You are Clay, dude. You're spamming threads with your weird little vendettas and arguments.

Every time you call for a ban of Clay, you're advocating that you yourself also be banned.

Coming from the maestro of failed ban threads.

You're. Hurting. Yourself.

Cassel would've quit on that game in the 3rd quarter and spent the rest of it playing exactly like Smith did; generally feckless. He'd have never had the juevos to step up late like Smith did to get them back.

What? You think that a team up by a single possession with 3 minutes on the clock was playing prevent? The Broncos were hardly sitting in a shell there. Now I will concede that their penalties helped the offense significantly but when the Broncos had an 8 point lead and Smith had 3 minutes plus the 2-minute warning to work with, they most assuredly weren't playing prevent. Nor were they playing prevent when he led the FG drive to tie it or when he made two critical throws to move them into FG range.

Smith spent 90% of that game playing like shit, but unlike his predecessor, he still found the sack to come back late and win it. And just writing off his play at the end as a product of a prevent is just absurd. He made some very difficult throws to keep the Chiefs alive down the stretch and deserves as much credit for those as he does criticism for the throws he didn't make earlier.

I mean shit, he just engineered a comeback on the road against a very good football team. He gets some credit for that.

Alex played like a franchise QB at the end of the game. The strike to Kelce, the 4th and 10 conversion, the TD that tied the game, the 2 point conversion and the drive to get the winning FG.

It's so frustrating that we don't see that Alex very often.

And that's why it's hard to give him credit. Yeah I'm probably way too hard on him...but it's hard as **** to give him credit when he plays like complete ass for 3 quarters of every game.

Maybe less of a prevent and more of a "defense being tired as shit". You could see it with our defense as well.

We've always said we want s guy that makes plays when he has too, don't have to be a gunslinger etc.

Well....

Just think about how much he get's paid and you feel perfectly fine about being hard on him.

I know I've never said that. He'll blow it against Raiders.

You'd rather Alex throws for 300+ yds and 3+ TDs and we lose than he has bad stats and we win...

Maybe you guys don't realize the object of the game is to win not get a lot of FF pts.

There it is again. LMAO

Quick, give me some winning powerball numbers

O.city 11-28-2016 12:21 PM

You know what though, he may blow it against the Raiders. He may not. I don't think he'll melt down or anything and go 4 ints off into the night, but he may not play well.

But man, he nutted up and won them a game last night they should have lost. Maybe if he didn't play like ass for 3 quarters it wouldn't have mattered, but he did what he did. It's ok to give a guy credit.

No question. Because even a franchise QB doesn't pull off that drive more than half the time. Putting yourself in a 'do or die' situation where you have to score and get the conversion is a losing proposition far more often than it isn't.

He has to stop doing that and nobody's arguing it. But damn, he looked pretty good when he had to. That throw to Hill was 10 times harder than it looked. Across his body under pressure before the WR made his break. That was a nails throw by any measure and about as hard a play as you'll see a QB make. With the game (and any shot at the division) on the line, he made a baller-ass throw. Gotta tip your cap there.

Well yeah, but it's not as though our offense wasn't on fumes as well. Altitude's a bitch and those guy (Smith included) had been taking shots all night. Smith's willingness to stay in there and not check out on that game is commendable. He took a lot of hits and I'm pretty sure he wanted that game to be over just as much as any of the defenders he was facing. He's demonstrated uncanny resolve several times and I really think the road Buffalo game in 2014 was the best example of it. That's when I really noticed that the guy simply doesn't quit on games even when he sure appears to have every reason to do so.

For everything Smith isn't, he's a tough SOB and I'll always respect that about him.

Yeah, I'd just like to see him in that spot a little less often by virtue of making more plays in the first 3 quarters. Like I said - even the all timers can't count on completing that drive more than a fraction of the time.
