Ban Tigger from this thread please. It's not about Alex.

Haha haha the reason Alex Smith played so much is because he couldn't get the offense on a roll so they kept putting him out there to find some kind of success.

Also he didn't have any type of threat of competition for them to give reps too.


I can be sure that Patrick Mahomes II will over take Bray during TC before preseason. They gave up next years first and a third this year for him to move up 17 spots. They will be giving Mahomes ample of opportunities to shine.

Anyone saying negative things about the first R1 QB we've drafted in 30 years should be automatically dumped from whatever thread they're spreading their filth in.

We don't need that. At all.

Checked out your location. Makes sense now ROFL

I found that interesting, and that throw is much like a SS throwing to first after a slow-roller.

Now, I am sure Mahomes isn't the first baseball/football player to play QB, but it may actucally give him so leeway on his footwork in the sense of consistency. If that is the case, the footwork is actually intentional and developed, and doesn't appear to affect his accuracy.

Yep, and I originally (foolishly) thought that was a bad thing at the time. The more I watch of him, I see how great an attribute this is. Not only can he wing it with that arm, but it allows him to wait a split second longer which can mean all the difference.

All he needs to be is himself and people will compare future draft picks to him.

All he needs to be is himself and make a name for himself by his play on the football field.


The kid is humble and hungry. Those are attributes he will take on in the NFL.

Same here. I saw that as proof he needed work until I heard the interview. Time will tell if it is an actual benefit, or a perceived one. I still would like it to be ironed out, because you can only go so far in football on physical talent. Once that starts to fade, fundamentals are paramount (much like a shooter vs a dunker in basketball).

Thank you! I'm like the neighbor that's lived next door for years but never introduced himself, only waved politely when he saw you working in the yard. I'm THAT lazy guy.

Dude, we get it. You like Alex Smith. Its admirable that you stick to it. You dont have to derail every thread to make it all about him though. 90% of chiefs fans are ecstatic that we took a strong armed gunslinger with ACTUAL potential to be great, and you just want to keep talking about Smiths well manicured hands, his ability to set up the punter and his hidden stats. Give it a rest. Stop shitting in everyone's cereal with it.

Damn, I guess. 28 posts in 15 years? You're the Anti-Clay. :D

2002 embarrassed I called you new. Sorry

So I'll say the Kurt Warner of postors.
