The whole offense is back intact. It's a bottom third of the league offense as is. The last 4 seasons rankings were 21st, 25th, 27th, and last season 21st. It shouldn't be a bottom tier offense with the upgrades made throughout the past 4 years, yet the results are the same. Personally, I think the offense... hell, the whole team... responds in a positive way if Mahomes can open up the offense to the level of the talent on the team. |

Im good with him sitting the whole year even if he does get it pretty quickly. Nothing will hurt him sitting the whole year. Now the idiot people that say he should sit 2 year make me wanna bang my head against the wall, just no no no no. But I mean if we are pretty much out of the playoffs and we want to play him the last few games of the year then ya sure there isnt no harm in that either

Whether it's this year or next, the Chiefs record will take a step back in the first year of the Mahomes era while he earns his lumps and bruises. Waiting till next year only delays the inevitable fall from playoff contention. Now, if he can't spit out a play, diagnose a defense and get his players in the right position, then he needs to sit until he can. |

See this is my thinking too why I said I trust Andy Reid to make that decision. Also there is no way on earth he sits two years that's by the people who love Alex Smith.
On another note bronco fans I know were trashing our pick of Mahomes I can hear the fear in it the rest of the AFC West are scared if he becomes legit. |

It all depends of his progress this year and of what Smith shows this year. All scenario are on the table, that is that Mahomes could start in 2018, sit another year or battle Smith for the starting QB position. And I don't think right now Dorsey and Reid are leaning towards one or the other. You have to see as you go along and eventually make a decision. |

Absolutely. And I think that's what surprises me most is the seemingly way that most Chiefs fans are in agreement. I just can't envision a scenario where the chiefs are any worse than 10-6 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It's a system that takes 2 years to fully grasp. He's gonna have to learn the verbiage. The guy didn't have to make full field reads or use a huddle in college. It's a massive jump. Impossible no, but ideally if he doesn't have to play, he shouldn't . Just my opinion. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hell, I bet even Andy himself would say it would take multiple years for his QB.. any QB.. to fully be comfortable in thoroughly running it like the back of his hand. I say the chance % is very high that Mahomes is starting in 2018.. and despite that.. I bet there will be growing pains. Probably growing pains that Andy would like to avoid.. so Mahomes doesn't overly rely on athletic backyard balling, and end up like Kaepernick. You sound like an impatient child on Christmas Eve.. throwing a fit cuz you can't unwrap your big shiny gift instantly. So obnoxious lately... so disappointing. |

This entirely. You cannot replace actual game time experience sitting on the bench to learn from. Sitting watching Alex Smith really? Pffft I don't care if he has the 3rd most wins last four years the defense stepped up with turnovers galore and gave the offense prime field positions that we won most of those games with field goals. |

No personal disrespect to Mav, but coming on here with 'Alex Smith' in your sig, being known as a Smith lover previously, and insinuating that we have another 2 years of Smith as the starter is not a good idea (If that is what he was doing). It makes sense on absolutely no level, but we've been through this a hundred times. I do not question that the entire offense takes a few years to know fully. But that doesn't mean it takes that long to play. Last edited by pugsnotdrugs19; 05-16-2017 at 04:40 PM.. |
