SNR pretty well hit the whole thing right on the head.
With Alex, come time to play the big boys, the true contenders.... it has to be 'sunny and 75' so to speak. Everything has to be hitting on all cylinders. Great defense. Good run game. Solid special teams. There is NO room for error when it comes time to play the New England's and Pittsburgh's of the NFL.
It is just the nature of the position he plays. The better your QB is, the more room for error in all of the other spots. So when you are like the Chiefs last year (and really any other year), by the time the playoffs roll around and the injuries have piled up, its too late. You are toast, because Alex Smith can't put the team on his back for the stretch run. Some of it because of skill, a lot of it because of his playing style.
