Chiefs Alexander Douglas Smith: 2016 - Page 34

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 09-17-2016, 10:44 AM

We wouldn't we want to roll out another Alex Smith thread?!?!? Listen, for the Clay haters, this will probably be the thread that gets him banned. He can't help himself, right? Let's go!!!

First off, as many of you know, I have been very critical of Alexander Douglas Smith. Wasn't happy with the trade, HATED the extension, and have burned him to the ground from the beginning. So ****ing sick of the retread QB's.

So, that said Alex Smith is my Daddy. I mean, I just have to own that at this point. Here's why. He's never had continuity in a system. That guy had a new offensive coordinator just about every year until Jim Harbaugh showed up. And he flashed a little bit. That said, it sure looks like San Fran traded their best QB to us in favor of some douche that's starting some thing all over the league, while riding the bench to a guy named Blaine Gabbert.

Alex is now in his 4th year of the same system and it's showing. He's getting better. Why is he my daddy now all of a sudden though? Because he proved that he's more than just a game manager. He made some ****ing incredible throws against the Chargers last week. The back shoulder Maclin throw, the Maclin throw where Jeremy was almost killed, The Spencer Ware throws. Twice he hit him downfield (like, way more than 8 yards!), and then finally the Kelce throws.

People can give Spencer Ware a lot of credit, he is deserving of it after the monster game he had. Make no mistake about it though, Alexander Douglas Smith personally put this team on his back and willed them to victory. 1 play at a time. 1 throw at a time. He's a leader, and it reflected in the locker room after that game. They trust Alex now. They trust that he has what it takes to will them to victory in any game.

Alex isn't just a game manager anymore. He's a game changer, and a leader. This team could go 6-10 this year and I'll say the same thing. He has the ability and he's proven it. Now let's see where they go with it. I'm officially a YUGE Alex fan. What do you think? I'll take your comments off air.

If Kelce runs the route correctly, then there was no way the defender would be able to get around Kelce to disrupt the play... the chains rattle, drive continues, etc. etc.

Everyone can belly ache that the route above was coming open and would have been a huge play, blah blah blah... it's 3rd and 2. Kelce reaches the line to gain and is open - there is no reason to go to the next read in the progression. It's not like he can check really quick to see if there is a better option that might possibly open up and then, if not, go back to Kelce. It's all about timing. Kelce was open beyond the line to gain... trigger pulled. It's that simple.

I used to get chewed all the time for cheating up field just like he did trying to get a jump on a big play. Tempting to do, but what was most important here was picking up the first down - he should have come straight down the line to gain. I guarantee to you that this is exactly what was discussed in film review.

One of the only good plays Alex made Sunday and it didn't count. He had happy feet but at least stood in the pocket.

He needs to man up and stay focused on progressions in the pocket instead of panicking. So erratic.

The 'happy feet" for alot of guys is a timing mechanism in the pocket. Manning did it as well.

It's taught not to be static in the pocket in order to keep your feet moving with your body as you read the field.

The ****? Dude, we can disagree on anything you want, but I am as big of a Chiefs fan as anyone on this board. I NEVER EVER want to see them lose. Not for draft position, not for anything. At all. I'm not superstitious so I'm just having some fun with the full name thing.
