look at that ****ing douchebag.

we better not give him 60 mil or I'll put a jihad on him.

Reid had Foles throw 38 times a game for 243 per game, yet he will have Alex Smith on a Cassel-like leash? Evidently, that's consensus view.

LMAO Don't be a hater.

There is no doubt in my mind that Smith will be throwing the ball more often than he did in SF. There is also no doubt in my mind that he will not have near the "success" he had in SF doing so.

He does take a crap ton of sacks. He is not afraid to throw it down field. He just hasnt as i have stated, ever had the receiver the ability of Dwayne Bowe to throw to. he threw to Vernon Davis, and Delanie Walker, deep at will.
Feel Free to provide an example of this. I have never ever seen this happen, because usually the great qbs, have a great front office, and coaching staff surrounding them.
From 2-14, to 7-8 wins is not a failure. Thats a plus 5 win ratio. That is anything but a failure.
Alex Smith doesnt have to be better than he has been. He just has to keep doing what he was doing last season, and the chiefs will be successful.....The 49ers also at the time that he got hurt, had the second best defense in football, and the number one rushing attack. That was the design with alex smith. Dont force things, dont turn the ball over, let your play makers make plays.

IM pretty sure that the eagles were trailing a whole lot last year. Something that in the past two years, alex smith hasnt been doing. And im sure that if the chiefs are winning games in the second half of games, they arent going to be throwing it all over, more like running charles all over people. Its not a stretch to say, that if charles stays healthy, hes going to easily have career highs.

It is also fair to say this in regards to alex smith. He is a great soldier. He will do what ever is asked of him. If andy asks him to throw 30 times a game, he will. i dont ever think alex is going to turn into aaron rodgers, but hes never going to be matt cassel......

Bullshit.

He throws it down the field less than anyone else in the NFL.

Out of one reason: fear of being picked.

Speaking Respectfully, can I ask why?

Hes ultra efficient. Why would increasing his throws, decrease his productivity? When he did throw, he was completing 70 %. If they were calling the same kind of pass plays, but more often, why would his production not exceed what he was doing?

Wrong. He throws less down the field than anyone in the nfl, because he throws the ball LESS than anyone in the nfl. Your argument doesnt wash with the actual stats of it Clay.

He was SECOND in the league in yards per attempt.....

Something is wrong with your logic.

I imagine Reid will count on him to throw the ball more than 5 yards down field.

Anything less than 6 wins in 2013 and 11 in 2014 and a playoff win means the trade was a failure: regardless if it's Alex / Chase Daniel (ha) / Alicki Stanzney (lol) under center.


The FO office opted to make a "win-now" move with a middling level game manager. The team's stars aren't getting any younger, and it's clear there's pressure from Clark to put butts in the seats and stop the fan revolt, so they've put Dorsey and Reid into a corner where they should logically blow up much of the roster, build their own team with draft picks and hitch their wagon to a rookie QB.

But they're not doing that, so they have to make a run with guys like JC, DJ, and Tamba in the remaining few years of peak performance and get to the Superbowl before 2015.

No SB wins by that season, then we're going to be in the exact same situation the team was at on Jan 4 '13

On avereage, a lot more than 20x/game....

My expectation is Trent Green levels of team success with at least a playoff win or two. Anything short of that is failure IMO. Anything beyond that will be a pleasant surprise.

The reason I have slightly higher expectations for AS than what Trent Green produced is because AS has the benefit of a team that's on the rise whereas Trent Green was on an aging team that was trying to keep the window open as long as possible. I think the AFC West will be an easier division over the next few years than it was in the early 2000s too.

actually you jackass, his wife is a former chargers cheer leader. You love to do research, research her before you open your filthy cock gobbler.

You do realize that ypa counts for more than where the receiver actually catches the ball right?

nods. I would too. But, ill say the same thing to you. He was second in yards per attempt, and none of the 49ers receivers were top 5 in yards after catch.......
