Everyone is just bored waiting for 1pm.

On another note, I predict the Bengals to at least cover the spread today, and possibly win.

If you can't appreciate what Smith did for this franchise, you don't deserve to have anything nice.

He beat one playoff team woopty ****ing do.

He has played admirable this season and plaussible we could win another playoff game but our hopes for going deep in the playoffs are tempered because of Alex Smith. That could be an episode of Myth Busters.


We are excited to see our future and our future is bright with Patrick Mahomes II.

O.city 12-31-2017 10:44 AM

I actually agree with tigger

Alex has been good for this franchise. Yeah, he hasn’t been a super star but he’s been a good qb and has played well this year.

Plus he’s a good dude and has done all they’ve asked. He’s just tapped out

wazu 12-31-2017 10:45 AM

It feels like way too much of my happiness for the entire offseason is resting on Mahomes doing well today.

The Chiefs deserve more credit because people thought it would be a better division?

The NFL's regular season is shit, has been for years. Of course, if there weren't Chiefs fans who were completely content with division titles and beating mediocre teams, Arrowhead would be mostly empty on game day.

Yep

I’m as ready for Mahomes as the next guy, but Alex hasn’t been near what some here out him at. He’s been good not great, great at times and bad at times. Basically what he was billed as. It sucks that it took this year for him to let loose but a lot of that is the players around him.

He wouldn't pull the trigger last year but we draft his replacement and all of a sudden he grows a set of balls and lets it rip. Then he goes in a null in November and talk about replacing him so then again he steps up his game. I don't think he would have played near as good if his job wasn't on the line and he had someone nipping at his heals.

RunKC 12-31-2017 10:59 AM

I’ll appreciate Alex when he starts winning playoff games over credible QB’s. Otherwise he is no different than Bono, Grbac or Huard.

The goal has always been to win in January.

RINGLEADER 12-31-2017 11:01 AM

Alex Smith has been more of the same mediocre QB the Chiefs have been trotting out there since Martyball became a thing, sand the Montana years.

Which is what many of the early critics of considering him were afraid of.

Some look at the past five years and see a needed stabilization of a franchise. I see five more lost years.

Unless Alex Smith delivers on the promise of the first five games of 2017 and plays with some guts and wins a SB, that's all it will ever be to me.

Chiefs fans deserve better and quit accepting mediocrity. The Chiefs are the leagues most mediocrity team in NFL history.

RINGLEADER 12-31-2017 11:04 AM

I may not be an 'Alexsexual', but I never root for him to fail. Not as long as he is the Chiefs QB.

Yep. Sucks our QB who's having a career year couldn't win the Pittsburgh, Giants or Bills games at the end when he had the chance. Or tie the game up vs the Jets at the end to force OT and possibly win that one.

Difference between 10-6/9-7 and the #4 seed and 13-3/12-4 and the #1 or #2 seed.

Depends what kind of lense you wanna look thru.

He’s been the same guy that he was going to be. He’s playing a tough position and isn’t a superstar. He’s reliant on the guys around him. It’s no surprise that when he has good ones around him, He’s had a career year.

He won’t be here next year. That’s fine and it needed to be done. They’re probably maxed out with what he can do.

I just don’t see the reason for the hate. He’s won a lot of games and put them in position in the post season. Criticism for not winning there is fine, it comes with the territory but again, being a guy that relies on what’s around him makes it tough for me to get too pissed at solely him for a lot of it.

Reid's career win percentage is 60% - so we're at par for the course with 9 wins in 15 games.

Can't fault people for being excited about winning the division after the mid-season struggles then stringing off some important wins especially against the Raiders and Chargers. Both of which were must-win games.

Should keep it balanced though. There was plenty of hate and opposition of Smith in every GDT for every game this year. Even folks wanting him injured.

Goose and gander. That would be the right way to function, but we'll see how the mods do with it.

I said a week ago, Mahomes should not be judged much at all.. good or bad.. on how he performs today.

It's 1 piddly, meaningless game started by a rookie.

Anyone making his performance a clear indication of anything is silly, trolling, +/or stirring up pure drama. With that being so obvious.. just let CP do what it does.. what it's been doing every week anyway.

I don't hate him individually. I hate watching him play most of the time, because he plays the position like a coward.

I hate that the Chiefs wasted five more years on a retread QB who was never going to win in the playoffs.

I hate that some of his mouthbreathing fan bois followed him here and foisted their cancer upon us.

I hate that people defend this as something other than a waste of five years by pointing out all the regular season wins.

Forget that.

