2007 Eli Manning threw for 23 TD passes. Alex Smith has never come close to that.
2007 Eli Manning was supported by the 17th ranked defense. Alex Smith needs the #1 defense to do anything, ever, in his career. 2007 Eli Manning also led an offense that was at least above average (12th) in third down conversions. Alex Smith is death on third down. Are we done here?

The sad thing about this is that Marcellus was one of my allies during the Cassel Jihad.
He has learned nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Hali's contract actually drops to 7 mill next year and less after that. I doubt he gets cut just because it's very team friendly.

Was it the 56% completion %, the 6.3 YPA, the 9 fumbles or the 73 QBR? |

Up to this point, Alex Smith's best years have come when he's been in a similar situation as Cassels 2010. He's never been in a pass first offense, thats been successful.
Apparently, Andy Reid believes he can be successful in one, which is good enough for me. |

I'm trying to clearly (as I can) illustrate that if you want to win in this league, you identify the best quarterback you can when you have a need (and arguably keep doing this even when you don't have a need) and you take him. During the process of selecting this player, you try to identify key weaknesses in their overall game so that if you do select him, you can focus your coaching on these points and try to eliminate them while also enhancing the strengths of the player using the other knowledge you've gained through this process to build an offense that puts your player in a position to succeed. Now, they have obvious identified Alex Smith as the guy they feel will be best for this team to win bug games with and I hope they're right. I truly do because I am dedicated to this team and it's been YEARS since I could say I actually liked watching Chiefs games. This move was Dorsey and Reid identifying Alex Smith as the guy thts better than anyone from college would have been and they may very well be right, but conventional wisdom and the way winning teams are build suggests they are wrong. Time will tell |

Yeah, Cassels 2010 season was better than any season of Alex Smiths. I should start calling him Alex Myth Just for some of you guys. |
