A microcosm of Winston’s career

I didn't take it that way, just every time someone talks about Alex Smith I feel obligated to talk about how great and unappreciated his 2017 season was and how he was playing the best football of his life when the leg was broken.

I feel the exact same way about that 2017 season. I remember saying that Hill did more to change that offense than Mahomes did and people were ready to jump on me but when you see what Alex Smith did with Kelce and a raw Tyreek Hill compared to previous seasons, it would make more sense. I always felt that he was unappreciated, not just as a player but the culture that the Chiefs have today is the culture that Reid and Allen built.

I'm also in the minority that believes that if Alex Smith got another year with the Chiefs + the green light, he would have been a front runner for MVP and they make a deep playoff run.
