And the “slobberfest” just might, might be a function of the fact that the guy was mangled on the field and nearly died from being septic yet eventually worked his way back to play again. That’s nauseating? You’d rather blame him for the fact that he was a complete professional dedicated to the team who just didn’t have the generational talent of his predecessor? Again, blame Reid and Veach. They were running things in 2017 and kept Alex as the starter. He didn’t sulk and throw a fit demanding that role because of his “feels.” |

I told my brothers after the Titans playoff loss in 2017 that if the chiefs had really wanted to win, they should have played Mahomes.
The way he tore up the league all throughout 2018, there is no doubt in my mind that those playoff defenses would not have had an enough time to figure out how to defend him. |

I just don’t think there’s anyone to blame but Reid. Full stop. How would you ever hold this against Alex Smith? And do you guys want to hold this as a black mark against Reid? |

Counterpoint: Reid wrecked Belichick in the NFL opener in that season with Alex when the Patriots didn’t know what was coming with Hill and Hunt. If they busted Mahomes out in the playoffs, that might’ve done the trick timing-wise to not give defenses the time to adjust properly.
