This may be my biggest issue with Alex at QB.
First of all, I've never been one to be wowed by yardage stats. I couldn't give two shits less if Alex throws for 220 ypg. What I care about is whether or not he makes clutch plays when necessary. Thus far, he's been the polar ****ing opposite of clutch.
What's worse is the fact that a guy with his play style absolutely
needs to be clutch. He won't light up the scoreboard but his risk aversion will likely keep us within 7 points near the end of most games. The difference between making those plays and not making those plays in crunch time is Russell Wilson and Alex Smith. It's the difference between wins and losses. It's the difference between Super Bowls and first round playoff exits.
