6-10 Team with Chase Daniel
Someone at the game today made a comment that we should play Chase Daniel next year and "get rid of that clown Smith". Like always, I wanted to see what the data suggests.
We have almost no sample size for Daniel as he's played 2 games. We have a large sample size for Alex though. QB rating is extremely correlated to wins in the NFL. The average rating is 84: a team can expect an additional win (or loss) moving approximately 6 points from the median. Alex had a 93 rating and Daniel had a 75 rating today. That's an implied swing of 3 full games if we assume static performance. While there is no way to know if Daniel would perform differently over the course of a season, it's doubtful any teams (or our own coaching staff) believe he could. Else, he'd be picked up as a starter. Whether Chiefs fans see any value finishing 9-7 vs 6-10 if you miss the playoffs regardless is another discussion. |

But what would Tyler Bray have done?

The playbook and the guy calling those plays is the problem right now. End of story.

If Bowe didn't drop that pass on the goalline, what would Chase's rating have been? What has Alex done this year that makes you think Chase didn't look like a complete copy of him today? Or is this some weak ass attempt to knock on a Mizzou guy?

Daniel got 1 day of practice with the starters. That's significant.

The offense would have to be damn near scrapped and re-worked to suit his particular talents.
Which would be so.....so terrible. How would we ever cope?

I believe Daniel would suck if given the opportunity to play 16 games. I KNOW Alex Smith sucks already. One costs a 1/4 of the other and you're never winning anything important with either.
Woo-hoo. The life of a Chiefs fan. |

In fact, I'm not saying this is the case, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if they did that on purpose. Again, not the case, but it wouldn't shock me. We all saw what Chase did last year, on the road, with the backups.

Chase would be a nice stopgap while we look for a real QB.

Daniel and Houston, or Alex and some new guy? What's your choice now?

You're not competing for a SB with either of these garbage QBs, so who gives a rat's ass?

Once the Chargers figured out how to defend the read option, Daniel's day was over. He's garbage too. Like Matt Flynn, unfortunately we have a guy who overperformed because of a defense that didn't know how to gameplan for him. |
