This should be a simple poll. Who do you all think will win the backup job to Alex Smith during training camp and preseason competition? Meaning the one that gets to suit up on game days to trust when Alex Smith gets KO~ed out of a game.

Andy Reid said this is a competition so let them duel it out.

Tyler Bray 5th year man being a back up to a backup gives him the edge knowing the system and being around the guys and coaching. He is currently the #2 quarterback.

vs the challenger

Patrick Mahomes II the #10 pick in the first round after trading up 17 spots and has a lot to learn but has desire to be the starting quarterback sooner than later.

This isn't about Alex Smith but who would you trust to go in a game if heaven forbid something happens to our starting quarterback to keep us alive for the playoffs?

At the bare minimum you could make some of those posts appear on their signatures.

I often wonder how different that season would have looked if he was.

I don't know about the whole season, but I think we win if he had came in to replace Smith in the 2nd half of that Titans playoff game

All this talk about taking a year to fix Mahomes' mechanics may be onto something - in the wrong way. It might not be an accident that Brett Farvre and Mahomes were both developed by Reid - who let them let their freak flags fly.

Maybe Mahomes is who he is precisely because Reid didn't destroy his confidence and take the fun of the game trying to cram him into some kind of robo QB role.
