Since the bye week, Smith is throwing deep on 20 percent of his attempts. He is 4-for-13 for 120 yards, with one touchdown. A 30 percent completion rate might not sound like much, but that's what you expect from all quarterbacks in the league on deep balls. If anyone is consistently completing more than 40 percent, you get suspicious.

There is a slight discrepancy in the PFR and PFF deep ball definition. But for our purposes, this is negligible. Because the point is that the Chiefs did not start dialing it up more, or throwing it more, just because Foles was in the game. The game-plan was: let's challenge deep and focus on Kelce. Both Smith and Foles did just that. And both did it at a rate-per-attempt that would be among the most aggressive units in the league, if PFF's numbers are any indication.

Against the Colts, Smith was 4-of-5 for 66 yards to Travis Kelce. He targeted Kelce on 26 percent of attempts.
Foles was 3-of-5 for 35 yards to Travis Kelce. He targeted Kelce on 23 percent of attempts.

Alex Smith >> Foles > Bray

Foles can definitely beat the Jags by at least 10 if he plays smart. If he's gambling on these deep balls come Sunday without having a well-rounded game we could be in for a very, very rough afternoon.

I know ****ing why dipshit didn't need an explanation from you. It was a random thought because if your not doing good you may as well heave it out there and that was hypothetical.

Your stupidity by default needs to always be put in check.

I haven't been this excited for a Chief game since our last Super Bowl appearance.

So NEVER take a chance and never give your receivers a chance to make a play......

Yup. In many cases, a deep int is as good as a punt.

More importantly, if you want to establish a running game, you need to loosen up the defense.

Alex has done that in spurts. But not nearly enough.

Out of curiosity... How many of these deep passes occurred in desperation mode against Pittsburgh and San Diego? I am guessing a very high %.
