AFC West Position Rankings: Quarterbacks | Mile High Report
The Kansas City Chiefs have so much confidence in Smith that they went out and drafted a quarterback in the first round of the 2017 draft. Smith could be the definition of milk toast. He had the highest QBR in the AFC West in 2016. He was safe.
I love a million things about this play, but I’ll limit it to the point I want to make before we get started: there’s no stat for destroying your blocker and forcing the runner to completely abandon the running lanes he’s supposed to look for, reducing the play’s chance of success by about 90 percent (no doubt because that’s something of a mouthful). There’s also no stat for displaying physical dominance of another grown man that’s normally reserved for play time with dads and children. (I swear, I WILL make this a recognized stat somehow).

The risk of drafting Patrick Mahomes raised many eyebrows around the league -- almost certainly none more than those of the incumbent starter. That's why Smith will put together his best all-around campaign in Chiefs red. Will it be enough to get the team to the next step, the AFC Championship? No answer in this blurb, folks.

"We just banded together and tried to get him everything he needed,'' James said. "Because his diet had changed and his taste buds had changed.

When I used to write for that other website you may have heard of, I cited how quarterbacks threw at Peters 137 times as a rookie in 2015, followed up by just 87 in 2016.
