Pathetic.

He's played poorly today

Thoughts?

Foles will take chances and let his playmakers make plays. It most likely will come with more interceptions over time, but it could also take the offense to an elite status.

If Foles starts throwing INTs and losing games, Reids paycheck will suffer from it. I think Reid starts Alex Smith because he is not much of a gambler.

Again, knowledgeable football viewers know that Foles will air it out against bad teams but will crumble against Good defenses. Smith is a proven product in the playoffs, Foles has no experience.

Common sense, use it.

Smith had been aggressive and taking shots downfield since the Oakland game.

Maybe not as much as Foles, but certainly far more than he ever has here in KC.

Alex is the starter if he's healthy, and I don't see that changing. As long as he continues to take as many shots as he has lately, he's the better all around quarterback.

At least we've won several games with Smith against good defenses before, which is all the playoffs is. I haven't seen that from Foles, so, that's a tough move to make.

Just for the record, I have been updating my avatar and details weekly after the game based on what the result has been. I'm hopeful Alex is able to play next week and starts for us with no further injuries this season. Dude needs to get the **** down faster though. He's our best option at QB right now.

I got banned from this thread for posting that Carr had more passing yards yesterday than anyone or any team in the history of the afc west? Seriously?

2014...Mark Sanchez QB rating 88,: Foles 82.
That's with cooper, McCoy, Jordan Matthews, Ertz, AND Jeremy Maclin. He had 13tds on 10 picks.

And you guys want him as a full time starter, even after the mess he made in St Louis??

This is as illogical as last year when people wanted Daniels and Murray to get the job.

And he still can't hang when the big boys come to town on defense...

This team can win with another solid starter. It doesn't need a 70 million dollar game manager.

Throws of 15 or more yards

Foles-4/7 132 yards TD
Alex-0/4 0 yards

And how so many people think otherwise boggles me. We are talking about a guy who was given up on by two teams and received a personal favor by Reid as sympathy to help restart his career since he drafted him. I still think Smith had 2 of the 3 best throws yesterday... The 3rd and 17 throw hit in stride to kelce and the Maclin TD.

Props to Foles finding the open guys yesterday, has a nice pocket to make progressions

What Foles did yesterday must worry you.

Jesus. You literally asked for it dude. See you in a week. Or not. No one here really gives a shit anyways, but hey! You just fell on your sword.

With the way Foles holds onto the ball too long, Denver would strip sack him twice, if not more in a full 4 quarter game.

But most don't consider these things when just watching the Colts defense.

He's an awesome backup, maybe the best. But he is not better for this team to win than Smith.
