2 for quite some time now.

Week 3 Heisman Watch: Geno Smith leads wide-open race as Matt Barkley falters
Week 3 of the college football season is in the books, and the race for the 2012 Heisman Trophy has been dramatically altered. USC's Matt Barkley is the latest preseason favorite to stumble, throwing two interceptions in a huge loss to Stanford. These are the players who currently stand the best chance of actually winning the Heisman Trophy. Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia -- Smith is off to a great start so far this season, with 734 passing yards and nine touchdown passes (with no interceptions) in his first two games. He is completing an amazing 88 percent of his passes and has an efficiency rating of 209. He is on pace to run and pass for 60 touchdowns. Granted, he is putting up these numbers against awful competition, but we all know he's a very good quarterback playing in a passer-friendly system. It's going to be difficult to for him to maintain this level against Big 12 competition, but he'll still be very productive. As with Robert Griffin III last year, he's not expected to lead his team to an undefeated season, and so Heisman voters will look to his overall numbers and how well he performs against Big 12 traditional powers like Texas and Oklahoma to gauge his worthiness. Given his solid name recognition, his potential for an elite statistical season and his odd status as a Mid-Atlantic player competing in the Southwest, he's at the top of this Watch ... for now. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoot...arkley-falters |

Geno Smith not fazed by Heisman, RG3 talk
The comparisons? Well, they're inevitable. A quarterback with that kind of efficiency is rare. This time last year, Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III had thrown 13 touchdown passes to just 12 incompletions through three games. Through two games, West Virginia's Geno Smith has accounted for 10 touchdowns (one rushing) and thrown just nine incompletions. The rarity has necessitated comparison, and Smith has already taken notice. "I’ve been hearing all about that, and I want to put a stop to that real soon," Smith said. "RG3’s a great guy and he’s doing good things in the NFL and I’m only a college quarterback hoping to get where he is. We’re two different guys. He has a different style and I have a different style, and I’m pretty sure the only thing we both hope to do is just win games." After Week 2, Smith's also the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy, which Griffin won last season. Like Griffin, Smith would be the program's first Heisman winner. "It’d be better for the program and the exposure that we’ll get, but it will not make me feel better about myself or a notch on my belt. It’ll just be another trophy that I won," Smith said. "I understand that the Heisman is the biggest individual accolade in sports, and I’m honored to be mentioned among the likes of guys who worked so hard every year and who have done it in the past, but at the same time, my only goal is to win the national championship and I really want to make that clear." Still, Smith looks like a new man this year and West Virginia a new team ready to make a big dent in the Big 12 during its first year in the league. "Something happens to guys when they’re seniors," coach Dana Holgorsen said. "His body’s different. He’s gained weight. He’s bigger, he’s faster, he’s more confident, so he’s improved and he’s been practicing like this since the beginning of August. Watching him translate it out there in games has been fun to watch as a coach." That talk of improvement? Smith says he feels like it's "overblown." The scariest part for defenses? He doesn't feel like he's playing much better than last year, though statistics suggest he is. Smith completed 66 percent of his passes through two games last season, and never once had a game in which he completed more than 74 percent of his passes. This year, Smith is completing 88 percent of his passes in two games. "Honestly, I don’t think I’m playing that great. I’ve been making some good decisions, but I’m really inaccurate at times and guys have been bailing me out," Smith said. "I think some of it’s been overblown. It’s only been Game 2 so I think I can play a lot better. We’ll see. That’ll come with time." Instead, Smith credits shorter throws to Tavon Austin, who turns short screens into 10+ yard gains, or Stedman Bailey's ability to climb over defenders for acrobatic catches. Holgorsen? It's safe to say he disagrees. Opponents likely would as well. "Obviously, we stress completion percentage, but just monitoring the game and having an idea of where we want him to go with the ball, I feel like he’s doing a really good job of that," Holgorsen said. Five or six times already this season, Holgorsen says, Smith has avoided a likely sack. Sometimes that means tucking the ball and running on a broken play, like Smith did on his 28-yard touchdown run against Marshall. Other times, that means buying a couple seconds to dump the ball to a back in the flats. "He could be a running quarterback if we wanted to, but our offense isn’t going to let you put that tag on him," Holgorsen said. It's still early, and Holgorsen and Smith don't need any reminders that life in Morgantown will get much tougher in the weeks to come. Maryland treks to Morgantown this Saturday, but for now, Smith has validated his status as the Big 12's best player, and emerged as arguably the best player in college football. "We have to get a lot better, we’ve got to play a lot better and clean some things up and I think we’ll continue to do that. It’s all a learning process. ... as of right now we’re not near where we want to be come January," Smith said. "The hardest thing to do is not get complacent after you win 3, 4, 5 games and think you’ve figured it all out. Once you do that, that’s when you take a loss." Implied within Smith's comments is that his team will still be playing come January. So far, he and his teammates have played well enough where the prospect is easy to believe. http://espn.go.com/blog/ncfnation/po...isman-rg3-talk |
