Classic GoChiefs hating here. That DB was half a ****ing football field away and not even thinking about a pick.

Wrong, by the time he was in Smith's field of vision, he was a mere 15 yards away and, as DJ said, Smith was being pushed back and would've been a very tough throw. You take the risk in the regular season, but in the preseason? No thanks.

Once he hits his back foot and has time to come forward, it could/shold have come out it that throw is to be made. I would like to see him make that throw, and if we're going to be as best as we can, he needs to hit it. I'd argue that Baldwin was also open underneath for a smallish gain. |

I don't get the whole preseason games are not when you want to see him making that throw thought process.
That's exactly when I want him to make that throw. Test his limits when it doesn't matter.

Agree. Chuck shit around just to test receivers, cover D players, or even to challenge yourself. It's only preseason.

The sad thing is it doesn't take Manning, Brady or Brees to complete that pass. That is a complete Phillip Rivers, Carson Palmer, Andy Dalton, or Sam Bradford. You know, the average/below average QBs. Perfect illustration, especially that gif from behind Alex toward the end zone. You can't get more open than that. This has me flashing back to the Seattle game with a wide open Randy Moss racing the entire weight of the end zone waving his hands wildly for Alex to throw to him, while Frank Gore is pointing at Randy and shouting to Alex to throw to him. Which he finally does -- for a Seattle interception. |

He showed he could be viable starter in the league with that game. Vernon completely dominated that last drive as well. It was one of the only times in his career I saw him cover for the defense. Usually it's the other way around. There's just like hella three and outs and field goals, and the defense has to not make any mistakes. This was a shootout against Drew Brees. Great game. He came back down to earth in the next game, but it was fun while it lasted. |

Somebody else made the Alexcuse that a DB is in the right corner. Yes, with the WR in the middle of the field wide open and half the field to work with. That is an EASY completion for most QBs. EASY. Alex often can't see or is unwilling to pull the trigger down field. I've seen this too many times, too many years to buy your Alexcuses. Don't mind me. I'll let you wait until mid-season when you've also seen it too many times and are pulling your hair out in frustration. You are gonna learn this from first hand experience and it won't take many games to see it. |

He's going to be good at the stuff he's good at and bad at the stuff he's bad at. I don't think pre-season is the only time you're going to see some of those throws. You guys will be debating ALL SEASON about this guy. |

That said, I'm in agreement with the overall notion but I have to admit that after last season (and actually, the past 8 seasons), it was nice to see competent QB play on the first drive. Regardless of how far the ball was in the air. |
