We need to extend Alex Smith

[Alex Smith 4Ever]

Alex played the game of his life and he was BETRAYED by the defense

Alex Smith dropped 44 points on the Colts and somehow still lost. Alex is a hero. 44 points can win you a SUPERBOWL. What happened to the best defense in the league? They sure weren't out there tonight. You could cut all of them and it wouldn't matter. What matters is having Alex.

At least he spends the money. One of the many frustrating things about Pioli is that we always had tons of cap space and yet he wouldn't spend the money to fill any of the many holes we had.

I hope the don't extend AS right away. I hope they get some other pieces in place and worry about the extension later.

Hopefully getting someone to explain to Andy Reid about situational football and when to run the ball.

I am optimistic, but that isn't what is fueling my thought process.

It's all about risk-reward.

If he gets a Cutler-like contract, that's not balanced risk vs. reward.

He will if you wait a year and he blows up.

Cutler's contract didn't contain a signing bonus. His base salary for next year is 22.5M.

So yeah, I do.

Did you really just essentially post, "He was right except where he was wrong?"

You're a bigger ****ing idiot than I realized. I knew you were a damn troll, but this is bad even for you.

I don't see Cutler and Alex as the same. Alex gave money back to Cryner's.

I think he wants to Win and he wants to win in KC, after all they gave him his big second chance. He is going to demand a huge contract.

He strikes as the guy with something to prove.

Just do a deal like this.

Flacco cap number first 3 years of deal

1.6.8M
2.14.8M
3.14.5M


Year 4 the Ravens can get out of the deal and save 2.7m vs the cap.

That's definitely something that gives me hope. I don't think Smith is the kind of guy that will even ask for a contract that will hamstring the rest of the team.
