To me, it's pretty remarkable that his stats are what they are - fairly good across the board - given that our offensive line has played pretty poorly.

We're getting lots of help from our defense, but not from the offensive line.

He's keeping the offense afloat when the running game is dormant.

That's a big upgrade for us.

The completion % is pretty low for Smith, but I think we all know why that is.

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.

this is the first game where the Oline gave him any kind of consistent protection

He's been running for his life most of the time

W/e.

Through the first 3 games you could see him battling between the devil and angel on his shoulders.

Should I throw it? Pump, pump, pump. That DB is a little too close. Happy feet. Nope. Let's keep it safe and throw it 7 yards short of the sticks and hope for YAC.

Comparing him to other legit QB's in this league B-. Comparing him to what we've been used to since Green left, A+.

I gave him a B. Today was great though, despite the INTs. I loved that he at least threw some shots down the field.

One thing that worries me is his running. I love that he's picking up easy yards that the opposing D gives him, but he never slides and he always jumps in head first. I appreciate the fire and effort, but he also needs to realize that this team is absolutely screwed if he gets his head knocked off and Chase has to come in.

He had no running game and the OL has been getting overrun at times, I give him a B+ thus far, he's been solid, smart, has made plays when they were there, dealt with a lot of dropped passes today and still got shit done. Chiefs looking good, with this defense and a controlled offense, they can ride this thing all the way to the playoffs. Broncos will be a huge test.

B to B-. Today he showed the balls to make some gutsy throws. If he can continue to do this a solid A would be in store.

Bowser 09-29-2013 03:14 PM

B+/A-

He's done a fine job and given us stability at the position. He's done exactly what has been asked of him.

Gravedigger 09-29-2013 03:16 PM

Hey Todd Haley, we don't do this quarter shit anymore. B for Smith.

mnchiefsguy 09-29-2013 03:16 PM

B/B+...given the F- that was last year at the qb position, Smith has been quite the improvement so far.
