I was watching last night in the 1st half and he passed up some short passes to air it but he was still going for the short underneath stuff more often than not
Meh. In the case of last night, I don't think that matters. Br*dy has made an entire career, millions of dollars, married a supermodel, and called GOAT by "going for the short underneath stuff more often than not". If you can strike downfield with accuracy at the right time, like Smith did last night, that is not a sin

Smith really upped his game last night. He lit up that Pats D at times.

Pats O is shaky and D isn't good right now. Gotta see what adjustments they make next couple of games to determine if they will go back to SB. They probably will still win that division even with a 9-7.

theory tho: crabtree & maclin weren't real #1s, so how much of his lack of production is on that? :ld:

The problem is everybody wants QB's to be one type of QB. The fantasy football GOD type.

We don't do this with other positions.

As WR's people appreciate the Antonio Brown, Julie Jones, OBJ. DeSean Jackson, Anquon Boldin, don't matter the type of WR we appreciate the skills.

RBs same thing we don't shyt on a back if they don't fit the AP, Lynch mold. We appreciate the Jamal Charles, DeVonta Freeman, and all types of RBs.

But as a QB if you aint the Brees/Manning/Brady/Rodgers fantasy god type QB. you get shytted on.

All different QB's can win in this league, and you don't need to be throwing down the field constantly to win games.

The fact that it took Mahomes to make Alex pass downfield would make me want him gone even more. :yeshrug:

Dumb ass narrative, Smith has passed down the field plenty.

It's not like there is game tape of him refusing deep balls that are wide open.

The reality is he is a guy who focuses on limiting turnovers, those plays last night, dudes were open. He throws to more open players

Obviously not since the Chiefs are one of the more successful teams in the NFL over the past couple years but you need to threaten teams over the top consistently which Smith simply doesn't do enough.

I mean, the Chiefs themselves spent two first rounders and a third on Mahomes. If they thought Smith was getting them to the promised land, are they doing that?

They clearly are planning for the future.

Smith been around since 2005.

If Eric Fisher doesn't hold last year they may have beat Pittsburgh, and then faced NE who they just put the beats on.

Also, this is Smith's contract year i believe, so Mahomes on a 4 year rookie deal is more attractive than paying 34 year old Alex Smith a new deal next year

I really don't understand why people throw on that cape for Alex smith. If you have a pretty good team he's an alright qb that'll take you to the playoffs. Good luck going deep in the playoffs with him though :ld:

I'd even say in a group of better than over half of league. Like top 40 percent if he keeps playin like that.
Ryan
Rodgers
Brady
Wilson
Winston
Brees
Carr
Roethlisberger

:jbhmm:

Those are the only QBs I have over him clearly. There's another 5-6 that are on his same level that I wouldn't be mad at ranking over him, but he slick has a case for top 10 I would take today, depending on how good my defense is
