the biggest problem this offense has had the last 3 seasons is the pre determined pass play calls. Where Alex only has 1 option. Its been a problem in all of our big losses. Better teams sniff those plays out. We take the ball out of Alex's hands too often on 3rd and short and redzone plays. We do a better job on 3rd down when we call traditional pass plays. Give alex multiple options to throw the ball to or let him use his legs if it breaks down.

That is what turned the season around last season getting away from those plays, but they started getting called more frequently as we approached the playoffs. And made the 1st playoff game closer than it should've been. we failed on like 3 3rd and shorts with those plays when the offense was otherwise playing very well.

2016 prediction

3300 yards
23 TDs
9 INTs

3 rushing TDs

Seems about right. Been his average the past few years. I'd love him to break that magical 30 td year. I just don't think it's in him.

He is what he is. I Don't understand why fans think he's suddenly going to change.

Embrace it instead of being outraged

Agreed[emoji106]

personally, i see the chiefs o-line being one of the best in the league this year. this will allow alex to throw more, and run less.

gonna say he tops 4000 yrds passing (all YAC )

Is this the mnchiefsfan from CP??? WTF is a REALmnchiefsfan?? He's got the always hilarious in this context CP term "watching tape" covered.

It has been a while since we've had a down and dirty Alex Smith thread. :clap:

I don't think I've ever seen him criticize a Chiefs player, or even "grade" them fairly. He once wrote at least 500 words about what an amazing RB Cyrus Gray was going to be.

Buh gawd he's a Lil Chiefy

We know autumn wind and knhomo have better takes than you do.

IMO, Yards Per Game doesn't mean much. A QB coming from behind a lot late in the game against prevent defenses will have a high YPG - and still lose, while a QB that is leading a lot will run the ball more and have fewer YPG - and still win.

These guys were in the top 10 in 2015 in YPG:

Matt Ryan
Joe Flacco
Eli Manning
Blake Bortles

How did they do in the playoffs?

I'm with you on more TDs though.

I thought this was going to be a complete breakdown of The Smiths.
