MELLINGER: Should The Chiefs Move On From Smith?

Yep, another Alex Smith thread - but a solid and fair read from Sam Mellinger.

Quote:
The only way forward is through brutal honesty and realistic self-evaluation. No sport moves as quickly, or with such little empathy, as the NFL.

Only fools assume what happened in the past will continue to happen in the future, unless that assumption is “the Patriots will win every year from now until armageddon because Bill Belichick is an alien.”

And so it is that this particular group of Chiefs players and executives attempt to solve a puzzle that no group of Chiefs players and executives has solved since 1970, which is so long ago CBS erased the tape to save money:

Get to the Super Bowl.

And it’s hard to believe that will happen without addressing the quarterback situation.

This is not a call for the Chiefs to walk away from Alex Smith, even though this is the first offseason since his arrival in which they could do it without a fatal salary cap hit. This is a call for them to look, to try, to make sure they don’t have access to a better option — whether that’s Tony Romo in a trade, Deshaun Watson in the draft (which would almost certainly require a trade up), or anything else.

I wonder what specifically he's referencing there.

Like how taking sacks that knocks his team out of field goal range instead of throwing an interception/incomplete keeps his passer rating and completion percentage higher, but costs the team points when the margin for error with his style of play is very slim...or is he talking about something completely different.

Keeping Smith is just plain old stupid. Another season with him is a total waste.

Rondo is known to give up wide open looks because he knows hes a terrible shooter or just likes to pad his other stats

hes trying to apply that to Smith, who will completely ignore windows he thinks are too tight and thus will settle for something low risk or take a sack to keep his completion percentage in tact.

Basically a product of too much over thinking. They say Rondo is one of the smartest basketball minds but overthinks everything. Same could be said about Smith.

A smart QB doesn't throw an incompletion on 3rd down in the redzone....and then take a ****ing timeout on 4th down.

Hold on a second. Are you serious with this question? I cant believe you are. You are seriously asking if the design of the play called for:

a) Alex to wait over 2.5 seconds in the pocket before he moved right?

and

b) The two receivers on the right side of the field were supposed to run routes were to break back towards the left, the opposite direction of where Smith was supposed to roll?

It is just so funny how Alex fans continue to make excuses for the guy, even if the excuse makes absolutely zero sense like the above one. SMFH.
