Chiefs It's time to move on from Alex Smith. - Page 2

He wasn't even the main reason we lost. We're just never gonna win a Super Bowl with him. It's time.

The two best QBs in the AFC are left to play for the right to play in the Super Bowl. Not shocking.

Every team that has won their playoff matchup has had the better QB. Unless you have an elite defense the better QB is more often than not gonna win the matchup. It's not rocket science.

Time to draft one high. Finally.

The Chiefs just lost a playoff game where they scored 2 touchdowns and their opponent scored 0. If we had even an average offense we win this game going away. Don't wanna hear about the defense. They did their job.

definitely shouldnt be overlooked.

our offensive line is shit. put bell behind this line and he averages 75yds a game if hes lucky.

ware is a solid back, but id definitely look at drafting one higher up if theres no qb available.

Red Dawg · 01-15-2017, 10:48 PM

We lost because Smith is not an NFL darling. They want Brady and Ben so they call holding when we tie the game. Plain and simple.

There were far more reasons why the Chiefs lost tonight than Alex Smith.

Doesn't help that Fisher was getting beat all night by Grandpa Harrison

hitchief · 01-15-2017, 10:50 PM

hate makes for blind crybabies and stupid posters.

Its so easy to say he should have hit Hill sprinting open but then if you want to be accurate you'd have to watch the whole play from above so you could see the progression and the protection.

Alex didn't have all dam day like Ben had. He had maybe two reads per pass attempt and then he was either hit or running.

Stupid ass bitch's in here crying all the time makes me sick

Smith wasn't the reason we lost, but didn't do enough to win. Same story as always. He should be our QB in 2017, but you have to plan for the next year. He shouldn't be extended.

And more than once I counted 5 times I saw him with at least 3 steps on a defender and no throw.

well put. he's not bad enough to lose games but he really isnt good enough to will us to wins either. hell show flashes of both good and bad bit in the end hes just ok.

cant win with a qb like that in this league. just cant.

Uh, no. You do realize that Pitt had one of the top defenses in the league in the second half of the season right? They also had 38 sacks on the season and finished top 10 in scoring defense, etc. It's not a cakewalk against the Steelers.

Right, with a safety on top and a pass rusher bearing down on Smith. That would have gone well right? Just chuck it up into double coverage while getting hit.

The one play you could make an argument for was the one where they highlighted Hill specifically, but even on that play Smith was already rolling right early due to pressure well before Hill broke open.
