But that is fine. The yards per completion stuff doesn't really bother me. All I care about is execution really. If he is going to throw short, I want our receivers to execute. In the end, that is all that matters anyway.

And this system is ****ing awful so far. When you're throwing passes behind the LOS with 3 minutes left and a huge deficit; then you're just going through the motions out there.
Alex actually took some pretty good shots down field in this game. That back shoulder throw to Avery in the first was his best throw yet as a Chief. But overall; his lack of accuracy, our WR's inability to catch or separate, a porous OL, and a neutered offensive scheme won't beat the Broncos, Saints, or the Patriots.
