Alex Smith voted Chiefs MVP

[Quesadilla Joe]

Well deserved.

Alex Smith has been named Chiefs MVP and Kareem Hunt the team's rookie of the year. The awards are voted on by the players. https://t.co/5VnYpzoqQm

Kelce, Hill, and Hunt were all far more valuable IMO.

Yet he went to Robinson on that 2 minute drill numerous times to score a TD. GTFOH

Alex deserves it. He's been durable and improved on his weaknesses. Would be nice to see what this team can do with Ware and Conley for a full season.

He improved on A weakness he had.....long ball attempts and completions.

What he didnt improve on was:

pocket prescence
3rd down conversions
red zone play
field vision
end of game play
tight window attempts/completions

Good statistical season from Alex. Best of his career. But those of us who analyze his game know his season was no where near as good as the numbers. Too many late game fails.

Players realized they could up his trade value to help the team next season. Well played.

Yup, crickets on the offensive and defensive playcalling/adjustments on KCs side of the field.

You know, you're right... who am I to think we could ever advance in the playoffs without things being perfect for Alex Smith. Shame on those coaches for not getting his receivers wide open every time.

Oh they were open and blanketed but dropped passes that NFL players should catch.

You Alex only guys make the argument for the rest of us... it all comes back to the fact that every little thing wasn't perfect enough around Alex Smith. Every single year. Injuries, play calling, defense, etc... it all has to be just right for the guy.

Which is never, ever going to happen in the NFL.

Kidding right, somehow lead the NFL in passer rating but no good in anything you list? NFL has nothing on you.

I can use the last game as an example. He was the best player the Chief's had (except maybe Kelce but then someone had to make the throws to him, no?)

So on the last drive "end of game play" we have an example of Alex doing what you say he didn't or couldn't. Made a great throw to Wilson "tight window" that alligator arms dropped/didn't catch. Wilson saw that FS and as always didn't give a 100% or just miss timed his jump (if you can call it a jump) on the play cause he would have been hit. Bye the way, he had "pocket presence" on that play as well as he stepped into that throw with a free pass rusher coming right at him.

Its a team game and if freaking Wilson makes a great catch he and Alex are hero's but that's football. I hope Wilson is gone from this team cause when it counts in the future, he's gonna pull the same bullcrap with Pat.

Don't be mad that I shut your post down by giving you facts instead of some made up bullshit. You said he couldn't get it done without Kelce, Hill, Hunt blah blah blah. I showed you that he did. Now you're saying things weren't perfect?

Did Butker need everything to be perfect for him to make the fg?
Did Hill need all of those passes he dropped to be perfect?
Did Charles?
Did Wilson?
Did the defense need the wind to blow perfectly so that they could stop the Titans?

Like I said. GTFOH because I just shut you down again.

You haven't shut shit down, moron. How about 7 years worth of evidence that Alex Smith needs one of the most talented rosters in the league to be competent? It's undeniable.

The offense could barely muster a first down in the 2nd half, and Smith reverted to cuck mode, refusing to make simple throws that you have to at least attempt in the playoffs. I guarantee you that had Alex not shit down his leg for the entirety of the half and just executed the basic throws he should have, no one is saying a word about him today. Mostly because we'd be preparing to play the Patriots.

It was a team loss. But a team loss that a truly great QB would have prevented by not shitting down his leg with each opportunity presented.
