Chiefs Alex Smith was not the problem Sunday, sorry haters. - Page 109

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

I seriously think he is related. I'm thinking like a 2nd cousin or something. He has taken ASS11 bashing WAY too personal.

Yep, not even a football fan just some defender of the "Smith faith".

Pathetic.

I'm not sure. Obviously people can lie but he posted once about "watching a movie with the wife" or something or other.

I think bashers have no perspective how annoying it is when this place reliably blames everything in the organization on the QB.

Heck we've had fluke injuries to defense players blamed on Alex making them take the field too much.

I understand, but Sandy takes it to a weird and uncomfortable level. When ASS had an ultra shitty streak, Sandy just posted something about how he was just happy such a great guy got paid all that money. Gave 2 shits about the Chiefs organization.

If Bashers aren't putting both Smith AND Reid on the culpability dais, they're doing it all wrong. They are inextricably linked.

Drives me up a wall.

Talks about him sometimes as if Alex and him have this super interpersonal ESP-like connection.

He's like BIG with Troy Nickerson minus the fake personal accomplishments.

As compared to the people who won't blame the team leader, the highest paid player on the team, for anything? Talk about annoying!

As for the injuries, weren't some talking-heads making excuses for Alex when he was having accuracy issues in the weeks after he was concussed? As if... He hardly needs a concussion to be a generally inaccurate thrower. I know, I know, not the same thing, but getting his hard leads to injuries, getting hit hard a LOT (because you're out there a lot), and because you're gassed (and not protecting yourself) leads to more injuries. Minimally Alex's inability to be like Brady (and sustain drives because he's awesome) has worn-out the defense by the 3rd quarter, and others might not be 100% off base with suggesting that Alex-aided exhaustion is leading to a higher number of plays and the associated higher wear-and-tear on their bodies.

At least some of us are calling out the lower-paid O-line for not helping Alex's mediocre QB play keep the defense off the field.

Edit: I've clearly blamed Andy for sucking on Sunday's too...

People; please understand that Reid is just as much responsible for this offensive nightmare as poor ol' Alex is for being, well, Alex.

Yes, Alex sucks and Andy sucks. But I'd keep Andy around for Monday-Friday, but send him to the buffet for all of Saturday and Sunday. Alex can stay if he's willing to take a 90% pay cut, and not dress-out.

Because I think they read these forums (I know I couldn't resist), I hope that inspires Alex to anger, change and not suck anymore...
