Er'body pump the brakes, Smith will finish this year and maybe next as the starter. And that's OK.

What are we going do if we are counted out of playoffs with two or three games of the season? Play Bray LMFAO what a joke and insult to fans.

Smith's contract is going to push for Mahomes to start next year. I believe that Smith's cap number jumps up to 20 million next year. It's going to be hard for the Chiefs to resist not freeing up 17 million dollars by trading or releasing Smith.

Or they just move dead money from 2018 into the 2019 season. Pretty simple.

They have a connection rate that make coaches drool. Both Kelce and Reek hauled in more than 70% of their targets.

What are you talking about? The Chiefs will have the ability to free up 17 million in cap space by trading or releasing Alex Smith next year. It looks like the Chiefs will be up against the cap next year so if Mahomes is even close they might opt for the cap space. The only thing that prevents the change at QB next year is Mahomes being a disaster or Reid's reluctance to change.

There's a much better chance that they're jockeying for the #2 seed at that time than being out of the playoff picture. |

I posted this several times in this thread, and still see it as an option. Time will tell, but if 2018 is an option, I don't see them wanting to send Mahomes out cold to start the season. Get him a couple/three starts to have tape to build on and/or fix things from that tape in the off season.

Now there are all kinds of variables and scenarios that need to be played out & we haven't even started TC yet. We don't even know if Justin Houston legs are going hold up for the season and if Dee Ford is going blossom anymore we need him to step it up because Tamba Hali isn't going do much and DJ is another year older too. So are we going expect a turnover machine defense like we had last year? We have a lot of pieces on defense for it to be good but can it sustain that kind of fortune and that leads to the lack of offensive production that is lead by the one and only Alex Smith. Alex Smith handicaps this team so if he isn't getting the job done and the Chiefs have a hard time holding their heads above water 16 games is not likely Alex Smith can stay healthy for 16 games with his concussion history. So do you want to have our season hinge on Tyler Bray if Coaches feel PM II is suitable to back up Alex Smith by winning the #2 spot in preseason? So many variables they could drop Bray for another teams backup via trade or what not anything is really possible right now including a chance Patrick Mahomes II takes the field at some point later this season. I know you wont agree with anything I said I'm not turning my opinions into fact. It's still an opinion to say Patrick Mahomes II won't play this season. It's a darn good opinion though.
