oh I can see it now. "Alex didn't throw behind him, Bowe wasn't in position"

There will likely be "excuses" flying from both sides. Whatever twists to one's agenda will be made by many. There is never any getting around that.

Me? I'll try and keep it as real as possible. I spend my weeks watching the games over and over, whereas some people just watch once live and then think they know what really happens each play. Ultimately, there will be some that don't care about the truth. But for me, if Alex screws up? I'll have zero trouble in calling him on it... because intellectual dishonesty won't help anything.

On the 49ers forum last year, alex smith threw a back shoulder fade in the preseason to brett swain. It was a touchdown. There was a 40 page discussion about how shitty of a throw it was, even though it was a touchdown. If tom brady, or aaron Rodgers makes that throw. No one gives a shit. it was a touchdown WOW, WHAT A QB. Every single thing alex smith does, will be dissected to the 10000th degree. Its what people who are miserable do.

He knows this offense well. The team drafted and signed FA's to fit his style, beefed up the offensive line to protect him, and he's got a top 5 HB to take pressure off of him.

At his best he's a C+ to B- QB and I fully expect those low expectations to be met in year one. There's no real excuse for not meeting them...

I agree with this. Alice should have just as many if not more weapons in KC...

So he falls apart post snap?

This is starting to add up

Well, if its a 5 step drop, and he can fire it where the d told him he thought he should. No, that's how you get 70 percent completion percentage. If the play doesn't go to script, like against the seahawks, and he has more time than he anticipated, he get jittery, and has frank gore pointing at a wide open randy moss, and by the time alex sees it, so has the defense, and he threw a pick.

But, if it goes as drawn up to the x and o. Golden.

He needs to learn to throw the ****ing ball away. He holds the ball too long trying to make something happen.

Throw it away. Let your pro bowl punter kick it and your multiple pro bowlers on defense get it back for you...

I know, I know I know. I have spent many a sunday after noon screaming for him to get rid of it, or to tuck it and run, and slide. Im with you bro. I really am.

We get the best QB we have had since Green and you spend every waking minute bashing him. He has NOT even thrown a pass for us??

As far as a horrible trade- how do you know that? Usually it takes years to find out if a trade pans out or not?

We don't have years with a 30-something game manager. It's a waste of future time and resources.

I'm not saying that prevents him from having a winning season. Trent Green never fully rid himself of that either.

I think it would be smart for Andy to continue to play to Alex's strengths and work on his negatives. For one he's an excellent play action passer. He's excellent at selling the fake and excellent at completing passes out of it.

If we don't see a LOT of play action with a threat like Charles I'll be livid...

Yes there are.

Woo, excited.

I'm not "butthurt" but I am sick of the "two" of you blowing smoke regarding Alex Smith.

Wicked ice burn.

You don't seem to understand that I don't think Alex Smith is terrible. Just that he is extremely mediocre once the ball is actually snapped, and that the Chiefs gave up entirely too much to acquire that bundle of mediocrity.

This is why his performance doesn't match his preparation. Guys like the one you describe don't win playoff games.
