Jaworski rates Chiefs QB at No. 20 among NFL starters
Jaworski rates Chiefs QB at No. 20 among NFL starters
The Kansas City Star Former NFL quarterback-turned-broadcaster Ron Jaworski ranks new Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith No. 20 among the NFL's 32 starting quarterbacks. That's according to Jaworski's ratings on ESPN's MediaZone site, transcribed from his three-minute daily segments dubbed "Jaws' QB Countdown" on SportsCenter and NFL Live. Smith, of course, was acquired in a trade from San Francisco this offseason, and has yet to throw a pass in Kansas City (aside from OTAs, that is). Here are some excerpts from Jaworski's evaluation of Smith: “A year ago, Smith was coming off his best season in the NFL, having led the 49ers to the NFC Championship. This year, he’s the starting quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. It was a great move by (Chiefs coach) Andy Reid to acquire Smith. “The defining element of Smith’s play is efficiency. He executes the offense the way it’s designed, and he makes very few mistakes. Last season – for the second year in a row – he was exceptional on first down. In 2012 he led the NFL in first-down passing, with a quarterback rating of 119. Much of it came off play-action, or in the case of the 49ers, hard run-action out of base personnel. There was no better play-action quarterback last season than Smith. He had a quarterback rating of over 132. “Smith has been outstanding out of multiple tight end personnel over the last couple of seasons. No quarterback has thrown the ball more with three tight ends on the field. You don’t see that very often in today’s NFL. “This play was beautifully designed with all three tight ends to the same side. First, look at the impact of the run-action on the two linebackers and the safety. This was hard run-action. Then you see that Delanie Walker’s vertical route occupied the corner. That left Vernon Davis matched on a safety, a safety that initially reacted to run. He had no chance on Davis’ wheel route. “One area Smith improved in 2012 was in the pre-snap phase of the game. He was much better at the line of scrimmage checking and audibling. “It will be interesting to see what Andy Reid does in Kansas City. Don’t be surprised if he turns Smith loose a little bit and features an up-tempo offense with an emphasis on quick throws. Remember, Alex Smith played for Urban Meyer at Utah.” Other QB's that Jaworski has analyzed so far: No. 32 Matt Flynn No. 31 Jake Locker No. 30 Kevin Kolb No. 29 Chad Henne No. 28 Mark Sanchez No. 27 Christian Ponder No. 26 Brandon Weeden No. 25 Michael Vick No. 24 Ryan Tannehill No. 23 Carson Palmer No. 22 Sam Bradford No. 21 Josh Freeman |

Read enough so far to know that your words are untrue.
Better to simply ignore me and what I say, if you disagree. I only came here to read worthwhile discussion about KC,but sadly, there has only been a small % of that so far. Although I respond to the silly mudslinging, I was hoping CP had more to offer. I'll wait a while and see if CP improves as the season and other fans arrive. If it remains filled only with the same dozen myopic haters that do nothing but rip on their own team? I'll happily move on to another KC forum. |

When I hear that Andy Reid is this fantastic quarterback guru and then watched how Mike Vick turned out then I don't see that Andy Reid is this magnificent quarterback guru. JMO. Mike Vick should have done better under Andy Reid. I don't blame Andy Reid for Vicks turnovers, but I'm not giving him credit for being a quarterback guru.

No, there aren't. And you claiming that there are, shows how little you know, and disagrees, with a LOT of people, including Jaws, Steve Young, Steve Marriucci, and Kurt Warner that know a hell of a lot more than I, and apparently definitely you understand about the qb position.

I don't know how this is going to play out. I know this, that every qb he has had, has had the most success in their careers, (save Garcia), playing for Andy Reid. Again, this could totally blow up and Alex Smith was a mirage playing for Jim Harbaugh, and at the end of the season, they cut alex and move on. Lots up for debate.

I think having Marty Mohrningweg helped a ton too.

The "experts" also thought Scott Pioli was a great GM, and that the Cassel trade was a great deal for us.
You've pretty much painted yourself into the "This expert can be trusted, this one can't corner" with your comments. "Your expert" is the gospel, meanwhile, the ex-NFL QB who studies QB play unlike any other on TV claims your boy Smith is a below-average QB by ranking him 20th. But let's ignore that expert. You ****ing trolls are comical, I'll give you that. |

Sometimes I wonder if these two are actually new members, or if they are mults - because they're spewing the exact same bullshit about Alex Smith that was said about Cassel when he was traded here.
Damn near verbatim. Give him a chance. He's a hard worker. All the experts think this is great for us. Unless you can say, "he's an elite or near-elite QB", then I don't give a shit. Garbage out, garbage in. Rinse, repeat. |

If you want to quit on your team, then just walk away like a man. No point in sticking around just to cry and bleed from your anus like lil girls freshly sodomized. If you can't get on board, then your team doesn't need you and would rather toss you in the trash. |

Just for the record ass hat. I laughed my ass off at you suckers for hiring pioli, and for trading for CASSEL. Why? Because I watched almost every pats game that year because I had drafted tom brady number one overall the year he got hurt, and picked up cassel when he got hurt. I knew the only reason he succeeded, was because he was playing for the pats, with Randy Moss, with Welker. he was garbage. Alex Smith on the other hand, knows his own limitations, hell everyone in the league knows his limitations, and the reason Alex Smith was rated 20th, was because he spent the past half of the year benched, not playing, and no one knows, not even me, if alex can actually play, or if it was just being nursed along by harbaugh and Roman. That's why he was 20th.
