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."

No. Crabtree, Davis, and Gore were his 3 main weapons. Pretty good ones.

Wilson had 10 targets from Mahomes. 10 catches for a buck forty-seven. Keep him around.

I think it was a pretty good throw by Smith, but the decision to go deep when you need 9 yards for a first down...just seems like a bad decision whether it came from Reid/Nagy or Alex himself. 3rd and 4th down were flat out botched.

Um where the hell did you pull that % from? I’m thinking it would be the other way around and that they would go get it 99.9% of the time. Especially at that moment in the game. To make a heroic catch or game changing play is what these guys live for.

At the cost of a broken neck? Doubtful.

Our own ****ing QB that wasn't used 49er anal condom trash.

Conley is a big receiver. Let’s not throw him away yet without giving him a season with Mahomes. Pat won’t be afraid to throw those tight window throws to the sidelines.

I've posted it multiple times, just look at the route combo. Why is the only viable option versus Cover 2 on that play a post 30 yards downfield? Alex led the league in deep passing completion % and it was 56%... the most crucial play in the game and you go with a route that's as likely to be completed as a coin toss

Davis caught 2 tds and Crabtree was nowhere to be found and hobbled by injury like every year he was on the 9ers.

It's even more bizarre when you look at how conservative the playcalling was for the entire second half up to that point.

Instead of going for an aggressive but smart play (let's say 10-15 yards), they go for a 40 yarder into coverage with a safety waiting to blow it up. Very strange decision from the HC/OC/QB.

I'm sorry but why the **** are we still talking about QB wins from college?

That stupid ****ing narrative should have died when Clemson still made the playoff this year as the #1 seed.

You’re acting like the ball was overthrown or not on target. That ball was placed in a good spot. Don’t act like it sailed like Mahomes int did.
