Alex Smith vs. Rich Gannon

My view is that Andy Reid has no use for "game manager" QBs. What skills did Rich Gannon have that Alex Smith does not? Rich Gannon passed for about 4500 yards one year a Reid-like offense. Why can't Alex Smith do the same? Not saying he will, but help me understand why it's not going to happen.

Gannon's one MVP year was an aberration. He was just a guy, for all the legend status he gets in KC. But I'd probably be happy with regular Gannon production, a la around 3800 yards, 25-30 TD against 10-12 picks, 60-65%.

(career numbers for Smith...)

So, we're hoping our all-in, win now move at QB that cost us potentially two 2nd's just turns into Rich Gannon?

Don't get me wrong, Gannon was a marginally above average NFL QB for a while there, but I guess if Andy Reid got his dream system QB I'd hope for even better results.

People can minimalize what Rich Gannon did as a player.

This is the bottom line.

HE WAS THE LEAGUE MVP, and when he got with a coach that utilized him to maximize his strengths, he went to the super bowl.

That doesn't minimize the fact that he was a GOOD player.

Gannon was clutch. 16 fourth quarter comebacks and 20 game winning drives. He was highly underrated.

At least the 49'rs where smart enough to stick with Kaepenick so that must mean Smith = Grback, Kaepenick = Gannon.

If those kind of mediocre numbers are all we get for two 2nd rounders spent on a guy hand-picked to run Andy Reid's offense, then it wasn't worth it.

I realize the QB situation has been woeful here for a long time. But we should expect more.

Damn right we should but it just goes to show you how our fan expectations and standards(collectively speaking) for our QB have lowered.

But in all seriousness I don't give a rat's ass about stats as long as our QB wins and F"N Gannon WON we got the chance most of the time.

Oh, please! Gannon was averaging a whopping 127 ypg in six starts that season. Grbac threw for 260 in the playoff game. Explain to me how the hell was Rich Gannon going to double his normal passing production? Your revisionist take was a humongous waste of electrons before you go and waste trillions more by adding a k to Grbac's name. Gannon's success was a product of Gruden, and it took Guden 4 years to draw it out if him. Marty couldn't have done it in 1000 years. How in the hell would 127 ypg Gannon made a difference in that game?
