The Alex Smith haters are overblowing his shortcomings in order to try to save face when they pushed the panic button after the Chiefs signed him. They are trying to save face for their strong stance that he sucks and is no better that Cassel.
Look, the offense has some serious protection issues on the O line. Does AS miss some guys? Yes. Does he check down alot? Yes. Guess what? Half the time he's running for his life, and often, our receivers don't get any separation. Put those two together, and you get either a check down, a poor throw, or a sack. AS didn't drop two probable TD's last week that were well thrown. The O line has been terrible, the receivers don't get open, and when they do, they often drop the ball. But AS is the reason the offense sucks?
Just once, us "true fans" would like one of you ****tards to admit that AS, game manager as he may be, has actually played a role in the team being 9-0. Thats all. If you aren't able to do that, then you don't know football.
