Watched every snap of every game. It's a joke that they were "pass heavy." Not even in the top half of the league in attempts or yards.

And while attempts did go up, it was only because Smith lost a step and knew his scrambles were going to be less and less effective, so he threw more. And it hurt the offense, which scored the fewest points per game of the Reid era.

Go look up Smith's abysmal third down completion percentage and rating. His legs will probably be almost completely gone this season and if he can't run and can't convert third downs and cant throw touchdown passes he's pretty much done. Which everyone here already knows. Including Andy Reid and John Dorsey.

Are you even aware that passing attempts went up 10% from 2015? Are you numerically challenged or something?

I would go as far as to say that if Alex doesn't change up his game and take more chances this season, we will only win 8 or 9 games. I really believe that.

If he does change his approach and give his playmakers more opportunities to make plays downfield, I would say they win 10 or 11 and exit in the divisional round.

Alex Smith says he still has a few years left, Jeff Saturday said Smith still has a lot of life left. Tom Brady, Manning, Favre will have played into their 40's. Most 10+year veteran QBs peak somewhere in their early 30's.

But somehow a 33 year old Smith who has improved year after year in KC is old and past his prime?

The idiocy is strong on CP.

Correction, Smith is the 3rd winningest QB in the NFL since joining the Chiefs. Only to Wilson and Brady.

The over under is 9.....

So obviously aside from 9 wins.....8 or 10 are equally probable...and more probable than the others.


9 wins (most probable)
8 or 10 (tied for #2 & #3 most probable outcomes)
7 or 11...( tied for 4th and 5th most probably outcome)

Etc..

This isn't rocket science here...

Yes, but only because he ran less. Smith passed more, ran less and the Chiefs scored less.

And a team that has historically stopped Smith from running, the Steelers, completely shut down the offense for a huge chunk of the po game.

Smith is mostly useless if you can't use his legs.

You're comparing Smith to Hall of Famers????

So you lack skills in reading comprehension. Good to know.

Now Smith belongs in the same conversation as Brady, Manning, and Favre? Got it..... LMAO

Well, my "idiocy" is in his health.. full bank account, and counting on him being smart enough to get out while he can still truly be there for his family.

Hopefully we win double-digit games again and Alex has a good season so we can get a 2nd rd draft pick from a team like the Jets, Cardinals or Jags.

Bruce Arians wanted Alex and Cardinals are in the NFC, so I think that with Carson Palmer likely retiring, trading Alex for a 2nd rd pick would help everyone.

If we got a 2nd for Alex I'd be ecstatic. It would really help us forget about not having a 1st rd pick next Spring.

I don't think he's past his prime at all. He's just not GOOD enough
