Foolishly, you forget that as a unit, the Defense is the most important aspect of a winning team. And when your defense comes equipped with a bottom 10 run defense, it's not going to cut it against the major playoff teams. A competent offense comes in second in the formula for a championship, with the QB and RB being the most important pieces. Sans Jerry Rice, Running backs are more commonly known for their contribution to winning a ring than receivers have.

Julio, Dez, Ochocinco, Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson, Fitzgerald, Terrell Owens, Moss have won absolutely nothing. And they have been the best in the business since Jerry Rice.

Jesus **** you guys are annoying. Keep the Alex Smith shit in the other 36384 threads you've ****ed up.

Eligwe and Kpass would be the first two guys on my list for potential surprises.

If one of them does, and the everybody else stays relatively healthy, we might have our best defense yet.

That's ****ing bullshit excuse for a "game manager quarterback". Why didn't he control the TOP? First downs and touchdowns could have won us the game.

BOOM

LMAO

That's why we are all so excited about training camp. (hint hint)

I am quietly excited about Hunt, as well. I don't know why people fell out of love with Spencer Ware, but it's happened. He's going to be a hell of a bruiser with hopefully Hunt being the lead back.

Wonder when we'll see a depth chart. But I heard Petro make a good point - Reid hasn't done anything weird with training camp. When a dude is listed as the starter, he's usually the starter. They don't play games with the depth chart.

That.

Veach had a hand in the process too so you could say business as usual in that area.

Just like the second half of the Colts playoff game...or the first half of the Pats playoff game...or the ending of the 2011 49ers/Giants NFCCG.

Big Ben's numbers in that playoff game compared to Alex Smith (who the Alex Smith haters blame the loss solely on)


Ben Roethlisberger 20/31 224 7.2 0-1 27.7 72.5
Alex Smith 20/34 172 5.1 1-1 33.3 69.7

So basically Alex Smith played just as good as Big Ben. Neither played well but it goes to show so if our run D and our RBs played better maybe we win that game.

Not saying Alex Smith played well, he didn't, but blaming just him for that playoff loss is ridiculous considering Big Ben played no better.

Lets also not forget Eric Fisher holding penalty and how Alex Smith/Maclin had to bail us out of that 3rd and long because of Kelce's immaturity.

Also, how many drops did we have that game?

Not once did I ever say Alex Smith is elite and Tiger had never said that either. I said he is a good QB and a great game manager and we can win with him (Reid has said everything I have said himself). Nothing more, nothing less.

No one is talking about wide receivers, you walking foreskin.

Hair and image consultant ROFL

Ware's started out hot the past few years but has been broken down in late December and January.

Maybe that changes this year with a healthy West and Kareem Hunt but if the Chiefs can't run the ball effectively late in the season, an early playoff exit should be expected.

Dear Lord,

Please make me a mod, that I might ban hammer fools from threads for bringing up Alex Smith playoff losses as positives while we are talking about training camp. I shall make them stick to thy topics, or I will smite them with thy own ruinous hand.

Amen.

For sure. When the time comes, you still have to run the ball. I think Hunt fits the Reid scheme as well as any back we've had not named Jamaal.
