Alex Smith wonders if he should take more chances

Posted by Darin Gantt on September 20, 2018, 6:06 AM EDT

Alex Smith has been very successful in the NFL by not taking too many chances.

At the same time, he knows he may need to take a few more to help spark the Washington passing game.

The Colts dared Smith to go downfield last week and he didn’t, throwing 46 passes and gaining just 292 yards (6.3 yards per attempt), and he knows that against the Packers that may not be sufficient.

“Yeah, you do look back at that and are like, maybe this one play in the first half, should I have held it a tick longer and taken a shot?” Smith said, via Kareem Copeland of the Washington Post. “Or could I have looked this off and gone here?

“That’s kind of the game you play with the what-ifs in a situation like that. It’s hard, though, when you have limited opportunities. You expect to have more opportunities and we didn’t have them. Then . . . the second half kind of got one-dimensional.”

Of course, the Washington pass-catchers didn’t help, with drops and a Jordan Reed fumble, and running back Chris Thompson led them with 14 targets and 13 catches.

“Anytime something doesn’t work or you’re out of rhythm, out of sync, the next day you’re kicking yourself,” Smith said. “Could we have done things differently? Yeah, maybe. Could have executed a lot better, too. Combination of all those things put together.

“It’s a fine line. You fight that battle, right? Should we stay patient with this? We want to stay patient with this. Then the next day maybe you are saying, maybe I should have gone a different direction quicker.”

He at least has some new options this week, as they signed former first-round picks Michael Floyd and Breshad Perriman to round out the receiving corps. Whether that means more chances downfield remains to be seen.

Such a craven liar. Our particular conflict over Alex had nothing to do with football.

You were on here spouting your nonsense conspiracy theory that Alex was a shit person as a human, . . . because you could tell in Alex's eyes that he only does charitable works to look cool and for the attention.

More evidence of what I hypothesized elsewhere, that many who characterize me as some huge Alex-only fan have other beef with me completely unrelated, and lie about my position on him as a player as an emotional outlet.

I appreciate everything Alex Smith did to help Mahomes learn the game.

Class Act

Having said that, I am very grateful that I don't have to watch him check it down as the QB for KC anymore

If Alex Smith actually had an offensive line and like 2 or 3 more elite level wide receivers, he’d easily be a top 5-8 QB.

It pisses me off that we ever had to cheer for this guy or rationalize his shit play (and I admittedly did that).

And before him Cassel and Thigpin and Croyle.

So glad we moved on...

I characterize you as one the smartest and funniest posters on CP. FWIW

As I remember Baby Lee mostly got in fights with posters he thought were overly harsh on Alex. I didn't often agree, but that's a far cry from "biggest AS ballwasher ever".

That's what happens here. You can see it just today in talking about the defense and Sutton.

Anything less than "Sutton sucks, fire Sutton" is defending him. You can't be neutral and objective anymore. You gotta pick a side and then be rude about it.

If I were a skins fan, I wouldn't be upset about PM. Drafting a QB isn't anything more than a lottery ticket.

I would be upset watching Cousins light it up in Minnesota and knowing that Smith cost almost as much.

God what a nightmare. For all his failures, Alex was a huge upgrade for us and cost less. I would be suicidal if I were a Redskins fan. (Even more so than usual.)

Alex seems like a great dude and I wish him success. He made us competitive again after the hideous Cassel/Pioli era.

That said, I'm still glad he's gone.
