While Alex isn't setting the world on fire, he does demonstrate the ability to go through a few more reads and because he really never forces the ball, Bowe's target numbers are down quite a bit.

Bowe is on pace to be right around 110 targets this season, which would be his lowest total in any full season of his career. In his best 3 years in KC his lowest target total was 133, then up to 142 and 157 targets in the other seasons.

He does?

Alex ****ing stared down the primary target on a number of plays that were swatted down.

Alex was never all that great and the $#it-monsters we have blocking for him have made him even worse and less accurate.

On top of that we have wide open WR's dropping passes.

All adds up to a $3it offense...

How quickly people forget when Cassel was running this offense.

You will literally never see me describe Axl as great, but with a good line in the right scheme he's a 70% passer, and that cannot be denied.

70%, that's the new benchmark for greatness, 60% is the baseline... so did the guy just hit a two year run of luck in frisco, or did he have a line that helped enable it?

No, he isn't great... but if you give the mfer some TIME back there, he'll knock out 70%.

That works for me, he isn't Brady or Brees and damn few are... he, and most other guys, need a supporting cast to hit that mark, but he can hit it.

Well yes, very similar, although he doesn't force the ball, which I why is think Bowe's target numbers are down quite a bit.

Honestly, I liked three straight runs in that situation. We were trying to make a comeback and reestablish some dominance in the process. With a 1st and goal from the 2 yard line, you should be able to score with three straight runs.

My biggest issue with that series was that we didn't go for it on 4th down. In my mind, that was absolutely four down territory.

Everything you just said here I feel the opposite.
