Smith was 100% THE key player in turning around a moribund franchise coming off a murder-suicide, it really couldnt have gotten any worse... his steady leadership was invaluable and I applaud him for that
It takes an incredible amount of drive and talent to resurrect a team as low as we were, he put KC football back in the spotlight
But lets also recognize that there is a ceiling on his abilities, everyone from NFL execs to you and me, know that he doesnt scare playoff defenses and that in those scenarios his defense has to carry the day... Alex will leave here a very rich man with a beautiful wife and beautiful life
We now have a complete team, a team able to compete with anyone... but a change at QB is needed to get over that final hurdle
Embrace it, dont fret for Alex Smith about it |
Hardly.
The man who turned the franchise around and restored the players' faith, the man who got everyone to buy in so that the Chiefs could resume being a winning franchise, is the current Head Coach of this team.
Smith was nothing more than a component, and a less than stellar one at that.
But enough.
This is the Pat Mahomes thread, and I'll be good and goddamned if I'm going to taint this thread by talking about Alex ****ing Smith.
