The QB Reid chooses to lead the Chiefs

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Let's try this again. I will only be happy if Reid chooses...

Poll forthcoming.

[PGM]

59 percent...Some baters must have finally woken up

The guy who assembled the 'dream team'. The guy who made his offensive line coach his defensive coordinator.

The guy who's dominant unit (defense) was shouldered by another coach who is now dead. I can't stress that last one enough.

I mean I don't think Andy is the worst guy out there, but boy this place is ecstatic about it.

I think the fact that ***** and Romeo are gone are probably as big as Reid being hired. This time last week when it was rumored it might ***** and Ferentz I was not going to follow this team next year. Now there is at least hope. Sure, there are some negatives with Reid, but I believe he's as good as anyone available. I think the main thing has me excited is the selection of the QBOTF. I trust Reid to make that call more than anyone else out there. I hope it's Geno, but if not, I trust him.

Nothing is a given in life, but it at least gives us some hope. It also establishes the fact that our owner gives a shit.

Because he's the best coach we've hired since Hank Stram?

Who would you have preferred? Ken whisenhunt? Lovie Smith? chip Kelly? Bill Cowher?

[PGM]

60 percent winning percentage, QB guru, passing offense, connections to some pretty legit front office guys and coordinators, and 5 conference championship games. Varys gone. Number one ****ing overall pick. Yeah, that's why we are excited.

If you are going to hire a castoff coach, get one that hasn't won a Super Bowl.

Got a feeling he trades down in the draft and picks up Bray around pick 13 or 14 in the first round. Given Reid's sucess with QBs I would have no problem with this.

nope

Clark can and should inform reid that he is drafting a QB

reid can pick...but he's drafting a QB, period...that's the deal

no excuses

Nobody is going to want to trade up.

Teams trade to get QUARTERBACKS.

If a team like the Chiefs that NEED a QB are looking to trade down, there's no reason to trade up.

I'm guessing this was addressed in their 9 hour meeting and an agreement on what a QB means to the franchise. It will be interesting to see what that decision was.

Reid/Geno has the potential for great success.

Any QB FA's this year worth looking at?

As starter? Haven't we gone that route enough?


I mean we are going to have to sign a couple back ups, but who really gives two shits there

Not only no but HELL no. Lets stay away from retreads for a change. We would need a back up QB but not to be our QBotf.

[PGM]

Our 1st and 2nd for Palmer

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo/Reighters

My excitement is only if we draft a QB with our first. I got hope we do so I am excited for the opportunity. My excitement can turn the other way pretty damn quick if we pass on a QB & miss out any of the three top. Geno Barkley or Wilson. I really want Geno Smith with our #1

[CLX]

What if:

.. Reid brings Vick in?

.. Reid picks up Smith from SF?

.. Reid keeps Cassel?

.. Reid trades for Teebow?

.. we wait and see how it unfolds so we aren't bummed if he doesn't make the choice that we feel he should have?

One of the questions in the poll says something about letting him do what he must because he's the HC and knows more than us. Like it or not that's the direction we are going, I doubt that Andy is going to be reviewing all of the Chiefs fan sites to find out what the fans want in KC.

What I want is a Joe Montana in his prime type of QB.
