Just because we run a wco doesn't mean you can't throw it down field

Pocket collapsed before the receiver made his break and got inside of the defender. |

This guy didn't even watch that game. Alex Smith was game managering that shit all over the field. He made like one or two throws the whole night that were anything remotely special. Alex Smith is, was and will always be a game manager. |

Also, if what he does is so average and so easy, why don't more qbs do it? Dude just GOT PAID for doing what you claim any broke dick can do, why don't they all do it then? I would, take less risk, make the easy throws and cash my checks. Why don't they just all do that? There are more ways to play the position effectively than just the Brett Farve guide to quarterbacking. |
Andy Dalton's first 54 games: 12,735 yards, 86 touchdowns
Alex Smith's first 54 games: 8,397 yards, 51 touchdowns So less yards and less touchdowns and less playoff appearances but, yeah, if you need someone to handoff and checkdown and maybe get you in field goal range then Alex is your boy. Alex Smith: handing off like an MVP! |

But to label him as anything but a game manager is inaccurate. And the Chiefs will never win anything with him because of that. Good day, sir. |

And no pocket didn't collapse before the receiver was open. He was flushed out to his right after the fact. |
So ridiculous that this one missed play goes on and on. Smith didn't make many special plays that make your eyes pop open.. but he did have a near flawless game of spreading the ball around and dominating TOP. He did put together an excellent 2 minute drive.. from the 8 yard line... to win the game.
This isn't Madden.. where you (as QB) drop back and can see every perfect target route just as they come out of their break, and have the option to hit the any one of the targets with a push of a button. I can see some criticism, if AJJ was wide open or had a couple steps on the defender... he wasn't and didn't. I can see more criticism if this was a 4th down play on some final drive of the game...it wasn't. The GREAT Phyllis Rivers.. in his own house.. had many crap throws.. some of which he got bailed out on by great receiver catches... but many off target throws. ... but no. Let's focus all attention on one play where Smith elected not to force a deep, low percentage throw on great CB coverage vs a below average WR. ... and this comes after a huge road win.. in which Smith had a higher avr. and rating.. against a division opponent on a 5 game win streak. just wow, people... No one is anointing Smith as the "greatest evar" over this or any game... but being this petty as to grumble on and on over this one play? :facepalm: |

I certainly won't. The Chiefs winning a ****ing wild card means nothing. Absolutely nothing. |
