And I hadn't paid much attention but I figured Mariota was at least being Alex Smith level competent. NOPE. That was a Twilight Zone Tyler Palko performance.

FFS, it would be better if he took the Hutard approach and shut his eyes and threw it wherever Pitts was supposed to be. |
Man, Alex Smith had limitations (certainly physical ones by the time he got to us after the botched shoulder surgery in SF), but the CP dogging of the guy has never been fair.
He wasn't GOOD ENOUGH to take a team all the way, but he was still an above average QB. He was a Cousins, but we obviously needed a Mahomes.
But Mariota is in no way, by any stretch of realistic comparison anywhere near an Alex Smith.
