They don't understand the philosophy, and the way it was done. You and I saw it. We saw how when Alex Smith took over the second half of 09, and Jimmy Raye was actually able to use the Shot gun, and pass some, we saw glimpses of what Alex could be. Then what happened? They drafted Iupati, and Anthony Davis that offseason, and he shoved alex smith right back under center again, fired Jimmy Raye, and got himself canned. I love the idea that someone says that Alex Smith was a pass first qb at ANY time under any head coach until now. That is laughable to me.

It was so laughable that Gore later commented how fustrating it was to hear the various defenses calling out the exact play they were going to do before the ball was hiked. Hard to succeed when everyone knows where you're going. Singletary said something along the lines of "we're going to smash them in the mouth and they're going to know it is coming and not be able to stop it." He got the first part right.

"espn.go.com/nfl/player/splits/_/id/8416/year/2010/alex-smith"

145 attempts when behind
77 attempts when not

Considering the team's record that year...it should be pretty obvious that they were behind most of the time...

Yep, and it wasn't difficult. Gore up the gut, Gore up the gut, pass.

I am sure happy we have Harbaugh now, but boy, 2007 through 2010 really sucked. Personally, I blame the Chargers.

I'm not saying Reid is a bad coach, I'm saying that there is no way your QB is a "minimal part of the overall equation" with him.

He's not "minimal" to Reid of course. That said, he's far from being the whole damned show. Let me try this one more time:

If Alex will take care of the football and not go Full-Cassel, the Chiefs can and will physically outmatch you. Our running game and defense will absolutely piss-pound you.

Hence my original post. I mean FFS, there's Marty-tard, and there's Fox taking a knee.

Lol I hope he does well, I am a huge Chiefs fan but we all now that Smith can be terrible at times :/

Ah yes, we Chiefs fans clearly recognize that sinister pattern.

HUARD DROPS BACK ON THIRD AND THREE... OH NO, HE CRUMBLES TO THE GROUND UNDER PRESSURE!

and again, fans from other teams not knowing our history and citing we should thank our lucky stars for said player.

ColinBarton23 07-26-2013 01:37 AM

As much as I would to believe that Smith is the answer, I have a strange feeling that he might be a flop for the Chiefs... I'm hoping this won't be the case.

Oh Noes! Alex Smith is Matt Cassel

http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/splits...44/matt-cassel

2012:

134 attempts when behind
2 attempts when not (0-2 on those attempts as well ROFL)

Can you believe that? Matt Cassel did not complete one pass last year when the Chiefs had a lead. Not a single pass. Yeah, Alex Smith and Matt Cassel are the same QB :rolleyes:

The Chiefs attempted a grand total of 27 passes when they had a lead last year. Brady Quinn was responsible for 25 of those passes.

Ace Gunner 07-26-2013 09:16 AM

mat cassel was the absolute worst football player to start in the NFL for four years that I have ever seen. it isn't even close.

I'm pretty sure that is what dick haley saw when he told todd he did not believe they could win with that guy.

Believe or not, Alex really only had 1 terrible game in the last 2 years. Some underwhelming games, perhaps.. but only 1 terrible game. (being against the 2012 NYG, and that was the game immediately following an injury to his throwing hand index finger)

I'm confused. Which team had the defense that basically gave up because the team wasn't winning? That seems pretty soft to me.

You're not cherry picking the right stats....
