It always feels like Alex Smith is about 3 or 4 plays away from being truly great.

I don't want to get condescending here, but I do not and never have bought the 'interchangeable fatty' theory of chiefsplanet. KC's OL is physically outmatched and they get their asses routinely kicked in the trenches. You're entitled to your opinion, but I think that has an impact on offensive performance. |

And what else would you expect from a veteran whose career is defined by how often he's been benched.

Did anyone notice how effective 3 man rushes were against Smith? I think the Steelers had this in the gameplan.
They would rush 3 and KC's WR's wouldn't be open enough for Alex because they have 8 guys in zone and Alex doesn't trust his arm. He won't stand in the pocket and wait for things to develop, instead tried to rush, and got sacked/tackled for a short gain. They reacted so fast to him pulling it down, and the 3 man rush was rarely actually pressuring him, that I think they expected him to do that. |

There are many reasons we lost this game and others.
There is NOT ONE thing you can point to! There are way too many reasons why we lost. Things that need to be fixed! At the same time, several times today AS had an open receiver and never connected by throwing to the wrong one. I just don't think AS is able to read the D quick enough to hit the open guy, but rather wait for the play to develop and try to hit a guy once he is open. He just doesn't see the play / receiver getting open before or during the development of that play. Too often, it's Capt. Checkdown when replays clearly shows a wide open man available to him. But, AS is not the problem with this team, way too many issues to fix! |

Damn, at age 30 I was still athletic enough to do what Alex Smith does. Wait in the pocket to let a play develop, get sacked or take off running. But again, he is not the problem, just part of the many reasons we suck! |

The biggest problem on this team isn't any single player, isn't that it is squishy soft.
I watched as the steeler Oline practically stomped out one of our DLine 4-on-1. Nobody came to help. I watched at the offensive players get pushed around. QB is a pussy Mauga is a gigantic pussy Oline is soft as shit Sean Smith actually tackled someone today, i was shocked. as long as we can be pushed around and are more concern with getting hurt than making the play, we will be weak. Team takes after the HC ...... soft
