I hate to be so cynical, but CHunt sees this strictly as business. And even when they suck, business is good.

He already has your money for 2015. Plus, he gets to take his wife on that nice European Vacation he promised her, so he can do that and write it off.

They will play Alex Smith until the O-Line gets his spleen lacerated again, just like last year. When they're paying a guy that kind of $, he's going to play, no matter how much he sucks. They'll literally play him until the year is over, or he gets injured and can't go.

They'll play him again next year, because they've already committed to paying him.

They'll draft a token QB in like the 4th or 5th round just for face time, but I'd be willing to bet you their first pick will be offensive line, probably another tackle, and the other picks will be defensive backs and interior line. If they pick any skill position guys, it will be fourth round or later. They might spend a third on a running back, since Charles has had two major knee injuries now.

The Chiefs seem pretty complacent with being mediocre. And they have been for quite some time now.

If they are going to stick with Smith next year, I'd hope they draft o-line, because we sort of need to fix this aids infested dumpster fire before a new QB gets here

Probably right but I won't be committed. **** that. Smith is garbage. Career ending injury would be awesome. I hate to be that guy but I'm so sick of retread garbage.

Then don't be that guy. It's not cool. Seriously. Pretty douchey to wish physical harm on anyone, and then verbalize it so everyone now knows you are that type of guy.

What you need to hope/wish for is that someone takes an objective look at the situation and sits him and plays Daniel and Murray to see what they have if anything.

I still think that this is a pretty good football team that is having some bad decisions being made by the guys who have the most affect on the game. But they need to realize that the long term solution at the position needs to be found right now and Smith is not that guy.

But you don't be a prick and wish harm on people to achieve your perceived goals for something as trivial as being a casual fan of a sports team.

Yeah, dude had a ruptured spleen last year, and that can kill you, so it wouldn't be hard to assume that is a big reason why he's tanked so bad...

During this era, which I'll define as starting with Priest Holmes (2001 season) through this season with Charles, the Chiefs collective record is 103-130, including 0-4 in the playoffs.

Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, and Jamaal Charles were all great backs, but the Chiefs were too reliant on them at the expense of developing a franchise-caliber QB and a passing game that is necessary to win a Super Bowl in today's NFL (those who point to Seattle, underestimate the value of Russell Wilson).

Even with Trent Green... who put up great #'s, he was still part of an offense that relied on Priest Holmes/Larry Johnson with a passing game that was almost exclusively based on the playaction pass.

It is time to stop over-relying on the most fragile position with the shortest shelf life in all of sports (RB), and finally make it a priority as a franchise to invest/develop in a legit franchise QB and a 21st century passing game.

Whatever I'm tired of seeing his garbage ass overthrow typical NFL throws. I'm venting. I couldn't care less anymore. He's a bum and needs taken out. Only way is injury so I hope he tears an acl this season.

As some one who lives in the Bay Area don't feel to bad about it 49er fans were calling in to radio stations all the time hoping Alex would get hurt so they could see what they had in lap and Alex was so much better with harbaugh then Reid

I hate it. The only way he's missing games is injury. It'll be Pioli-Cassel all over again. **** Alex and his "gigabytes"

Then don't say you "hate to be that guy."

You are simply that guy.

We are what the Chiefs made us

The real question is what RB do you guys expect to carry the bulk? Seems to me Davis is the better of the two backs you guys have but West is ahead on the depth chart. I got a waiver to blow in FF.

West seems to be the better back.
