If he keeps playing bad obviously it will be up to Reid to make the switch but I don't foresee that happening. Smitty is better than that and his numbers for the year prove that. QBs have bad games/stretches during the year. This is common.

His performance the last 5 weeks is much more representative of his last 5 years. This better play you speak of is definitely in the minority. That play works when your defense is top 10 in points and best in the league at forcing turnovers. What we are seeing is what this game management thing looks like without the defense doing those things.
Alex doesn't play great with a few bad stretches. Alex plays mediocre with a few small excellent stretches. You have that reversed. I am fine with Smith during those stretches. I have no delusions he can string together 3 to 4 of these games together consecutively in a playoff run.
