Take away a couple of laugher/blowouts against craptastic teams in each year, and the PPG dip to less than 22. A QB who is putting up mediocre offensive output yet still winning at that ratio is riding his defense. And yes, his QB rating is shiny and so are his YPA. It's still impressive, but less so when you apply the context of who Alex Smith really is as a QB. Minimal pass attempts, taking no chances, scrambling early or checking down early instead of hanging in the pocket and throwing heavily off of play-action does wonders for efficiency and YPA. He's better than Cassel and better than anything the Chiefs have had since Trent Green. But he's still a mediocre starting NFL QB.
