He's always extracted value from his qbs and gotten them to play at the highest level they can, nothing more nothing less.
Save for Alex smith.
The vast majority of throws in the nfl are around the line of scrimmage. This isn't some crazy and Reid phenomenon, it just doesn't work because the defense doesn't have to respect the deep or intermediate areas of the field.
When watching other teams offenses, it's normal to see 7 defensive players on the normal tv sideline feed. When it's an Alex smith offense, you see 9.
