If the Chiefs had made this same exact offer for Freeman, would you guys still be as pissed? I wouldn't but that's because I love Josh and want to see him play every week.
No because Josh is a legitimate NFL starting quarterback. Would take in a heartbeat. Big arm and tons of upside.
All I'm saying is the outrage over the trade is f'ing ridiculous. There is NO BETTER OPTION at this point, none. KC QB's turned the ball over 29 times last year, this will vastly improve next season because of Alex Smith. They have a top 3 RB in Charles, a legit WR option in Bowe when he wants to play and if he has a QB that can actually get him the ball, and Moeaki is a talented TE. The weapons are there and the defense showed to be great at times and terrible at others (while the offense didn't help them whatsoever). Depending on the draft and FA's I think the Chiefs are atleast 6-8 W's better next season. If that doesn't excite you after going 2-14 then I don't know what to tell you. This team should compete for the AFC West title and once they get in the playoffs who knows but atleast when that time comes, Alex Smith and Andy Reid have been there before. The chances of the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl are a hell of a lot higher with AS at qb than any rookie in this draft class
LOL, no. The chances of getting to the Super Bowl with Alex Smith are 0%. If he couldn't do it with Harbaugh and that 49ers roster, he's not going to do it in the AFC.
Someday the Chiefs will win a playoff game again. And on that day, Alex Smith will not be the quarterback.
Which rookie qb would you rather have start over Smith next season?
Pro tip: no matter what name you throw out, you'll be wrong
Pro tip: you look like a giant dumbass in this thread.
Someone in this draft will end up with a better career than Smith (probably lots of them because Smith's career is poopy). I'd rather have Wilson, Geno, or Bray for starters.
I'd rather take a risk on an unknown who has the chance, small as it may be, to be great. My concern is not about 2013 for the Chiefs. Winning 8 games in 2013 your goal? Smith is your guy. I'd rather go with upside, take a risk and fail, then do the same old play it safe boring old Chiefs crap we always see.
