Chiefs Alex Smith was not the problem Sunday, sorry haters. - Page 78

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

the problem is if the playoffs started today 6 of these 8 teams would get in and these are the QBs throwing touchdowns these days in the AFC.

Tannehill is done. But the fact that Alex Smith is the worst of the bunch at throwing passing touchdowns among the AFC playoff potentials; worse than Brock Oseweiler WHO GOT BENCHED TODAY, is sad.

The passing game cannot convert like the rest of the AFC teams can. And that's a problem.

No worries, playoff Smith will show up.

Smith's QB ratings against opposing defense:
TB 99
Denver 80
Atlanta 125
Oakland 109 & 96
Tennessee 56

So that's one game over a course of a 4-1 run that he played below average.
Big ****ing deal.

So what happened to stats dont matter?

If not, I'm going to want him outta KC too. Retire, move onto some other team, don't care.

He needs to play better or piss off. If the next QB plays the same way or worse, oh ****ing well. Just shows that no one was going to survive Andy Reid, the playcaller.

Hes competent enough to make you fear the unknown, you could do worse.

Yet not a franchise, top tier QB. Fairly low ceiling for QB of playoff caliber teams. Greatest strength is supposedly wont loose you games.

Hes good enough that the 2000 Ravens could have won with him. The 2002 Bucs probably too, but the point is you have to be really strong in other areas to make up for meh, at QB. If the Chiefs D/ST can guarantee at least one score every game from here on out, and throughout the playoffs Id say with a few other breaks along the way this team could win it all.

Yeah but until we see the all-22, it would be safe to assume that Titans D adjusted and phased Kelce out in the 2nd half.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 12-18-2016, 05:21 PM

Good rule of thumb: If someone is using QB rating as the bedrock of their argument, they don't know a ****ing thing about the game of football.
