Yes, the Giant game was much closer to the norm regarding Smitty's inability to consistently make plays and score. If there is anything that exemplifies Smitty's tenure in KC, it is that.
The first five weeks of the season is the best Alex Smith has ever played. We were all hopeful that after 12 seasons he had finally taken that step. It was going to be a win-win for all of us. But it was only wishful thinking. He resorted back to being Smitty. Back to the norm. Unable to consistently make enough plays to even score, let alone win.
Of course, Smitty can make plays. Anybody who makes it to the NFL as a QB has shown the ability to make plays. But there is a big difference between possessing the ability to make plays and the really good QBs who consistently make plays. Smitty is the former, not the latter.
