I remember when we used to crumple up numbers and let our dog pick the lotto too.

This. With the exception of Hoyer most of the QB's ahead of Alex have had a more significant impact on whether or not their team wins or loses a football game.

I don't know, you can see Smith's impact by looking at last year's performance. His scrambling on 3rd down has been a major factor in us being 4-0. He's not incredible, but he's been between solid to good the last few weeks.

The first 19 are the best quarterbacks, I wouldn't rank them in that order that he has but he has that much right.

Not so sure about the precise order of this QB chunk... but your overall list is SO MUCH BETTER than that moron in the OP.

Yup our 3rd down conversions wouldn't look half as good as they did without Smith's feet.

It's also his incompetence that keeps other teams in games until the very end. Eagles and Dallas game being a prime example of what I'm talking about.

Yup. The Chiefs offense isn't asking much out of the QB position. How they're using Alex tells you a lot about his true abilities. Make short 7yd throws, don't turn it over, play safe, get Charles the ball. Alex Smith is doing that pretty well. But that doesn't necessarily make him a top 10 QB. It just means that the Chiefs know very well his strengths and limitations, and have done a good job of catering the offense to that. How they're handling Alex is what's producing the wins. Alex isn't really lighting it up with stats or carrying the offense with his abilities. He's just executing his minimal role well.

It doesn't matter that the aggression has cost the Giants their season or that Flacco pretty much lost lost the game for the Ravens against an inferior football team last week. Aggression equals awesome.
