We will have to agree to disagree. Everyone here seems quick to point out every incompletion and/or sack. And we have been told countless times he can't throw downfield.

I do agree with your last sentence. New QB throwing to new receivers to him... and it seems to be coming together. Getting better by the day. Exactly what you would want... and a much bigger item than our 3rd/4th string QB play.

I agree with you on the last point. I guess I didn't think of it that way. It's a good newsworthy sign that our starting QB is gelling nicely with his receivers.

Lets see if Alex doesn't break 1st when the hitting starts before talking about him as the franchise QB also.

all new QB's in a new system


right now the QB's are going to look rough in comparison

Offensive line play would be responsible for a lot of that issue. We have two 1st rounder draft picks at the tackle positions. A 2nd rounder and an early 3rd rounder at the guard positions. We have a 2nd round draft pick at the Center position. And, we have a 3rd rounder as our top backup player. While it is not a given that all will pan out to be All-Pro's, that much high talent could/should be able to blend into a very nice O-line sooner than later considering all have experience but Fisher... and we know where Fisher was drafted. Plus these guys are getting a serious test everyday in practice from quality completion, with the pads on, and some serious hitting vs the shorts and helmets practices of years past.

His playing style deals with a lot of passes on the move, or scrambling to pick up 5 to 10 yards for a 1st down. With his injury history he'll be injured and/or out for the season if someone lays a big hit on him. Every QB in the NFL gets lit up in a game. I personally have zero confidence that Alex can survive a season with his playing style, and what waits for him when he's out of the pocket.

Fair enough.

8 games

Come on, you've been here for how many years? The 3rd/4th string QB play is always a big deal. Bray's the newest great white hope.

Bray is the closest thing this team has had to a first round quarterback in a very very long time.

Of course that should cause a little excitement.

i think this was the case, on his 2nd or 3rd regime and Tennessee, wasnt recruited by the current coaching staff and they all clashed, everyone threw him under the bus and the rest is history

at the end of the day, Bray moves onto an NFL roster with real coaching and Tennesse now has those same coaches and will continue to suck

Im pretty sure Bray was recruited by Kiffin no?

I missed any mention of how you thought Bray did from your camp reports. Care to recap?

Tennessee doesn't have the same coaches.

correct, to run wait for it...... the WCO

How sad is it that you can say that...about an undrafted player.

IMO he was the most impressive player at camp.

He routinely threw perfect 30-50 yard bombs that were PERFECTLY placed.

I went from "meh" to "I'm really excited to see what this guy does with bigger opportunities"

I think he has some REAL potential if he can put it all together because I don't think there are more than 5 quarterbacks in the NFL that can make throws I saw the kid make in camp.

So the tools are obviously there; it's all just contingent upon his mental approach, I take it. Did he seem poised? Frustrated at all? How did he deal with pressure?

Boners for everyone!

In pads?

Very

so he was through three coaching changes @ Tennessee then?

That's my point, he could have stayed at college this season and said **** that on even the new coaches because he soured on the last coaching staff. Obviously sought bad draft stock advice but that's to the Chiefs benefit now and me as a Chiefs fan, so I'm not complaining.

and Kiffin sold him out pretty much.

So yeah

I'm not even about to get excited over training camp performance.

ROFL

he's the next tom brady but even more special

Nobody said that.

i'm thinking more Jay Cutler-ish

Who would complain about that?

I sure as **** wouldn't.

Compared to the flaming ass-garbage we possess, "Jay Cutler" might as well be "Tom Brady" for this ****ing team.

Too long, didn't catch :D

Remember, most of this is coming from Reid Ferrin, so it is all just Chiefs propaganda. :D

Sounds like Bray is getting twice as many snaps as Stanzi.

Gay for Bray Membership Seal

Yeah, but its not about someone named A. Smith or E. Fisher, therefore its true!

Petro with Dorsey talking about Bray. [Paraphrasing]

Petro: "What's missing...? He has a million $ arm..how did he drop out of the draft?"

Dorsey: "It happens, we are constantly looking for talent like that. But let's be honest, he has a long way to go...he is young. But we are very excited for him"

Petro: "Whats more important, the arm or the brain...?"

Dorsey: "Both...he has got great physical talent, he needs to work on his footwork in the pocket though. And he will, he works real hard at this. And lets not forget those other two QBs in front of him are very good too..."

Dorsey on 810: A lot to learn RT @JohnMiddlekauff people inside the organization they are VERY high on [Bray]


get your jizz cups out

The Program ‏@theprogramkc37s
Dorsey likes Tyler Bray's physical tools. Says he still has a lot to learn. Wants him to work on footwork in the pocket...

:LOL: Exactly.

Notice how they left out the Bray Interception but bolded the Stanzi one from practice today?

:whackit::whackit::whackit::whackit::whackit::whackit::whackit:

He's pretty much the talk of the town up here at the moment. Everyone that has went to camp is raving about his tools.

I think you're going to see a strong push from the fan base to play this kid sooner rather than later.

Andy Reid doesn't give a **** what the fans want. And rightfully so.

I doubt very highly that Bray even suits up this year for a regular season game unless there is an injury.

I'm pretty sure that goes for about every coach. "Those that listed to the fans soon become one" and all that jazz.

I agree that Bray needs a year to sit, but when people see Alice being Alice trying deek and dunking his way down the field there are going to be a lot of calls for the guy with the cannon for an arm.

Tyler Bray has since backed off his SEC is the same speed as NFL comment. More on The Program coming up NEXT. #Chiefs

Tyler Bray, "It's a lot easier to play fast now when you know what you're doing."

Someone needs to mock up a chiefs version of this t shirt. Id buy.

Petro hitting hard on my points earlier. "What did this guy do to not get drafted? Run over the Governors cat?

Oh yeah... Dont get me wrong, I hope this kid is the real deal and our QBOTF, but the bias on this board is unreal.

Sure. There is a bias for players with um.. talent. I confess :D

Im excited about this kid as well, but most of the A Smith haters only focus on Brays goods (Blow off his negatives) and explain away Alex Smiths successes and highlight his negatives. Its funny.

But yeah, Im digging on this kid as well and hoping he is the GUY for our future. How cool would it be if we found a QBOTF who took us to the promise land and he was UNDRAFTED? Im excited for that possibilty as well, no doubt.

Im also hoping A Smith can do a kick ass job of holding the fort down while this kid learns how to kill it in the NFL, so I'm paying attention to his positives as well as Brays.

Bray needs to sit for a year

He needs to mature and develop the basics before he gets caught up in the playing/media whirlwind

I want them both to take us to (and win) the Super Bowl. Again and again and again and again....

heheheh


BCD likes players tools


heheheh

I don't know if this is posted in here, but Reid said that Bray will start the 3rd quarter on Friday and could go into the 4th, with Stanzi mopping up the rest of the time.

Good Bye Dick!!!!

Smith gets the 1st quarter, Daniel the 2nd. Everyone on the roster will play Friday.

Ha!

Eat balls, Reid Ferrin. That was what I saw as well.

Dude does not have good feet at all.

I really don't trust these tweets.

There is irony in this.

I am guessing you didnt hear the full inerview, rather you are going off of a tweet...?

yes!:D

People also forget that this team could trade Bray for a high pick if he makes some preseason noise two years in a row.

That's honestly what I think will happen.

Alex Smith for two years.
Bray gets traded for a pick.
QBOTF drafted in 2015.

****. That. Noise.

I didn't say it was what I wanted. Just what I think is most likely.
