I disagree. We've convinced a LOT of people that:

1. Scott Pioli needs to be fired.
2. Matt Cassel sucks.
3. Romeo sucks.

People have come on SOC and posted things like "I wanted to give these guys more time but now I am on board with your movement!"

There's basically nobody out there beating the drum that the Chiefs need to take a QB. Start beating it.

If you're going to play the "what's the point" card, why do anything at all?

The decision on Pioli has been made, for better or worse.

If we're going down the "what's the point" route, might as well just sit on our thumbs and do nothing.

That's the thing though. We have solid statistics, and hard numbers to back up sending Scooter and Romeo packing. They've completely ****ed this franchise. It's not unreasonable. But we go from saying "Bench Cassel" to "Fire Pioli" to "Draft a 1st round QB". What's next? "Put Coke machines on the concourses" or maybe "sign player x" Where does it end? And at what point do we start sounding like douchebags? Because so far, I think we've come across really well and been a positive force for the fanbase. I could see that changing if we start changing dynamics significantly.

Now all that said, I'm not dead set against it, and see the points everyone has made. I just don't tend to lean toward it thinking it's a good idea.

When? when when when...

This franchise has never, EVER went top shelf for a quarterback in the draft, it has to STOP.

Bad year for a QB? who cares... this team hasnt developed ANYTHING at that position, isnt it time to start trying? and if he fails, half of the other teams in the league are looking for failed number #1 QB's and we can atleast, finally get value from that trade.

Its even likely that they screw the pick up, sad to say... but thats ok for now, you have to start somewhere, but just START PICKING QB'S, every single year.

Thats all that truly matters anymore, why has this franchise waited so long to try it? fear of failure?... failure is always going to happen when swinging for that position, and KC might have less experience at it than any other team in the league... but they HAVE to start trying.

QUARTERBACK, CLARK.

ed* 'never ever' is obviously false, but hey, gimme some consistency

I dunno that demanding a QB in the first round this coming draft is our best bet. Lots of experts saying that there is no solid 1st rd qb until the mid to late rounds. Personally, I would be ok with them drafting a QB in the 2nd round like a Tyler Wilson.

I think there is about a 2% chance Wilson falls to round 2. Round two you are looking at guys like Glennon and Bray if you are lucky.

Where do they come up with that? The top three Qbs, stat wise, all match up almost exactly with Luck, RG3 and just about any past QB you can think of.

The "experts" right now are wrong as hell. This time last year, RGIII was being mocked late in the first, which many posters were laughing at, too.

No less than 3 QBs go in the first this year. While there might not be a blue-chip, no-brainer, this is a deep, talented draft for QBs.

Ironic that the season the Chiefs may end up with the #1 overall pick is the season all the "experts" are saying it is a lousy year for QBs. It's almost as if they don't want the Chiefs to have a QB.

That's just the thing - ALL of the "experts" aren't saying that at all.

Scott Wright thinks it's a good year for QBs. Dan Shonka thinks it's a good year for QBs. Matt Miller thinks it's a good year for QBs.

Just because Todd McShay and Mel Kiper have bigger stages from which to speak doesn't mean they're the most knowledgeable.

Those guys are all on the Net, not on TV.

Hence my comment about the size of their "stage".

You get bombarded with Kiper and McShay anytime you tune in to ESPN.

Mr. Flopnuts 12-13-2012 08:11 PM

There will be 2 QB'S drafted in the top 5. Seriously. Smith and then Wilson. And if Murray declares and has a good combine he'll go top ten. I'm confident of that.

This isn't a comment on what the banner should say, but to me it's not time to get cute with our first pick. If there is even a 5% chance that one of the QB's you want won't drop to the second round then you don't risk it. QB is too important. If I have a choice of 3rd QB on my board plus a top 5 pick at another position or 1st QB on my board and 2nd round player at any position I am taking the latter every single time. QB is just too damn important.

DeezNutz 12-13-2012 08:49 PM

There is a greater chance that Pioli is actually a normal guy, the victim of countless terrible lies, than Wilson falling to the second round.

BossChief 12-13-2012 09:01 PM

I know the statements have been made that specific demands will not come from SOC, but let me try to make a point here of why we need to make a statement that we want a quarterback with that top pick...

It doesn't matter how many Piolis we fire...Romeos we replace or how many first and second round picks we use on receivers and linemen to block.

Until this team drafts a first round quarterback and develops him, it's all just a waste of time.

THE #1 PRIORITY THIS OFFSEASON IS DRAFTING THE RIGHT QUARTERBACK
everything else (coach, GM etc) is fighting for the second most important aspect to the offseason.

It doesn't matter if we hire an elite coaching staff and GM combination if they pick the wrong qb.

I think we need to make a statement that WE DESERVE A FRANCHISE QUARTERBACK.

