Alex got the same type of receiver play in SF that he got from KC in last Sunday's game. Add in the remarkably potato coaching prior to Harbaugh... and the true reasons for such a stat become more clear. Even with Harbaugh, our offense was just beginning to evolve. And no.. it also involves some blame for the QB... but when your receivers are not built to come from behind... when your gameplans are never designed around quick-score shoot-outs... when you never really had a good pass pro OL.... yeah... great recipe for coming back in high score games.

That is not going to be enough to beat Peyton. Even at home. The defense is what it is. We won games this year when Alex played like total dog shit. Now the shoe is on the other foot, why can't he take advantage of two red zone opportunities? Same as it ever was, though.

But the rush LB is not a high dollar/high slot upgrade. You find a guy that fits what you do and draft the replacement. Or maybe pick up a guy who hasn't been schemed into that role yet but is a potential fit. It's a LUXURY upgrade. The CB, looks like more of a need, though it appeared KC was set when the pass rush was dominating early in the year. The offense has a lot more problems. QB, WR, OL, TE. It's not Alex Smith's fault when the defense kicks rocks, not directly. Only thing you could even remotely say is that if they'd kept the second round pick and used it on a rush OLB or CB there, the defense would be better. I wouldn't argue that. Ultimately, as far as crying for a QB upgrade before defensive upgrades... QB is the single most important position and also the hardest to find a solution at. Therefore, more resources must be invested in finding an upgrade. The Chiefs other upgrade needs are much easier to locate.

IF only we had Geno.. That's right you jumped off that bandwagon. Alex was the best QB on the market this off season and the Chiefs got there man. It's that simple.

The 2-30-1 stat adds some context and predictors to what Alex Smith-piloted offenses do when the opposing team puts up even a slightly above-average offensive performance. Even if you limit it to just the past 3 years - when Alex Smith has had good teams around him - he's merely 2-6-1 in those games, with the two wins coming against teams with bad defenses (2011 Rams and 2011 Saints).
