Still, if the last three games evidence a shift in coaching / offensive philosophy, Alex just may have moved into the top 10. If it goes back to the conservative mode, well............

Why then is Atlanta losing games, you might ask.
How about the defense allowing 28+ points per game (4th WORST) and 385 yards (7th worst) in the league? Maybe because they have THE LEAGUES WORST THIRD DOWN DEFENSE? Opponents convert 47% of their third downs on Atlanta. |

Atlantas defense is also 8th in penalties and is second to last in red zone defense.
To note: I love it how when Alex Smith was playing well below average football, but was winning games, the common response to his level of play was always 8-0 woohoo...but Matt Ryan gets dragged through the mud for win loss record even though he is on pace for a career year and the defense is one of the worst in all of football in nearly every relevant category. |

Especially given that his passing game is LITERALLY the only thing that team has. Their running game and defense are dumpster fires. When your defense is constantly giving up 30+ points, OF COURSE you are going to throw some picks. You are throwing the ball a lot trying to keep up. That's hard to do when the defense doesn't respect your running game or receivers. |

Smith is on pace to throw for 20 td's with 8 picks, I'll take that combined with our top 10 in rushing points per game. |
