I agree with you, that ANDY believes in Alex Smith. Im an Alex Smith lover, and Im not sure that he is the answer. And truthfully with Andy Reids mindset Im not even sure how andy came to the conclusion that Alex Smith was his answer. But, I do know this, if John Dorsey learned anything, you get rid of a player a year too early, rather than a year too late.
Proof of that. They cut a second round pick in training camp, Brian Brohm, they rejected Brett Favre, they just cut woodson even though they dont have his replacement,, and he was willing to restructure. If he takes that mind set, and sees that Alex Smith is indeed Alex Smith, then he has to pull rank and end the madness. Draft picks be damned. Every year that Alex Smith doesnt get the job done, is essentially two more years your team is going to be held back.
If he sucks this year, draft a qb next season, and move the hell on.
