When did Tampa Bay have 4 straight winning seasons and playoff wins with Dilfer at the helm?

Right.

Except, wrong.

Alex isn't Dilfer
Dilfer nevertheless won the SB

This bullshit about 'you're eventually going to have to win a shootout' mantra is such BS. The overwhelming tendency is for quality defenses to hold up through the playoffs for champions.

Even the Saints and Manning's Colts found the promised land with their best defensive efforts.

Difference is, Dane is antagonistic . . . to you.

Clay, whatever you think of his presence, is purposefully and pointedly antagonistic to the entire fan base.

That is bullshit lets look at the saints winning season and games alex would have most likely lost

Dallas Cowboys 17–24
Detroit Lions 45–27
New York Giants 48–27
Miami Dolphins 46–34
Atlanta Falcons 35–27
Washington Redskins 33–30
Minnesota Vikings 31–28

that is 7 games alex would have most likely lost if he was starting for the saints that's the issue I have with smith even the best teams get in shoot outs.

I'm talking about the playoffs, the point where you say Alex runs out of real estate.

If you don't see his schtick moving well beyond merely disliking Alex, you're just not paying attention.

Like I said, openly antagonistic. He'll admit it if you ask him.

Looks like Foles made the entire offense better.

Quote:

Quarterback grade: Nick Foles, 74.3

With Alex Smith knocked out of the game twice by hits to the head on plays where he slid, Nick Foles saw his first extended playing time as a Kansas City Chief and held the fort admirably for the Chiefs’ injured starter. Kept clean by his offensive line, Foles spread his throws around to every area of the field, testing every region of the Colts’ defense with five or more passes aimed behind the line-of-scrimmage, short, at the intermediate level and deep. The efficiency of the short passing game didn’t match Alex Smith at his best but Foles hit on the play down the field that kept the Chiefs out of the home team’s reach.

Top offensive grades

TE Travis Kelce 90.0
LT Eric Fisher 83.6
WR Tyreek Hill 80.2
LG Zach Fulton 74.9
C Mitch Morse 73.2

Chiefs raise their game for their backup quarterback

The Chiefs elevated their play when their backup was forced into action with both the offensive line and skill position players doing their bit to see Kansas City to victory. Though the offensive line allowed three sacks to the Colts, that accounted for nearly 50 percent of the dropbacks that they allowed either quarterback to be pressured on. With ball in hand Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill were electric, with Hill impressing further on punt returns averaging just shy of 20 yards per return as well as coming up just shy of 20 yards per reception. Hill racked up his 183 all-purpose yards on only 21 offensive snaps and four special teams returns.

Clay had absolutely nothing to do with SOC.

Get your facts straight.
