Chiefs We need to extend Alex Smith - Page 12

Alex Smith 4Ever · 01-05-2014, 02:42 PM

Alex played the game of his life and he was BETRAYED by the defense

Alex Smith dropped 44 points on the Colts and somehow still lost. Alex is a hero. 44 points can win you a SUPERBOWL. What happened to the best defense in the league? They sure weren't out there tonight. You could cut all of them and it wouldn't matter. What matters is having Alex.

Resign him

Elite quarterbacks don't grow on trees.
There are maybe 5 of them in the entire NFL.

Smith played out of his mind on Saturday. 65% completion rate, 378 passing yards, 57 rushing yards, 4 TD's, and a passer rating of 119+. That's basically an unimpeachable playoff performance.

Extend him, yesterday.

44 points, 380 yards passing, 57 yards rushing, 4 TDs and no interceptions. What more should a QB have to do?

JFC this shit again? nice cherry picking. I didn't put the blame all on alex. I put it pretty much mostly on the D but this was a TEAM LOSS plain and simple. What the **** did the offense do in the second half? The entire team blew this.

I would rather see a 3 year 36 mil deal.

13 pts in the second half, plus a 21 pt lead going into the half, should have been more than enough for the defense to hold the lead. Heck, The Saints and Eagles scored a combine 13 pts in the first half.

I'd take a 5 year deal with $50 million.

As much as I hate breaking up an orgy. It was one game and a game where he only mustered 6 points while the other team scored 35 for a duration. He could ot even extend drives to chew up clock although I know the weapons at hand were lack luster at the time. While he did flash some Rich Gannon like creativity and play making ability at times I'm still concerned about his down field accuracy. The one bomb was Avery beating a gimped up CB by more then 5 yards and he had to be taken out of the game because of injury.

Let's also not forget it was 1 game. Elvis Grbac once threw for 500 yards in 1 game. Kelly Holcomb once threw for 430 and 3 TD's in the playoffs against the Steelers defense.

I'm still on the fence with him right now. I'd like to have seen a little bit more of that 1st half in the other 16 games this year. I guess all you can do is try to get better weapons and see what happens next year, but in no way to you lock yourself in to a long term deal here. Keep looking for that next superstar in the draft and if Alex takes the next step to top 10 type QB then you have a nice problem to have if you have 2 guys on the roster you can roll with. In an ideal world you'd like to have him play it out next year with a better supporting cast and see how it goes before giving him another contract, but I just don't think that's going to be an option.

When the defense is laying down and you see the opponent coming back fast you have to go out there and SCORE. They didn't. JFC this is not rocket science. should our lead been enough to win? Absolutely. But it wasn't. We needed more points and didn't get them.

If they make it easy on the Chiefs to get out of the contract after year three I would be all for it.

Right on BigCat!

Back load the contract, guarantee the first 2 years, do a $10 mill sign bonus. Done.

Although, I've got no idea what the hell I'm talking about.

And he plays two of those years, gets hurt in year 2, Bray comes in and is all of the sudden the next Tom Brady, we win 4 Superbowls in 10 years, and the curse is gone. I like your thinking.

You should just stop posting when it comes to Alex.

Avery down, Charles, Down, Davis down, Flowers and Houston down....

I'm going to put you in a championship fight, but before you start, I'm gonna blind fold you and tie your right hand behind your back..

What kind of result did you expect from the team when those guys all went down. Alex was pretty much the reason that there was a game to watch.

JENKINSWINS · 01-06-2014, 04:49 PM

While watching the game I heard one of the the announcers talking about him being a game manager and then he had to take his foot out mouth after Alex flicked a shovel pass to Sherman. He sounded like a bunch of morons on here. He continues to prove everyone wrong but talking heads in the media sway so many people that it's not even funny. I heard some dumb Niner fans say that Kap won the game with his feet and arm yesterday and that Alex could not do that. I guess they didn't watch his game against the Colts.
