Chiefs Alex Smith was not the problem Sunday, sorry haters. - Page 13

TigeRRUppeRRcut · 09:10 PM

Despite the common thought here that Alex Smith held down the team Sunday, Smith's overall production to the team yesterday graded out very positive in 3 rankings:
Smith: QBR 94.1, QB rating 99, PFF 71.9
Winston: QBR 83.6, QB rating 97, PFF 50.7

https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro...-for-bucs-win/

"Smith gained positive expected points (EPA) on 77 percent of his plays on Sunday, the second-highest rate for a QB in a game this season (Dak Prescott, 83 percent versus Chicago in Week 3). Put simply, more than three-fourths of his plays contributed to the team’s scoring margin, given the context and situation." - http://www.espn.com/blog/statsinfo/p...s-excels-again

This is why we should use our brains instead of repeating the garbage fed to us by Mellinger and Teicher. If Smith only had 34 plays yesterday to do something with the ball and earns both a rushing and passing TD, a FG, to 1 INT (first red zone interception since 2013) and completes an outstanding 77% of passes ... we should probably focus on the real problem yesterday: The Defense. Who didn't show up and allowed Winston/Martin to hold the ball for 35 minutes, earn 24 first downs, and convert 68% of 3rd downs (league average is 40%).

Against the Bucs...
Alex Smith: 1 INT, 99 QB rating
Philip Rivers: 2 INTs, 80 QB rating
Russell Wilson: 2 INTs, 39 QB rating
Drew Brees: 3 INTs, 49 QB rating

The Alex Smiff interception in the end zone was the game losing play.

Tigerbob is spectacular any way you cut it.

Either he is one of the most talented trolls to ever grace CP, or he is vastly over-achieving in life by breathing.

Tiger how much Alex dick have you sucked? The limited amount of plays fall on his and Reid's hands. They couldn't convert on 3rd downs, but wow he threw the ball in the flat to a receiver for a high percentage and made one NFL quality qb throw so let's praise him. Yay

Not just Alex. The entire offense. The play calling, the philosophy, the QB, the run blocking, etc.

The offense as a whole just isn't good enough. When they are really clicking, they max out at "pretty good". When they are playing at their average they are just mediocre. Get used to it, because nothing notable is going to change.

50% 3rd down rate yesterday which exceeds the league average.

Facts. Not fiction.

Healthy Jeremy Maclin changes everything. I mean he did have a 1000+ yard/8 TD season with a 70% reception rate in 2015...

How'd that help our offense the beginning of this year, you ****ing reerun? Oh wait...I'm on ignore. Oh well.

ACL! CTE! ACL! CTE!

Why does it have to be one or the other? Why can't both sides of the ball get blamed for sucking dick yesterday and costing us the game against an inferior team? That's the way I see it. Now, I guess one can argue that our offense has been sucking more dick this year than our defense, but in terms of how both played yesterday I think they both had their fair share of gagging on a long, fat penis.

They did their job

Straight up. Winston had 300 yards passing and only 1 TD. I'd say that was fantastic under the circumstances.

All Alex had to do was BE A GAME MANAGER and not turn the ball over for the 14 pt swing. You know...what used to supposedly be one his strengths doesn't appear so strong anymore.
