Quote:
If you were to check the football dictionary for quarterback purgatory, Alex Smith’s face would be right there. Smith’s evolution into a super-conservative passer has been a major issue for the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl hopes. Fifteen years ago, Smith may have been regarded higher, but the league has shifted, emphasizing playmaking at the quarterback position.
A major reason for Smith’s low interception numbers (23 in the past four seasons) is his unwillingness to make somewhat difficult throws. He completely averts risk whenever possible. This hinders the offense because the Chiefs lack dynamic plays.
Quarterbacks with too much variance are an issue, but there is a happy medium to strive for. Winning with Alex Smith will be impossible until he shows the creativity required to produce big plays as a passer.
