Not so much a player comparison on a numbers level more to do with the situation. People say Alex Smith is Cassel 2.0 another back up QB and that's not accurate. He was a starter in college and every year he's been in the NFL. Kinda like Brees. He's also gotten better every year. We traded for him like we did Trent Green who would have been the starter in St Louis if not for Rodney Harrison. He was like a #2 starter more then a back up. Anyway Smith is kind of a combination of those things. I certainly don't think anyone believes that Alex Smith can put up Drew Brees like numbers. He could put up Trent Green type numbers though.
Edit:And he has won a playoff game which is something the Chiefs haven't had on their roster since Montana.
