Clays a dick.

But at least now you know that.

This is pretty much what he does.

It's the most fascinating experiment this year. Andy Reid loves to throw. A. Smiths pitch count needs to be managed. Can it meet in the middle successfully?

shrugs.......all I can say, is I tried.

Apparently, Andy Reid sees something I have never seen. If he tries to throw 60 percent of the time with Alex Smith I don't see that going well at all.

Agreed. Lets pray he's smarter than us. Gannon/Gruden part II

I'm really tired of all this speculation. Just a few more weeks until we see the real bullets fly against the Jaguars and we'll see if AS is worth the steep draft pick payout we gave to acquire him.

You talk as if Alex is an unknown commodity.

No one has really seen Alex throw a lot of passes when his team is not in desperation, catch-up mode. If Alex is throwing 30-35 times a game, KC isn't trailing by a ton, and the majority of passes are in the short and intermediate range? I don't think there will be some alarming issues. Not if the OL can pass block and every other pass isn't dropped.

Probably because a team lead by Alex is at their best when he's not trying to be Aaron Rodgers and instead be the most prolific QB at handing the ball off.

We've already seen issues, starting last week.

I don't think you can run a pass-first offense with Alex, because he isn't a guy who can make the most out of each pass play.

Maybe, maybe not... two preseason games.. one of which, he was close to perfect in taking what the D gave him.. are not enough for anyone thinking fairly to condemn or anoint as SB Champs. Pass pro, hot routes, and blitz pickup is usually the toughest and last aspect to get a solid grip on when dealing with a new system for players. Add the injuries to a rookie RT and an OL that needs to learn to better work together, and I think it's wrong to jump the gun on aggressive assessments.

I know it's fun for you to do so, as you are dying to be the "look at me! I iz so smart everybody!".. so I get why you do it, and I say go with that. For others not interested in such weak approval, a wait-n-see approach works.

And six years in SF.

We know what Alex is. Preseason so far indicates he isn't changing.

LOL.

Is this ****ing guy really trying to act like two preseason games are the only thing we have to judge Alex's entire career on?

****.

When you make an investment in a mediocre at best player for so long you have to hold out hope that they can become somebody they aren't to prove everybody wrong. I bet he still see's Alex as a #1 overall pick. Even after 8 years in the league and not being even half the QB of Rodgers.

Keep on holdin on.

^ Andy Reid disagrees with you both. This is already a tired and recycled debate. We'll see what happens when the games count.
