Solid 'B' and improving.

notorious 09-29-2013 02:57 PM

B if we had a loss.

A- because he has been PHENOMENAL in the 4th quarter.


Just like the CP QB snobs said an elite QB needs to be.

Cannibal 09-29-2013 02:57 PM

B+ for me.

A few too many drive killing 3 and outs this year keeps him from getting an A. But admittedly, he's doing it without a solid running game.

Frazod 09-29-2013 02:57 PM

B. Gets an A for today, though.

Not sure if serious.

4-0.

We blew out Jacksonville so we didn't need any 4th quarter heroics.

Against Dallas, Philadelphia, and now NYG he has literally DESTROYED the opposition in the 4th quarter with monstrous, game closing drives for scores.

Didn't turn the football over for 3 games, and his 2 picks today weren't of the "bonehead QB play" variety. 1st one is on Bowe, and the second was an act of the Football Gods.

Not really sure what you want there, aside from padding stats dude.

this

Mr. Laz 09-29-2013 02:59 PM

B+ or A-

He's missed some throws, but he has used his head,legs and arm to made the best of a suspect Oline, limited running game and mediocre receivers.

well done

DaneMcCloud 09-29-2013 02:59 PM

A.

He's played smart, efficient football. He's protected the ball well and is beginning to find chemistry with his receivers, even though they dropped too many balls today.

The Chiefs are 4-0 with three blowout wins. I'm not sure anyone could realistically ask for more.

Sandy Vagina 09-29-2013 02:59 PM

He will get better, so I feel funny about giving him an A... but I gots to. The drops, new system for all, and OL block fails get added in, and the B production turns into an A from me.

Eleazar 09-29-2013 03:01 PM

You can't give Alex an A, because he could have been much better in the first three games.

However if we are 4-0 and our QB can still play much better than he has, we're in good shape with him.

Ragged Robin 09-29-2013 03:01 PM

4-0 and hasn't gotten in the way of the team. That's an A given the circumstance and expectations of the team going into the season. He's not playing like an MVP world beater but he's been exactly what we thought we were getting from San Francisco. His worst game so far he threw for 273 0td 0int and we still won convincingly.

He's been solid and stepping up every time we need him the most during games, can't really ask for more imo.

This.

Alex is good and improving
love to see the passes he made in the second half
just need to get the Olines shit together

This is where you are wrong. He has managed the games as he was brought in to do. He has not over played his part by doing more than what he has been asked to do. He has allowed his team to stay in the games until they can make adjustments to have the chance to win out in the end.

He is growing with the teams offense as they are to him, this offense is still a work in progress that will only get better.

He has earned an A!

The question was not is he the best QB?

jd1020 09-29-2013 03:02 PM

B-.

This team is better overall than I gave them credit for before the season. The defense has been a lot better than I thought they would.

This Chiefs are 4-0, but this was Alex's first game where I saw him not worry about making a mistake and just wing it.

If I were to give him anything higher I would be grading him on a curve. But I'm grading him compared to franchise QBs.
