Do you think Murray ever plays game starter as Chief?

[Daru]

Yes everyone let's wonder.

Do you think Murray will ever make start for Chiefs?

Reid sees him as hidden gem unit and witness as QBOTF in training? Or no Reid not aware of Smith awful and still displays status with Smith even after season lost?

Thoughts?

Me either.

Do you normally get season tickets and go to games?

We believe we've yet to see the best of Alex Smiff/Reid

Would be nice to see what he has, but I highly doubt it.

Bray and Murray are just window dressing to make it look like he's trying to develop a QB. If one of the young guys does look good he will be traded.

I swear to all that is holy, I was going to post this exact same sentiment.

Who, exactly, is that pick in your mind?

[notorious]

Nope.

He probably sucks anyway.

This franchise has no ****ing plan. They'll win enough games to be out of contention for a top quarterback but won't have the balls to trade up. They'll ride it out with Alex Smith while wasting quality years from some great quarterbacks. We'll sign Colin Kaepernick as a reclamation project and the insanity will continue. **** this franchise.

Draft Profile from NFL.com below. Pretty much a shorter, slower and less athletic description of Alex.

Weaknesses Short and short-armed with a low release point that leads to batted balls. Very small-framed with a thin waist and a body that is not built to withstand the punishment that comes in the pocket. Average arm talent. Has to set his feet and everything needs to be perfect to function well. Could stand to improve his footwork. Marginal deep-ball accuracy -- tends to overstride and forces receivers to adjust. Many passes are pre-determined and often throws to spots. Loses poise under duress and can be rattled easily by pressure. Gets too jittery and anxious (overanalyzes) in big games and has a very low winning percentage vs. top-10 teams. Long-term durability is concerning.

If Murray cannot beat out Daniels, who cannot beat out Smith for the starting job, then there is no chance of him seeing the field. I refuse to believe that Reid wouldnt start the best player at the position.

Ive seen this 'fill the stands' argument for many years and it rings hollow...most of a teams revenue comes from the TV contracts and not the gate. The gate, in fact, is split with the visiting team. The only real revenue not shared is the luxury box revenue, so if you believe that revenue is the only thing that matters, as long as the corporate boxes are filled, and not the seats for the masses, is important.

Murray play winning if play with a power of the Daru.

Yep, read an article awhile back that stated the KC organization jumped up around 36% in revenue. Can't recall if that was pointing to 2013 or more recent times though.

This sure doesn't look like the Chiefs' year that many hoped for, but there are a lot of pieces in place for them to be AFCW Champs next year.

( especially if Peyton retires, as he just has to, right? )

If Denver finds a QB the rest of the division will only be playing with themselves for the next 3-4 years.

In order to "beat someone out" for a position, there has to be a competition for said position. Nothing has been reported that there was ever a competition for either the first or second string QB position
