I just don't understand why this thread would even exist once the season is over. This IS a 9er board, is it not? If people would like to follow and discuss a player who is no longer on the team. I'd suggest they go to the (insert player's team) board.
You are right. Good idea. We should get rid of every thread not niners. Baseball, football, college, cars, girls, screw em all! Niners!!!!! My wife just asked me about the weather tomorrow, I said "b***h weather doesn't play strong safety!"

KC's defense has speed on the edges and beef in the middle. This will be a tough game for them due to the scheduling but I am not overwhelmed by Kelly's stuff.
I haven't made my pick yet. Want to look at some games first. Had a good week at pick 'em after a 10-6 start. Missed on San Diego and forgot to mark the Miami/Indy game. Got the rest of them. (yes, I did pick Seattle)
I just can't ever pick against the niners! If I were a betting man...I'd be broke! LOL! I can't even pick against KC because I respect Smith and Reid too much. As objective as I try to be...my heart is firmly attached to my sleeve! My first week was a disaster...this week should be 11-5...a huge improvement.

I will pick against Smith if I think they will lose. However, at this point I just don't think anybody has a real good handle on how good that team can be. They have a lot of talent on that team but it will take them a while to learn how to play to win with confidence. The Dallas game may prove a critical turning point. It was a team that many picked to win but the Chiefs pretty much had the upper hand much of the time. Their defense is pretty darn good. If they stay injury-free, they can surprise some people. I picked them to be 9-7 but expected Dallas to win. 10-8?
There would have been plenty of chances to get a touchdown later in the game. But the Chiefs were playing their home opener following a win over a not-very-good Jaguars team, and Alex knew how vitally important it was to score a touchdown on the opening drive. It was important not only to the fans of a long-suffering franchise, but also to his teammates. So Alex made it happen through sheer force of will, carrying the team to the end zone on his back. Let's not forget: this is a guy who missed the better part of two seasons with injury, and here he is on third and long, doing a somersault and landing on his neck in order to convert a third down on the opening drive.
Alex Smith was sending a message: I'm here to play - and play HARD. And I'm here to lead this team to WINS.
We know Alex Smith is human. As a Chief, he could still prove to be one of the NFL's "elite" quarterbacks, or he could prove to be nothing more than a stopgap solution to a longstanding problem for this franchise.But on Sunday, Alex Smith earned my respect. Whatever his strengths or faults may prove to be, I am proud to have him as a Chief.
