I think the answer to the latter question is indisputably yes, but I think we've reached a point of diminishing returns with Smith where that job's just going to continue getting harder. The hill will get steeper next year for a Chiefs team with Smith under center, not smaller.
So it's time to change course. You can appreciate what Smith did to help bring the Chiefs back to respectability but you can also acknowledge that the margin for error just isn't big enough with him under center and it's going to get smaller as we advance.

Last 4 SB winners...
Denver Broncos ranked 16th in offensive yards/game
New England Pats ranked 11th in offensive yards/game
Seattle Seahawks ranked 17th in offensive yards/game
Baltimore Ravens ranked 16th in offensive yards/game
If this isn't convincing evidence that Defenses have predominately been the reason teams win the Lombardi...
