What do you want?
And not that it matters much, because if you want something more than Smith, you aren't going to get it because Reid has already stated that he's wanted Smith as his QB for a while now and with Smith being 29, he's still got a minimum of five years in his "prime" stage as an NFL QB.
If you want to take a dump on this team and Smith because he's not hitting your expected fantasy numbers then I guess that's your option, but at the end of the day this team is 3-0 with him playing mistake free football.
The hypothetical world of "we'd be so kick ass if we had Elway in his prime" isn't going to happen. Not a single chance of it.

No one is taking a dump on this team because of fantasy numbers. No one is really taking a dump on this team.
What people ARE doing is expressing concerns about Alex Smith's ultimate upside, concerns that if he is JUST a game manager (even a good one), it is going to make it damn hard to do anything of note in postseason play.
What people are saying is that Andy Reid should NOT be tied to Alex Smith if he continues to play at this lukewarm level, that can work in the regular season but is questionable after. That Reid SHOULD be open to upgrading or attempting to upgrade at the position.
