Dallas week Version 1

KC was gone long before AS was chosen. AS was chosen over Rosen, Jackson, Keenum, Bridgewater, Bradford.

there was no amount of money keeping KC here, he's even said he took less from the vikings then the jets offered, and he had 0 loyalty to the skins (for right or wrong that's just what it was in january this year).

The biggest thing Smith is giving us right now vs Cousins, and this shouldn't be understated... Smith has 3 turnovers on the year and Cousins has 8. That's huge folks. You can win a lot of games in this league running the ball, playing good defense, and winning the turnover battle.

agree and that's that fair...but that choice to trade and 77 million guaranteed over 4 years is not chump change. Alex Smith needs to play better.

I have every right to skeptical, Bruce and Danny QB decisions lay the foundation.

that's big time for sure

We're 3-2. The Saints game sucked because we got whooped, but if I had to pick 1 of our 1st 5 games we were losing, regardless of score, that was it.

The Colts loss stings, and it looks worse and worse each week. We needed that one.

But if we beat Dallas, there is no way I'll complain about 4-2. We're due to beat those fuckdicks. Win!!

Think of it this way, before the season most would have predicted we'd beat Indy but lose to Carolina. You're always going to win some you don't expect, and lose some you don't expect. In the end you just hope to even those out.

Still early, but I'd still give the edge to KC at this point. True that AS has only lost 1 fumble. But he has put the ball on the ground 5 times lost 1. KC has put it on the ground 6 times, lost 5. That is just the luck of the bounce.

KC has 3 INTs. Smith has 2. But I still take into account that KC has 89 more attempts on the year than AS. Even though KC is in the top half of the NFL in yards and rating. AS is in the bottom third. But stat wise, they are pretty damn close to one another

Its not all stats, it is where the team stands at the end of the season.

One can spin the stats anyway they want, bottom line is KC turns it over considerably more than Smith. It's not even close.

I struggle with the Jay Gruden hate. He is highly regarded in the league as a really good coach. He may never be a Bill Parcells or Joe Gibbs, but he is well above average.

Most people will say he turned around a bad situation and added stability. That alone should give him creditability. The bigger question is whether he can take the next step. When I look at the team, I say is it better now than when he arrived. The answer is "Yes".

I also know the grass is greener on the other side, but I do not understand all the baby shanny love. I am sorry but he has not done shit yet. He may turn out to be a great coach, but so may Jay.


Just my thoughts.

Well above average is not what his W-L record says. It says he is the epitome of average. His contract is up after this season. Why would an owner with any championship ambitions want to re-hire a coach with a thoroughly average W-L history?

After 5 years of trying and failing to build a consistent winner, there is no next step for him to take. Time is up! He will either win this season or he'll be fired.
