The things some say to defend this teams shitty quarterbacks...
Bowe has shown DOMINANT ability.
Avery and McCluster have shown solid ability. League average or so.
Jamaal Charles has shown DOMINANT ability.
Alex Smiths ability to protect the ball is nice, but he also leaves a lot of plays unfinished because he doesn't have the mentality to finish them.
Avery is open a lot on deep routes, I don't want to hear otherwise. I saw it with my own eyes. Bowe had 2 steps on the defender on a deep cross and Alex threw the 6 yard pass on the same side of the field to DMC (iirc it was DMC). Alex has overthrown a "NFL open" receiver a lot, too.
Those are the "take what the defense gives you" passes that open up when a defense overcompensates to take away the short game.
If Alex can't capitalize, you get 31 yards in the second half at home against Cleveland.
