His football smarts are lacking in my estimation.

He does take a crap ton of sacks. He is not afraid to throw it down field. He just hasnt as i have stated, ever had the receiver the ability of Dwayne Bowe to throw to. he threw to Vernon Davis, and Delanie Walker, deep at will.

Feel Free to provide an example of this. I have never ever seen this happen, because usually the great qbs, have a great front office, and coaching staff surrounding them.

From 2-14, to 7-8 wins is not a failure. Thats a plus 5 win ratio. That is anything but a failure.

Alex Smith doesnt have to be better than he has been. He just has to keep doing what he was doing last season, and the chiefs will be successful.....

IM pretty sure that the eagles were trailing a whole lot last year. Something that in the past two years, alex smith hasnt been doing. And im sure that if the chiefs are winning games in the second half of games, they arent going to be throwing it all over, more like running charles all over people. Its not a stretch to say, that if charles stays healthy, hes going to easily have career highs.
It is also fair to say this in regards to alex smith. He is a great soldier. He will do what ever is asked of him. If andy asks him to throw 30 times a game, he will. i dont ever think alex is going to turn into aaron rodgers, but hes never going to be matt cassel......
