Of course, if he throws for 300 yards and 3 TDs, the board will explode.
And I have said several times (and I think some people are glossing over because I'm not going into full-on homer mode regarding who Alex Smith has been and can be), I really do hope he elevates his game and proves he can win games like that in a Chiefs uniform.

I AM a Chiefs fan. I HOPE he succeeds because that's what is good for my team. I HOPE Andy Reid is right about Smith.

I came into the year saying he'll have to show he can do what Reid thinks he can do before I'll buy all the way in. I'm not going to apologize for sticking to my guns on that and not going Chiefs red herpaderp after beating a terrible team and a mediocre team with very tepid performances at QB from Smith.

Just because he doesn't suck doesn't mean Chiefs fans have to act like he's a true star QB.
