Also to add.. I like a team that matriculates the ball to frustrate defenses.
The Chiefs last season were 10th best in passing efficiency. The problem comes with their 26th ranked RZ efficiency, their 20th ranked run game, and conservative nature (from Smith and Reid) of settling for FGs.
I still consider this a TEAM problem to fix. Not just a QB problem. Smith does have to shoulder some blame though. He took a step backward last season, and his contract will all but dictate his departure whether he retires or not.
That's fine. There's always a time to move on for players. Next up, Mahomes. If he can learn the matriculating efficiency while also possessing the guts to let the ball fly more frequently, great! but I hope he doesn't try Kaepernicking his career away. Backyard balling, and just chuck it up bruh! mentalities won't last in the pros. I want him to be the complete QB that types like Kaepernick.. and even Smith.. haven't/can't be.
