Article on Smith in the playoffs

Because this place doesn't have enough Alex Smith threads already, right?

I know that there are an abundance of threads on Alex Smith. But Damn it, I'm excited as can be right now and I am enjoying articles like this one. Haters can !

Alex Smith: It’s time to shut down the doubters
by Nick Floyd31 minutes agoFollow @TheFloydDude

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith has carried the moniker of “game manager” around for his entire career. This weekend it’s time to stop the doubters.

When the Kansas City Chiefs were going through the transition with the addition of head coach Andy Reid and general manager John Dorsey, there was only one quarterback Reid wanted; Alex Smith. Smith had carried the infamous draft bust label around for the first part of his career, being the number one overall pick. It was not until Smith went down with a concussion and a young Colin Kaepernick took over that his time in San Francisco was coming to a close.

Since Alex has joined the Chiefs the combination of Smith and Andy Reid has led the team to four winning seasons; and three of the four saw wins in double digits. Smith’s numbers also show that he has been successful with KC. Completing 64.4 percent of his passes, he has thrown for 13,566 yards, with 76 touchdowns to 28 interceptions with a quarterback rate of 92.27. Those numbers seem a little more impressive for a man called a “game manager”.

Smith is a good quarterback. Is he flashy? Not even, but here is the thing: Alex Smith wins games. More importantly, Smith turns it on during the post season. In the five playoff games Smith has started in he completes 60.4 percent of his passes, has thrown for 1,309 yards, with 11 touchdowns and only one interception. Those numbers give him a rating of 99.1 in the postseason, and good seven points better than his regular season average.

Take the playoff game in Indianapolis against Andrew Luck’s Colts. Smith went off for 378 yards four touchdowns and added 57 yards rushing. Yes, the Chiefs would eventually blow one of the biggest leads in playoff history to lose, but you can’t blame Smith; he had a great game. The opposite can be said about the game last year against New England. Smith only managed a 58 percent completion rate for 246 yards and only one touchdown; his worst game in the playoffs.

Now is finally the time for Alex Smith to ditch the negative nickname that has followed him, and there is no better opponent than the Pittsburgh Steelers for him to do that.

I still don't pin that Indy loss on Alex alone. I don't think many do, if they're honest.

Mark Sanchez has similar numbers in the playoffs as well, with more wins. Just saying.

I like that he can make a play with his legs. You just look at his passing stat and you its not all that impressive. Then you add 5 rushing TDs and he looks a hell of a lot better.

Smith can actually sling it. But slinging it isn't part of reidtards offense.

QB 1: (14 games)

60.6 comp %
3283 yards
16 TDs
9 INT
83.6 QB rating
19 sacks

QB 2 (15 games)

67.1 comp %
3502 yards
15 TD
8 INT
91.2 QB rating
28 sacks



QB 1 is Joe Montana's stats in 1994, and QB 2 is Smith.

Am I excited for this playoff game? You're damn right.

I'm not worried about Smith, I'm worried about stopping the run, especially if its the ice bowl.

This sounded like bullshit so I looked it up and yea.....

Sanchez has played in 1 more game than Smith, 6 vs 5.

Sanchez despite playing in 1 more game has

155 yards less passing
2 fewer TD passes
2 more INT's
180 yards less rushing
1 less rushing TD

Other than that yea they are the same.
