Alex Smith

Given the past comments from Mahomes, he would certainly seem to be a valuable asset as QB coach, especially now with Trey Lance. A lot of people probably forget how effective Smith was running the ball. Eventually, he took that one bad hit but that was not the result of a bad decision to run. IMO, Smith would be the ideal QB coach here.

Set aside for a minute your lack of esteem for Alex Smith, and consider his background in Andy Reid's system and the regard Mahomes and others have expressed for his assistance in mentoring young QBs. Given all that, why would you not want him mentoring Lance?

because Trey would need to learn how to play the game, there's more to it than checking down or taking sacks

Mahomes has said many times how much Smith helped him. Do you think Mahomes is just "checking down and taking sacks?"

The Alex haters are something else. Can't even stand the idea of the guy coaching, because they're still butthurt that he was a #1 overall pick and didn't "live up to" that. Lol comedy.

Yeah, that Mahomes sure checks down and takes sacks and never pushes the ball down the field because Smith helped mentor him, all right.

I will make the same ask of you as SWH; set aside your lack of esteem and consider what Mahomes said about Smith's "invaluable" help in getting him ready to play.

This line of commentary is only about Smith as a potential coach, not what he did on the playing field a decade ago. That conversation has long since run its course.

do you want us to post Mahomes saying he didn't know how to read defenses until Smith was already gone a year? so what did mahomes really learn ?

Mahomes was just being nice

I don't care to engage in a battle of evidence. What was clear is Mahomes saying he would not have achieved what he did in his first year without Smith's help. It is certainly possible that Mahomes learned a good deal more as he continued to play.

That is all...

They will never let go. Not even as a coach or commentator. Lol.

if there isn't any evidence.. than how can you say he would be a great coach ? just blind fatih on some kind words?

We shall see if Smith get any offers, i doubt it. but would be nice to see

He meant evidence as to who said what. It's clear that Smith would be a great coach because he already has two examples of QB's that he mentored and helped have success. Two that play NOTHING like him. So the notion that his QB's would "checkdown and take sacks" is just another low blow at Smith.

What's sad is the Alex haters hid behind "we just don't like him as a quarterback, it's not personal." But now this same group is claiming Alex wouldn't be a good coach and dismissing players who praised him as "just being nice." So it's clear that the hate towards him is personal. Why this group still clings to these weird emotions is very strange.

very strange to say he would be a good coach, which is based on nothing

Because Alex Smith taught Mahomes how to be a professional and how to prepare. That's a one year mentorship (if that). No one has any idea if he could actually be a good coach or not. Not you, not I, not my buddy Furlow....not a single person.

By the time Alex would be brought in (if he is), we should hope Lance has already learned how to be a pro, how to prepare, etc. Id rather an actual QB coach come in to help Lance progress with mechanics, footwork, etc.

But I know, hate right?
