GO AWAY YOU ****ING LOSER. LEAVE NOW AND NEVER COME BACK.

Alex Smith expresses his desire to return to Chiefs in 2018

Quote:

The Kansas City Chiefs' season ended earlier than they anticipated.

The No. 4 seed in the AFC coughed up an 18-point lead in a 22-21 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Saturday, setting up an offseason of uncertainty.

Chief among that will be quarterback Alex Smith.

Despite leading Kansas City to a 10-6 record and AFC West title, the Chiefs are said to be open to trading the veteran pivot. The team set up its future by trading up in April's draft to select quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Smith has just one year left on his four-year, $68-million contract, and intends to see it through.

"Yeah, I mean, you kidding me? I signed the contract," Smith said when asked after the game if he'd like to stay in Kansas City, according to Nick Shook of NFL.com.

"I'm under contract for another year, so like I said, I'm not thinking about anything else. Right now, obviously disappointed. Like I said, I felt like we had a good chance, and it's gone."

Under Smith's direction, the Chiefs raced out to a 5-0 start to the season, hit a lull in which they lost six of their next seven games, then won their final four contests.

On Saturday, Smith threw two first-half touchdowns to give Kansas City a 21-3 cushion, but went 5 of 10 for 33 yards in the second half.

The 13-year veteran wasn't prepared to dive further into his future so soon after the loss.

"The game just ended," Smith said. "We'll get into all of that in the next couple of weeks."

A number of small plays, that we had control over, killed the Chiefs.

Until we start seeing that we won't fix the problem...

I mean 4th and 3 or 4 sure but 4th and 9 is not likely to succeed when they know you aren't going to run it.

I think it would have been 63, but I would have let him try. He just might have made it.

All enthusiasm will be lost if Alex comes back.

They aren't stupid enough to keep him around.

See what I'm getting at?

THIS!!!That is the point ALL Alice’s girlfriends miss. Why was he even in a 4th down? Because on third down he thought his skirt might get stained and he turtled up and took an awful, unneeded sack. Mahomes, along with probably two thirds of the other starting QBs in this league make a play on third and either get the first or get Butt Kicker in range. Its really that simple. Its not the worthless attempts he made, its that he had to make them in the first place. Better than avg QBs make the plays regardless of their QBR.

If anything it will be a breath of fresh air of unpredictability that might make watching the Chiefs fun again.

Sick of watching these limited QBs follow the script to a perfect point and do nothing to adjust during the course of the gameflow. Just run the play exactly how it is and take whatever is given whether it decides the game or not oh well.

If Mahomes is anything like Russel Wilson then I am all in on that new fun. I am more than fine having Mahomes human error be the deciding factor. If you're going to lose at least do it in legendary fashion and not watch your team slowly choke it away by doing nothing, which is what we have watched from Alex Smith, Matt Cassel and everything inbetween for the last decade.

I'll take a Brett Favre on his back interception to decide the game than some clock management do nothing but watch the other team drive down your throats and suck your lead away crap. It's slow and painful. Put in the fate of someones golden arm, let that decide a Chiefs win or loss, at least that way it feels like you go down swinging.

That is it in a nut shell, Alex is boring to watch. When the game is on the line, I feel like I am watching the Chiefs slit their wrist and slip into a warm bath.

Give me the Kid out there he stares down field until the play is over, never say die! I cant take another year of watching Milk toast Alex play QB.

Not sure Mahomes is the messiah, but do yourself a favor and listen to what some dude, last name Talib I think, said about Patty M. Pretty sure he mentions “reading defenses” and having an “AK for an arm”. Guy has played a few games in the NFL. He might know what he’s talking about.

More fans showing no appreciation to the QB that stabilized this franchise.

Patty has no idea what he's getting himself into.

Go away. What senseless dribble.
