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.

If Reid can get Foles to play the way he did in 2013 He should absolutely be the starter and this team is a SB favorite.

Having a b/u QB that can go .500 in this league is a rarity.

We have one with the potential to start and play well enough to win every game we should win...

( if a guy like Joe Montana can lose his job to some hotshot younger QB, all bets are off )

Just keep winning, Chiefs.. and hope you don't fall apart for whatever decision is someday made.

Joe lost his job to a young HOF QB.

Smith lost his job to a SJW that can't consistently deliver the ball on target.
