Chiefs Alexander Douglas Smith: 2016 - Page 58

**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.

Smith has 4 defenses coming up that are beatable. The Raiders, Saints, Colts and Jags can all be beat on defense.

Depends on how true Andy is to his word in regards to how much of a fan he is of Foles. If they wait until the season is lost, it could be perceived as a move that was made because we have nothing to lose, so why not? However, if he made the move as early as after a Raiders loss (and presumed frustrating Alex performance), then I would guess that it would be indicative of Andy legitimately being a fan of Foles and having trust in him to potentially salvage our season.

Keep in mind that next season if we cut Alex it will save us 10 million on the cap, but if we use our option on Foles it will cost 10 million against the cap. No way that's a coincidence.

**** that guy. The still frame pics and gifs don't lie. Stop basking in the "glory" of us beating a Texans team that clearly had no business being in the playoffs last year. I loved the win at the time (still do) and it was ridiculously overdue that we win a playoff game, but let's not make it out to be some career defining achievement for either Alex or this franchise.

Interesting stat from 810 this AM..Alex is on pace to throw the 4th most passes in a season in NFL history.

Maybe this is Reid forcing Alex's hand. 4th year....you should be able to work with this gameplan.

Although who the **** knows anymore at this point. All I know is that this offense should be light years ahead of where they are now.

The Houston loss was as much Andy's fault as anyone's. West/Ware had a combined 118 rushing yards on only 16 carries.

Inexcusable to abandon the run.

I'd just like to see the clear evidence of Alex throwing a key block on Davis' KO return or the amount of pressure he was applying to Hoyer to make him throw all of those picks.

CoMoChief · 10-07-2016, 10:24 AM

Arrowhead pride broke it down that Alex smith only had 1 or 2 passes that went + 20yrds.

35 passes inside 15 yrds......35?!?!

He also hasn't been running as much, which plummets his value significantly....that's probably his best quality. If he's not running he's a below average game managing qb.

Going back to April, does anyone believe the report that we wanted Lynch or do you think it was just a rumor floated by the Chiefs?

I don't believe the report that we were baiting the Broncos to trade up. I think we wanted him but didn't have the picks to go get him.

Rumor to get a partner to trade out of the 1st round.

**notorious** · 10-07-2016, 10:51 AM

If the Chiefs wanted him, they could have made it happen.

If they wanted him, yet let Denver sneak in front of them because they didn't want to use picks, they are idiots.

Bottom line: If you want a guy, you make it happen.

Yet he might struggle to get to 4,000 yards.
