No. It matters *very* little if your starting QB puts up 210 1/0 TDs to INTs or 3/2 ratio and 305 if you ultimately win. What *does* matter when those yards are earned and points put on the board. Nobody rational would be bitching Smith got 55 of those yards and the TD on the final offensive possession of the game to either take the lead or to salt away a game.

Problem is that outside of maybe five total games in a decade long career Smith has proven incapable of doing just that. Prior to the head injury Smith was looking like he had the potential to actually come up big when the moment calls for it, which is what most rational fans who have been Smith skeptics are really asking for. Issue being they've been against awful defenses.

Foles very well might be totally incapable of putting points on the board when it matters and inept against an average or better defense. But he doesn't have the track record to exactly prove that point. Smith, on the other hand, has a track record of being foiled in critical situations or against average to good defenses.

Q'ing myself here but we know Smith's ceiling and his floor. We don't know Foles' ceiling but have a pretty good idea that Foles' floor is much lower than Smith's.

I like Foles, as well as Smith. If Foles really is better, then bring it on.

I respect Smith enough that I'd want him to retire before he gets killed. Dude has too many gigabytes to risk, and will do so much more in life after football.

If Foles comes in and fails horribly, I can at least laugh at some of you.

If Foles comes in and is great, you can laugh at me, but I'll be smiling over winning.. so go on ahead.

If Foles doesn't come in at all, then I will go back to watching Smith win... and then likely wave g'bye to Foles, as they decline to pick up his expensive QB2 option for next yr.


I'm good. :)

Alex Smith's career would be over if he were a niner this season, in all probability.

However, there are a couple-few Alexsexual fans here who I literally do think primarily like him because they think he's cute or something.

I am and have been pretty hard on you and I hope I am wrong....but theres no way it ends poorly for you because you simply are going to walk away when your boy leaves. Youre not really a fan of the team so much as you are one player on it.

Not trying to be a dick or anything but just stating the obvious...Out of all the niner dumbasses here youre my favorite....but I dont get the idea of being a fan so much of one player you galabant around to ehatever team they go to....especially if ASS11 is that player...

But anyway, you have nothing to lose here..I agree.

Whatever you say, man. I have gone through this so many times, and apparently, it doesn't get through. So I will only now say, "see ya in 1-6 years from now, as new QB _________ is the regular starter under center for KC. I'll be right here.
