100% agree

Not really sure but it seems like alex was playing a little scared this season with the obvious curtailing of his scrambling....

and ironically during the colts game the scrambling play that looked like a called play is what got him clobbered..

that was such an odd call....

There is a lot of dumb shit posted on this site, but saying that people are only interested in seeing the offense move the ball and score so they can get fantasy football points is one of the dumbest. Idiots....all of them.

Alex knows what happened Sunday, moreso than anyone else. Now that he's fully coming back to and looking in retrospect, last Sunday probably has him scared shitless...and I don't blame him.

Take a week off Harbaugh said, your job will be waiting for you once you feel healthy to start again he promised...

Yeah, but what did they do exactly? From my understanding, they asked him previous set "baseline" questions which he answered correctly (or "passed"). They checked his eyes. Asked if he was "okay".

It's not as if they did a CT scan of his brain to verify that no swelling occurred or that his normal functions were impaired.

Well, he IS hurt. He has a laceration behind his ear(s) and bumps all over his head. Often times, the concussion symptoms don't occur for days after the initial injury.

I'm sorry but I can see no reason to fault him for taking precautionary measures with his brain, especially when there's so much that doctors and science don't know about brain function and trauma.

No more scared then dudes like JC and Houston, really. Top paid players don't feel like they can go, then they won't. No problem. Smith has taken a beating behind KC lines, and has earned the money and rest.

If Foles lights shit up, then Smith will be a great depth QB2 for his final season as he hangs em up early next year.

Don't know why some are acting jilted or troubled about the decision. It's not like they wanted him out there anyway.

I'll bet Foles won't top 190 yards and 0/0 TDs to INTs.

I bet he throws for 240 and 2 TDs with an INT.

And all of the Smith fans will scream from the mountain tops that he threw an INT and didn't eclipse 300 yards like we wanted.

And I'll look down and whisper......"WE WON".

So Bray will be active.... will this be a first for him?

Reid won't put Foles in a position to upstage Alex. Mark my words.

The initial sideline test is that. ONCE in the lockeroom there's more to it iirc. I read about it recently, I'll see if I can find an article.

It's a bad look to say he's asymptomatic and not play. Not necessarily on him, but on the whole ordeal.

Will Smith ballwashers get banned from the gameday thread for talkin shit on Foles?
