That doesn't mean his performance was acceptable or good enough. And if you want to argue that it is, what percentage of total Alex games would you guess gave a clear indication that he had a GREAT game? Now what percentage of games do you come back to CP to recap and people can't quite seem to decide if Alex was good or bad?

When you're so often riding that gray area as a QB, the situation becomes like the boy who cried wolf. He puts up Pittsburgh games ****ING CONSTANTLY. Chiefs lost? "Well if receiver X would do his job and catch the ball..." Chiefs win? "Ever think that Alex chose to play to the team strengths and allow our ST and D to keep doing what they were doing?" And in those wins, how many of them ever include more than 1 or 2 memorable and important plays that Alex made?

Maybe it's juuuust possible that game managers just don't win those Pittsburgh games. Maybe it's possible the QB can not look like an ass on the field and still just not be good enough.

If we're so dependent on the injury depleted defense to make all the clutch end of game plays (which Alex makes them do all the time in the regular season) then maybe we should be looking to replace the game manager QB who makes the team so dependent on that side of the ball to win games

Perfect.
