Dude, good luck finding a QB that will suit up and be healthy for almost five years. Seriously. It's like you all forgot about the Haurd, Thigpen, Croyel, Brady Quinn, Orton, Cassel shit show years.

You have ZERO appreciation for the going rate for QBs.

Chiefs paid Smith 67 million, about 13.5 million a year.

A lot of money sure, but not for a QB that is going to start pretty much every game for five seasons.

Damon Huard averages per start in 2006:

Alex Smith averages per start, 2013-2016

222.4 yards
1.24 TD
$880,327

LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO

Don't tell me we didn't overpay for Alex Smith.

Don't you ****ing DARE.

So your basis for the Chiefs overpaying Alex Smith is Damon Huard and his breakout season where he had the 2nd best Quarterback Rating, which he had while performing on a contract for a 3rd string QB? Good ****ing LORD, I've seen you cherry pick shit before, but this takes the cake.

Because Huard immediately signed a lucrative deal to be a starting quarterback after that season. ROFL

He was still being paid backup money when he signed an extension following that season, because he performed at a backup QB level.

As Alex did for four seasons.

Overpaid, period.

Sure thing, Coop.

It's only flawed for the Chiefs, too. Not any other team! Those drop stats are legitimate! In fact, they're flawed in the OPPOSITE direction. Every other team's receivers should be ranked higher, and the Chiefs 32nd.

In fact, the Chiefs pass protection ratings were all flawed, too! They should be ranked MUCH lower. MUCH MUCH lower.

It's just amazing that with all those shitheads ****ing everything up around him Alex Smith managed to drag the Chiefs to a Top 5 season on offense.

Dumbass.

Now we're getting into the PFF bullshit stats, but guess what-- Sandy, Tigger, and ChiefsPASquirrelTits' precious passer rating stat is nothing more than a made-up advanced metric of sorts as well.

This shit puts to bed any notion at all that Alex Smith is some precious commodity that we're really going to miss. If Smith's supporting cast of offensive weapons puts up remotely a HINT of the efficiency they did in 2017, Mahomes will probably dwarf Alex Smith in passing yards and TDs in 2018. He's probably going to ****ing push 5000, I imagine.

I would understand the regular season win angle, if Smith was at least an entertaining QB to watch. But the dude is the Toyota Camry of QBs. Just an appliance with no excitement.

In the divorce you get a lot of money and a house.

You don't stop loathing that person.

Guess we knew it all along

That's alright, that's okay
We were walking through some youth
Smilin' through some pain
That's alright, that's okay
Let's turn the page

In other words, no need to be mad, just move on.

No. Wrong. Incorrect. Factually inaccurate.

Smith's QB rating from 2013-2016 was 92.2.

That would have ranked 17th in 2015.

His YPA was 7.0.

That would have ranked 25th in 2015.

Backup level play.

Blow me.

QBs who had more yards per start and more TDs per start than Alex Smith from 2013-2016.

Ryan Tannehill
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Carson Palmer
Sam Bradford
Josh McCown
Blake Bortles
Kirk Cousins
Jay Cutler

LMAO

Overpaid.

Hey, at least you shifted the goalposts from "backup QB" to just "overpaid".
