MELLINGER: Should The Chiefs Move On From Smith?
Yep, another Alex Smith thread - but a solid and fair read from Sam Mellinger.

You folks realize MicJones disagrees about that play right? He says Alex couldn't have made it because he would have to throw across his body.
He makes an interesting point. Last edited by Titty Meat; 01-25-2017 at 07:01 PM.. |

It's pretty clear that Tyreek was aggressively used as a decoy early in this game. My sense is, he was sent on the pattern with instructions to operate as a decoy, probably to draw the FS, which he got at least a strong lean out of him [though Kelce contributed to that as well]. The RB out of the backfield running to the top of the screen was probably designed to do a more aggressive fly pattern, and Alex ranged right to set up for a pass over the man coverage, without the FS in danger of ranging over. Should we have an offensive system where Tyreek AND Smith instinctively know that when he's coming that wide open to ditch the decoy pretense and go with it? Perhaps. Was the RB wrong to sit down as long as he did under the coverage before running fly? He's opening wide, as wide as Reek on the other side, when Smith runs out of real estate. Was the play that resulted due to Smith being locked in to Reek being a decoy, or was it Smith being convinced that Reek would not be ready for a pass since he went out as a decoy? Who knows. But I don't think it was a brain fart or a panic. Smith was designed to roll out right. Only the spy was tracking him down too fast, and the RB ran past coverage too late.

After he runs to his right, yes. But before that he was straight on. |

Another thing I'd like to bring up because you all are distracted with Alex Smiths play funny how Dion Lewis was able to get back and had no issues with his knee while all 3 guys for us did. How is it the Chiefs medical staff isn't being scrutinized is beyond me.

This is how MEN play the position of NFL quarterback with a free rusher coming at them.
