You are a ****ing colossal idiot homer trufan. Alex is garbage and will revert back to form here. Just like cassel did, but ignore the fact that cassels only good year was against the easiest schedule in a decade and got raped against any other playoff teams.

Ignore the fact that besides their numbers being identical but alex throwing for less 300 yard games then limpdickarm cassel that alex only appeared to get better when they built an allstar team around him on both sides.

Good qbs elevate those around them. Not a ****ing team elevating the qb to look like a game manager.

Going to be so enjoyable watching some of you idiots in disbelief when we win 7 or less games this year ask why we keep losing. You better pray for charles and hali to have mvp like years.

Yup. We continue to make the same signings and drafting that we have in the 90's. We continue to desire playing some outdated brand of football. Retread QBs and taking lineman with 1st round picks. How anyone can sit back and say, well let's just give this regime a chance even though they are using the same failed formula for 20 years is beyond me? Nothing they are doing tells me this team is serious about winning a Superbowl, or even one measly playoff game.

Whenever I talk about this everyone always brings up his 7.9 ypa.

Counter with his 24th ranked 11.4 YPC, which makes Cassel and Damon Huard look like gunslingers.

It's hard to "deal with it" when we have seen this dog and pony show before. Several times. We keep hoping this time will be different but it never is.

With the exception of my complete lack of faith in Alex Smith, I am done complaining about the franchise for now. I will say that Alex is going to have to seriously impress me this year to have any chance of winning me over. BUT, I support the franchise and hope they prove me wrong and win a bunch of games. My prediction for the season still stands though and that is not a negative thing, just my honest opinion of where the team is right now. Still an improvement over last year.

Same as it ever was.

I know. You get the feeling you have seen this movie before.
Just like I've been saying the whole thread.....It's not all rainbows and roses. However, why spend all of your time bitching and moaning about something that you can't change.

Yep, my take too. In their opinion, there was no QOTF to build an NFL team around. So, they took more of a win now approach.

It's tough because we had the number one pick in the draft and there was no QB. And since we're the Chiefs it stings even more. That pretty much took the shine off of anything else good that could happen. However I'm feeling optimistic at this point. I feel pretty confident that this team will not come out and look like the Keystone Cops the first two weeks of the season.

Boy I'm getting tired of that "no QB" myth.

You make 2 arguments that were among the staples of the Alexsexuals over the entire Harbaugh era. For the trifecta, don't forget to cite the 2011 Saints Divisional game.

Your first argument is that Alex is accurate passing over 20 yards.

Alex is efficient passing over 20 yards. Don't mistake efficiency for accuracy. Drew Brees is accurate over 20 yards. Aaron Rodgers is accurate over 20 yards. Alex Smith is efficient over 20 yards.

Alex Smith is efficient over 20 yards because Alex Smith is selective over 20 yards. He generally won't throw the ball over 20 yards unless his intended receiver is wide open with Defenders playing well off him.

If a QB throws one pass in his career and it is caught over 20 yards away, he has a career efficiency of 100% completion ratio over 20 yards. That says nothing about how accurate he is. Mabye the receiver had to leap or slide for the ball. Efficiency is not accuracy.

Your second argument is from the vid, spouting QBR and again completion %. QBR is nice and accounts for Alex's exceptional ball security of late, which should be a huge asset toward Chiefs wins. Turnover ratio is the #1 indicator of wins and losses, and Alex doesn't turn it over. No wonder Reid likes that about him.

But again your argument is all about efficiency. What about production? What about yards per game? What about TDs per game? What about sustaining drives passing? 3rd down conversions? Red zone scores?

QBR takes some of that into account, better than the traditional passer rating does, but still rewards efficiency over production.

Yes, Alex is really efficient. Now if he was productive, if he completed 30 passes a game, if he could post 4,000 yards in a season, then his efficiency would be a wonderful asset. Maybe Andy Reid will get that from him.

Meanwhile, your argument is one we heard for 2 years under Harbaugh from the Alexsexuals on the 49er forum. They all wanted to proclaim his lofty efficiency but then make nothing but Alexcuses over his lack of production.

It is amazing reading the polls for everything. You would think reading CP all these years that everyone was Negative Nancies and thought the end of the world was here. Then you realize it is a just a vocal miniority that rule the roost here. They aren't the voice of the Chiefs fanbase but of CP. It drives them crazy that 90-95% of the fanbase are "True Fans". Funny I must say.

Of course they are. In a any social paradigm, the masses are idiots. "A person is smart. People are stupid".

I don't think the consistent naysayers are stupid or idiots. For the most part, they have legitimate opinions and reasons for their opinions.

But, we just don't need to hear that same opinion in every thread.
