Reid isn't without his faults. He's ignored Jamaal to the point where I'm ready to throw shit, blown timeouts in situations that a 15+ year veteran has no business doing so, and called some questionable plays in crucial drives.. But he's done a fantastic job of maximizing this team's potential. As far as talent is concerned, we've basically got Jamaal, Kelce, Houston and Poe and a bunch of slap sticks, and yet we come to play every week. And we all wish he would feed Jamaal more but his passing plays are getting guys open. If Alex would be a mor effective passer, we would hardly notice that Jamaal isn't getting work. Instead, Alex takes the easy checkdown or eats a sack on 80% of the plays we run so we pine for Charles.. |

Reid is the kind of coach you'd want to help build up a franchise. Eventually, we'll need to move on. |

The more I read, the more I think Alex smith hinders the offense. I know, we've all been told etc.
But Reids offense is getting guys open. |

His injury "issues" are way overblown. The guy averaged 5 YPC this season mostly getting banged up the middle behind an offensive line that opened up no holes. I like Knile but he's no savior. He averaged less than 4 YPC behind the same line as Jamaal. If you take away, say, 50 carries from Jamaal and give them to Knile you're looking at a huge difference in offensive production. Even if that's what you believe, we should be smart about how he's used. If he's averaging 5+ YPC and looking good (SF game comes to mind immediately) then he needs to be fed. Then you can afford to take a few carries away from him in another game in which he's less effective. |

I don't think the injury issues are overblown. I think the dude was pretty banged up from day 1 this year.

So was Marshawn Lynch.. And Adrian Peterson is always dealing with nagging injuries. Gio Bernard missed time this year. CJ Spiller. Fred Jackson. The Broncos went through like 5 RBs. Ryan Mathews and Danny Woodhead. Leveon Bell got hurt, albeit late. That's the nature of the beast. |

Here Are 13 Plays Alex Smith Wants Back By Sam Millinger
That's why I'm saying Jamaal should be the last back we pay out big money to.
Find yourself a QB, draft RBs in rounds 2-6, use the shit out of them, then move on before they command a big payday. Once you get the right QB, RB won't matter much. |

It is, and that's why they limited his carries

Obviously I don't have all the answers, but it seems to me, if they were truly looking to keep him fresh and uninjured, they'd have limited his snaps as well. They never did that, though. He came back from a high ankle sprain in 1 week. That's a 4-6 week injury. That doesn't scream "trying to keep a guy healthy" to me. |
