Alex Smith is a solid QB, sorry haters. Bucs win 5th game in a row.
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 Last edited by TigeRRUppeRRcut; 12-11-2016 at 09:10 PM.. |

Well, teams are smart. Why wouldn't you shadow Alex all day long? You know he isn't going to beat you throwing down the field, so you can afford to keep 7-8 guys in the box and force him to make a play with his arm. That's called keeping him out of his comfort zone, and it's working like a charm, no matter who we play.

But the actual reason Smith's numbers are down is because he is throwing more by percentage which is what Reid wants to limit his hits and make good use of schwartz. Come playoffs, if we make it, Smith will be more aggressive if he needs to be running |

Dak Prescott only 160 yards in the 4th quarter with two TDs, he sucks. Cutler would have 250 yards by now -CP

That's ****ing it. Gloves are coming off.
Alex needs to go the **** away. I don't care how he does it. If it has to be on a stretcher, so be it. He just needs to go the **** away, as do his little harpies |

Watching Kirk Cousins just battle out there and look awesome in doing so (displaying SO much improvement from his first couple years) makes me sad. Ah, I wish we drafted that guy.

They were only competitive in that game because of a blown assignment on Desean Jackson in the 4th quarter. What game were you watching? ![]() I'll take Dak over Cousins every day of the week. |