I agree that getting a franchise QB is key, but Pioli must be fired. The latter is still priority #1 because his incompetence makes any progress of any kind, literally, impossible.

Scott, you insecure ****, I know you're reading this thread because you cannot help yourself; be a man, for once in your professional career, and resign.

We can fire Pioli next year or any time in the future.

This might be the only time in the next 50 YEARS we have the #1 pick.

If it comes down to one or the other, we better take the QB even if it means keeping Pioli.

This.

Scott has got to go. If we end up with a top 3 pick, any GM worth his salt will take a cursory look at the QB position and go draft one in the first round.

If they don't, they shouldn't be a GM for my team.

Don't agree.

This situation is so bad with Pioli that I liken it to an individual having an arsonist as a best friend. Yes, you can buy your dream house today, and it's true that this particular house will never come on the market again. However, the arsonist will burn the mother****er down on day one, so the purchase is moot before you ever finalize the contract.

Pioli is truly that bad. We must expunge this loathsome ****.

The arsonist MIGHT burn it down on day one.

He might also get caught after the first month and get taken to jail, leaving you with your dream house intact.

Would you rather HAVE your dream house with a CHANCE of losing it versus never having your dream house at all?

The very thought of it is silly.

But it's moot, he's getting fired. Running another banner with "fire Pioli" on it is a complete waste of time.

But oh well, it's not my movement. I'm just one person.

I don't think there's any "might" about Pioli destroying the situation. Furthermore, if he's empowered to draft a QB in the first, I think he'll be in KC for at least two more years.

So you think Pioli could "destroy" Geno Smith?

A drafted QB could be here for over 10 years, not two.

And again, it's moot. Pioli is getting fired.

By the way, if we suddenly fly a banner that says something about drafting a QB NOBODY, especially CLARK, is gonna think that's a de facto "keep Pioli" sign. Nobody.

The point about Pioli has been made. No amount of banners is going to change it. Not flying a "fire Pioli" banner isn't changing the subject or giving up. FLYING a "fire Pioli" banner is completely redundant.

Hammock Parties 12-14-2012 08:56 AM

Agree completely with Htismaqe.

The banner needs to be either pro Breaston or pro QB.

Or maybe....

I hope you're right about Pioli getting fired. I'm a little worried about it.

I think we can safely say that Crennel is done and that the team will have to get a new starting QB (although I'm not certain that it will be with the #1 pick). I'm not so sure about Pioli, unfortunately.

patteeu 12-14-2012 09:06 AM

I think you're better off hammering the consistent message (that Pioli is the root of fan discontent) home and letting the rest take care of itself.

ALL I WANT FOR XMAS IS A NEW GM - SOC

If Pioli is already as good as gone, you still win.

Well again, if Clark is bringing Pioli back after EVERYTHING he's done and all of the losses, NO AMOUNT of banners will change it.

We've made our point. All we can really do now is wait. Or add to our message, which is what I think we should be doing...

We'll have to agree to disagree. Whether the point's been made or not, I think it's valuable to continue to make it until the objective is accomplished. And any "add" to the message inevitably subtracts from the support SOC has developed, IMO.

Advocating drafting a QB subtracts from the support SOC has developed but continuing to fly "fire Pioli" banners doesn't?

The whole "fire Pioli" message is what created the divide in the fans in the first place.

There's NOTHING divisive about wanting to draft a QB. Nothing.

I don't perceive a divide. Not a meaningful one, anyway.

The people who support SOC are obviously all on board with "FIRE PIOLI".

If you add "DRAFT GENO" to that, you're going to lose some of the people who want to fire Pioli and draft Barkley or fire Pioli and sign Alex Smith or fire Pioli and get two mid-round QBs to compete with Brady Quinn, or whatever.

If you add something less specific, like "DRAFT A QB IN THE 1ST", you'll have less erosion of support from the fire Pioli crowd, but there will probably still be some who would rather defer to Pioli's successor (who might choose to trade for a QB instead, for example).

I wasn't EVER suggesting we mention Geno Smith by name.

By and large, the people who don't want a QB are also the people that think Pioli is staying (or should stay). We'll NEVER reach those people, regardless of our message.

Again, other than beating a dead horse and satisfying some fans who just can't be patient, what purpose does another "fire Pioli" banner do?

There was a considerable backlash to the SOC message in the beginning and there's still people on Facebook that think it's classless and deranged.

All the MORE reason to get the "draft a QB" message out.

Trading for somebody else's sloppy seconds is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

You never mentioned it, but it has certainly been suggested. I use it as an extreme example to illustrate the point.

The primary purpose is maintaining a consistent message and the secondary purpose is to avoid coming across like some fantasy GM wannabes.

This has already been accomplished. No need for any more banners.

That perception existed the second the first banner flew.
