Some of it also comes from the fact that there are other really good players and smart football minds getting paid to beat you in a zero-sum environment. Winning in the playoffs, let alone winning the SB, is really damn hard and sometimes failing to do so doesn't mean much more than the other guys simply played better on that particular day Which again gets me back to my original point - there are things far FAR more important to determining a player's value and long-term worth to an organization than his playoff record.

Whether that is true in KC, or was even true in SF... who can really say? You would literally have to break down each play while knowing the exact D-scheme and O-audibles to really know. So again... it's whatever.. we wasted enough time on it. My comment was that it was well known (or often said) that Smith has excellent pre-snap diagnosis. I suspect this is true... and that it helps at times when JC rips off a big one after it looks like Smith changes the play. That's all.

I didn't pay much attention to Cassell... nor could I have known without question what he was changing the play to.

Alex Smith makes Charles better. But you can't back it up or show stats to solidify your argument. Got it. |

The occasionally intriguing thing about this is... as it was then... at some point, it stops even being about Alex Smith at all. It becomes poster vs poster.. and animosities of new and old exchanges.

It's just a shame that it's not good enough. Anything less than undying man-love is "hater" talk. |
