Chiefs Alex Smith was not the problem Sunday, sorry haters. - Page 97

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

You have your history completed messed up

Unless you have a defense that dominates like the 4 in opoponax's list, you have to have an elite game manager if you don't have e a superstar like Rodgers. Eli and big Ben won Super bowls because they were elite closers during their respective Super Bowl runs. Alex Smith has been decent closing games thus year where last year he was terrible. At this point, the bigger worry is Alex and Andy's complete inability to protect a lead.

Playoff time, I haven't seen a game where Smith/Reid weren't being aggressive on offense to try and win the game. It's like Reid is cautious about getting guys hurt during the regular season and likes to play it close but then it blows up in his face. In the houston playoff game, maclin got hurt when the game was well out of reach so I can see his side. But he's playing ultra conservative which is essentially playing to lose.

You and your miserable ilk don't speak for the rest of us

Why are you saying 'us' ? You've already proven you don't have faith in Alex being able to get us to and win a super bowl. You're a mixed up little critter aren't you.
The bet I offered should be a slam dunk for you if you truly believe the smattering of shit you throw around here about Alex. Why so hesitant ? Could it be that you running around here like a Banty rooster crowing about Alex is nothing more than attention whoring ?
Your posts earlier in this thread about how many views/posts it's got combined with your lack of faith in your boi Alex pretty much prove that. Just come out of the closet and admit it.

TigerUppercut you shall hence forth be know as ATTENTIONBITCH.

I mean, I guess we could fly another banner stating our demands....

It's not sunk yet. The worst part is the the skipper doesn't think it's sinking at all. One "ah shucks" and the props will turn, the bilges empty, and the ship will ride high in the water yet again. And off to SB victory harbor from there.

It's THAT simple... Ask Andy...

Then....

Well you won't be saying this a whole lot more

After reading 3 months of your posts I have yet to find anything interesting or valuable from your comments. You provide close to nothing other than the occasional entertainment at your own expense.

You are a fair weather fan until proven otherwise.

The offense is not getting better, and it is nowhere near good enough to Trent Dilfer or Brad Johnson it's way to a SB win.

Yes, without attempting to plug the holes... this team is a sinking ship.

ya, because last week, how did the game end? how did the first donk game end?

..and when your DB's lead in tackles, your front seven is hurting.

Yeah, I've tried to forget all about the '13 Indy playoff game as well.
