So what is the current excuse we are debating for Alex?
Is it the OLine excuse? WR? |

It has been the OL in the weeks before we played Denver. The vibe I have been getting from the Denver game is it was the WR. So count on this week against SD either the playcalling or the OL. Our offensive struggles can't be due to Alex Smith, it never is. |

The number of dropped passes has grown everyday since Sunday night. Listening to Petro and Teicher yesterday, you'd think balls were careening off receivers shoulder pads and clanking off facemasks the whole game.

Second half - really the third quarter - it seemed like the offense regressed. And it didn't get going again until the Broncos had a 17-point lead with 7 1/2 minutes left (garbage time). The drops hurt, obviously, but I think it's a stretch to say the Chiefs win without the drops. Alex Smith played better, but he still needs to improve a lot. And the biggest issue remains the throws he chooses NOT to make because of his extreme risk aversion (even when they are throws he CAN safely make/has the arm strength and accuracy to make).

He played far from a perfect game, that said the loss can't be put solely on AS. The dropped pass by Avery was big, I think that one play changes the game. That one play let a little doubt creep in and they can't let that happen. |

The Chiefs are #6 in the NFL in dropped passes. Guess who is #5.
http://stats.washingtonpost.com/fb/t...iving&rank=232 What player leads the Chiefs in drop passes? Jamaal Charles with 7. A 1/3 of the drops are coming from the running back position. Denver's amazing WR core - Decker has 7, Welker has 6. McCluster, Avery, Fasano have 3 drops. Bowe has 2 drops. Bowe's drop percentage is tied with Jason Whitten and Pierrce Garcon. http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/drops/2013/ |

To you, maybe. To those of us who don't have a mancrush on Captain Checkdown, he's about as boring and vanilla as it gets.
