Just pointing out that you're a giant hypocrite, that's all. You don't get to tell people to leave Alex alone now that he's traded and gone and then go off half-cocked into the Mahomes thread and (unprovoked, mind you) and talk about Clay's treatment of Alex from the past compared to how he treats Mahomes.
Well, I mean, you can. But it just makes you a giant hypocrite, that's all. Hypocrite. |

Why are we comparing a 22 year old man to a 34 year old veteran?
Alex Smith was straight garbage at 22. Alex Smith couldn't move the ball against Tennessee when we needed it the most. His absence is a welcome change Bring on Mahomes |

But Mahomes gets full credit for it because he actually attempts it, completes it, and creates a positive gain for his receiver because he does things other QBs won't, or can't. |

Smith was the anti scoring machine. He did well last year going long to Hill but our red zone percentage was still crap and bottom of the league. Hes fools gold. Mahomes will increase out scoring a ton.

They think they can go farther with Mahomes. That is the expectation.

The hype on this board is off the charts. Which is historically normal of ANY 1st round rookie QB. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, because the organization clearly trusts him or they wouldn't have moved on from Alex Smith so fast, but he very well could be Jay Cutler. We don't know how he will react under the lights, versus NFL defenses.
His problem won't be throwing TDs or being aggressive. He's going to be good if he limits his interceptions. That is literally going to be it for him. He could be a chucker who is too aggressive and struggles to make the right decision. It's very possible. It's also possible he's the next Brett Farve or Ben Roethlisberger. We just don't know. But at least, he has a high ceiling. That is all you can ask. |

Way too many variables to just say a playoff win is the only acceptable outcome. Its not 100% on Mahomes.
