He passed.
You live in MInnesota right?

I didn't watch much of them this year, but when I did, Bridgewater just seemed meh to me.

What am I missing with him?

That's how Alex can be fixed.
I lol'd

Everyone crying for WR better start looking for TEminstead if Alex is QB

Why does it have to be a TE, or a WR?

Te should be improved next year by Kelce taking the next step (we hope) and maybe adding a more athletic one and subtracting Fasano.

It can and should be both and all of the above.

If DGB's off field stuff checks out (I'm skeptical it will enough for them) and he's there at 18 he would be in the discussion probably.

It's just really early for draft talk.

Hypothetically, if Desean Jackson gets cut which is a rumor I read somewhere, would you target him here?
Absolutely.

The only 2 I'd even think of perusing are Desean (I doubt he gets cut though...big production for a somewhat reasonable contract) or Jeremy Maclin.

Familiarity with the system offers a huge premium to us.

But, hopefully we do both and see what happens.
I agree...but as I said I hope they get a legit plan b in place

Just in case Alex doesn't earn his money.

We need to run those 5 TE sets for Alex

Trendsetting

This fooled me, too.

A rational analysis of that game though breaks down like this though:

1. Jamaal Charles ripped off an incredible TD run.

2. Alex Smith finally put together one TD drive after farting around for the entire game doing nothing.

It was a nice tease by Alex, though. He never did anything like that again the rest of the year and that is why we fell flat on our faces.

O.city 01-17-2015 12:03 AM
Rational, heh.

Who said it needed to be either or?

I just don't think it would be smart to go spending a bunch of free agency dollars on receivers with so many big contracts coming up like Poe, Houston and others.

Uhhhh... I believe Alex played fairly well against a very tough Seahawks D.

C'mon man.

The guy deserves credit for his success as well as his failures.

I'm thinking about the draft too. Not just free agency.

Preferably for me it would be, OL in free agency, maybe a TE if Davis gets cut, Maybe a WR if price fits.

Then go BPA all the way down.

108 passing yards and zero td passes is playing fairly well?

We ran the ball down seattles throat.

Close.
This.
Mfer.
Down mods, because this sentence sums up up his entire tenure here, if Madden had a "Low Confidence" measurement, Smitty would be the guy you trade for Chad Henne.

Not turning it over is a skill, though and turnovers are usually a good predictor of W vs L's.


But when the not turning it over, comes at the expense of missing scoring chances, it starts to weigh the other way.