I honestly would have rather lost a lot more games, gotten higher picks, and had more young talent on the team around Mahomes for 2018 and beyond.

If not for Smith, our future could well be completely different

If Smith hadnt been available, they might've picked up a lesser vet who flamed out 2-3 years down the line, prompting them to draft a lesser QB than Mahomes whom we would now be stuck with... just as a for instance

This idea that we were supposed magically soar to being the best and trump the Seahawks, Pats, Broncos, Steelers with a roster of broke dick offensive weapons for the first 3 years of the regime is insanely stupid. Dorsey screwed our chances with Maclin (overpaid and also tampered thus losing a 3rd rounder) and with the Bowe contract that put us in debt for many years.

Sure, some guys were hurt. That’s the nfl.

At some point, alex needed to carry them a little. I realize he’s not that guy and can’t, but that’s also why they’re moving on.

Alex is dependent on the guys around him. It is what it is. I appreciate what he’s brought here, but I don’t think it’s wrong to be dissatisfied with the playoff result, which some put on the qb.

Per usual, it’s not black and white

Personally, I'd say being competitive in the very few real tests per season, and winning in mid-late January.

Being thrilled about beating a 9 win team in the playoffs is kind of pathetic (for the franchise, not fans), or winning a home playoff game against anybody because there are players in the NFL who were born the year that last happened.

There's obviously no shame in lower expectations and enjoying whatever you find entertaining.... personally, it would be pretty nice to see them in games that really matter more often than once every 25 years while not wondering how they're going to **** it up this time.

There’s a lot of contradiction here though. Admittedly the chiefs have been the anti clutch franchise for 25 years. So now that they’re actually showing some signs of turning that around with their play and their decisions, we aren’t supposed to be excited?

Yep. Blame the franchise not the fans.

20 years ago the Patriots were just happy to "make noise" in the playoffs.

Now a season without a a Superbowl win is a failure, and a season without an AFCCG appearance is a crushingly disastrous season

Chief fans will change once their franchise changes. Steelers have numerous Home divisional playoff wins. Chiefs have 0

Can't blame the fans

It's possible that without Alex Smith we never get Mahomes

We won a playoff game (finally!)

We have the QBoTF

They did a good job rebuilding this franchise, so far

Again we’re back to the lense you view it thru I guess.

It isn't. This is what happens when fans of other sports that are casual football watchers give opinions.

The majority of Alex haters were completely fine with the acquisition of Alex up until season 3 when he continued to play like a pussy outside of a few games each season.

After so long, it became boring, predictable, and not good enough.

The start to this season was amazing and we hoped Alex had changed his stripes.... and then the Steelers, Buffalo, Giants, Jets, etc games happened where Alex looked asshole.

It's time for him to prove it in the Playoffs.

The Steelers are resting basically their whole team. Browns have small hope of not going defeated

Pats start everyone in five degrees temps. That's the smart way to roll imo. Don't **** with momentum.

O.city 12-31-2017 11:52 AM

No such thing as momentum

This is year 5 and expectations are higher. We’ve won the division before, we’ve won a playoff game before, we’ve made the divisional round.

This isn’t Andy's First year here. I mean he said it himself...”raise the bar as much as you want. We’re up for the challenge.”

It’s time to go to the SB.

I think the bar this year has always been the AFC Championship game. We make it there, and Alex finishes his contract in KC.

Ho-lee sheet slow down Michael Irvin. Temper expectations just a bit.

Tell that to Bellicheck and Brady. Bill never rests the starters. They go into the playoffs hot every year.

I didn't say that, and I mentioned it's pathetic for the franchise, not the fans... and I also said there's no shame in having lower expectations.

I'm just personally not excited by beating mediocre teams in a very mediocre league. I might be more excited if I thought it would lead to something, I guess. :shrug:

Chiefs have been a #1 seed & blown it...a #2 seed & blown it...a #3 seed & blown it...this year they are a #4 seed & history says they'll blow it.

You need to be dynamic in the playoffs & they've never a QB to do that. Mahomes actually has the potential to do it.

Will he? Who knows but at least there is hope.

I have 0% faith in Alex Smith.

Aww, look at all the people jumping to respond to your shit trolling. Tiger and Clay and others can wrap the forum around their little finger, but you've never figured it out. Sad face.

Can you imagine? LMAO

If Pat does half of that I'll be thrilled.

Too bad Irvin is more brain dead than black Bob

Sure seeing as he can rest them next week.

stevieray 12-31-2017 12:20 PM

gonna watch a playoff game knowing it's a loss before the game starts?

might as well be cutting yourself, it would be more productive.

Poor Chiefs martyrs.
