Chiefs Would you rather be 8-0 with Alex Smith or 3-5 with Geno? - Page 14

-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'm guessing this team doesn't come close to 8-0 in 2014.

Predicting that an NFL team won't win 8 games in a row, way to go out on a limb.

Also, TheBadGuy posted some news that Geno Smith was in the final 4 considerations for the #1 overall pick about a week before the draft.

If the Chiefs had a 2nd round pick, we probably would have taken him

That's one helluva bold prediction there.

Geno has 16 turnovers so far this year. That's 2 per game.

Go look at each game we've played and add in 2 extra turnovers, then try to tell us we'd still have a winning record.

Patently absurd

Why would you think that?

It is a big, and baseless, assumption to think that there would be bigger rewards later with Geno Smith. It is just as likely that he would continue to fail.

And 8-0 is a hell of a lot better than "at least we aren't 2-14". We have been waiting for the chance, and this is it. The future is NOW, and there is no reason to believe we would be in this position any time if we had Geno.

The real poll should be

"Would you rather be 8-0 with Eric Fisher or Geno Smith?"

This.

Also, let's not act as if Geno hasn't had moments where he played at an extremely high level, either. He has his team at .500 at the halfway point and that team wasn't expected to win 4 games all year. He won offensive player of the week not long ago and is the most effective deep ball thrower in the league.

If we were 3-5 right now with Geno and someone said to you, would you rather have Alex Smith and be undefeated....
