B+ or A-
He's missed some throws, but he has used his head,legs and arm to made the best of a suspect Oline, limited running game and mediocre receivers. well done

A.
He's played smart, efficient football. He's protected the ball well and is beginning to find chemistry with his receivers, even though they dropped too many balls today. The Chiefs are 4-0 with three blowout wins. I'm not sure anyone could realistically ask for more. |

B-.
This team is better overall than I gave them credit for before the season. The defense has been a lot better than I thought they would. This Chiefs are 4-0, but this was Alex's first game where I saw him not worry about making a mistake and just wing it. If I were to give him anything higher I would be grading him on a curve. But I'm grading him compared to franchise QBs. |

Through the first 3 games you could see him battling between the devil and angel on his shoulders. Should I throw it? Pump, pump, pump. That DB is a little too close. Happy feet. Nope. Let's keep it safe and throw it 7 yards short of the sticks and hope for YAC. |

He will get better, so I feel funny about giving him an A... but I gots to. The drops, new system for all, and OL block fails get added in, and the B production turns into an A from me.

You can't give Alex an A, because he could have been much better in the first three games.
However if we are 4-0 and our QB can still play much better than he has, we're in good shape with him. |

4-0 and hasn't gotten in the way of the team. That's an A given the circumstance and expectations of the team going into the season. He's not playing like an MVP world beater but he's been exactly what we thought we were getting from San Francisco. His worst game so far he threw for 273 0td 0int and we still won convincingly.
He's been solid and stepping up every time we need him the most during games, can't really ask for more imo. |

To me, it's pretty remarkable that his stats are what they are - fairly good across the board - given that our offensive line has played pretty poorly.
We're getting lots of help from our defense, but not from the offensive line. |

The completion % is pretty low for Smith, but I think we all know why that is.

He's keeping the offense afloat when the running game is dormant.
That's a big upgrade for us. B
