Chiefs We need to extend Alex Smith - Page 50

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.

I wish we could go back in time, keep Jamaal out for the first half like he was, then bring him back in for the second half. Holy balls, Indy's goose would have been cooked.

If he could of been cleared, that would of been crazy awesome.

Yeah, it really falls on everyone; but Alex, in all his infinite wisdom, should have known.

That kind of situational awareness should just go without saying. Andy should have had the guys on the sidelines, huddled up, going over what was expected of them just to be safe though.

Catch every pass, don't run out of bounds if at all possible, absolutely no turnovers, and let that ****ing play clock wind down before every snap.

The clock was the enemy, man. The clock was the enemy.

Why doesn't Andy Reid just have one guy whose sole job is to advise him on clock management?

Seriously. Anyone on CP would happily do that job in exchange for his current salary.

It is strange, for sure.

Seriously, I've played guys in Madden with more situational awareness than Reid's shown in his time here.

As I have said, Andy needs help with situational football.

He really needs to hire an adviser. He is a good coach damn that mofo just doesn't make the best decisions sometimes.

Let me preface this by saying again - Smith had a great game.

But some of y'all are ****ing hypocrites.

People bitch and moan all year about Bowe raising his game. What's he do in the playoffs?

150 and a score. Great game, yet people just want to focus on one play.

Meanwhile, Alex raises HIS game as well, and people want to ignore the mistakes he made.

Some of y'all don't even know what your arguing about anymore.

There's not a player or coach who is blameless in this loss. No one played/coached a perfect game. If it makes you feel better to blame just Bowe or Lewis, while absolving others, feel free.

But you look like petulant children in doing so.

same thing can be said about your brood.

Smith plays well but some still only focus on the few mistakes he made
Bowe plays well and some defend/ignore the mistakes he made

petulant

Holy ****, you're reeruned.

I'm the ONLY person in this thread that isn't blaming a single player or position group.

Dipshit.

I have had that position as well, it was a team loss including the coaches. As far as AS goes, the buck stops there, as he was the one at the helm of the O with opportunity at the end.

My apologies, Ed. I apparently missed it.

No problem friend, we are all worn out by this latest debacle in the long line of many. You had to travel after that game, glad it wasn't me!

Messier · 01-09-2014, 01:17 PM

I understand you lose as a team, and that there were things the O and Smith could've done to pull out the win, but it's small, very small compared to what really lost the game.

Answer this. Regardless of not running the clock or missing a few throws. Should the Chiefs have won with what Smith did? Were the numbers the O put up enough for a team to win nine times out of ten? Hell 19 times out of 20. The O played winning football without the one player everyone here would say they CAN'T win without. I have no complaints with the O.

Out of over 250 games in the NFL this season 2 were lost while a team scored 40 points.

I think if I were to tell anyone before the game that Smith would lose Charles 5 plays into the game and the offense still scores 44 points everyone would have said it would be a win

Would you care to reference a single poster doing that? I believe you're full of shit.
