Chiefs Chiefs Offseason Planet Evaluation: Alex Smith - Page 3

**Rain Man** · 01-18-2018, 07:10 PM

Even the MVP must get a grade card. Let the world know what you think.

Alex played in 15 games with 15 starts this season (sitting out one game to watch the Ghost of Christmas Future). He completed 341 passes at a 67.5% completion rate, for 4,402 yards and 8.0 yards per attempt. He threw 26 touchdown passes and 5 interceptions. His quarterback rating was 104.7.

Atop that, he ran for 355 yards and 1 TD, at 5.9 yards per rush.

And 3 gave him an F. A perfect image of the unreasonable extremes.

I think that the most ignorant answer was by the 6 morons that said they would trade him for a bottle of Pibb. That's just stupid. We can get way more than that. Taking nothing just to have him off the team is about as dumb of a take as I've seen on here.

BYE ALEX

GayFrogs · 01-18-2018, 09:22 PM

Played well except when it mattered the most. GTFO

ThaVirus · 01-18-2018, 10:27 PM

He's been the guy for five seasons now and we've got exactly jack and shit to show for it. In that time we've had elite defenses, elite running backs, an elite tight end, an elite deep threat WR, elite special teams and a couple pretty damned good OLs. There are no more excuses. He just doesn't have what it's takes to get the job done.

Next man up.

**The Franchise** · 01-18-2018, 10:33 PM

He was a B. His ceiling is a B. Get the **** off the team.

RunKC · 01-18-2018, 10:55 PM

A+

Had his best year as a pro, had the highest QBR in the league and another pro bowl. We wanted him to pad that resume for trade value and he couldn’t have done that any better.

Great job Alex!

F. Ultimate goal not achieved. Failure is not an option. Smith has been a miserable failure since arriving here. Only thing that matters is winning SB.

So I guess by that logic that you give an F to 31 quarterbacks every year? Does Jared Goff get an F? His team went home short of the goal. How about Drew Brees? Yeah, he has a ring. But not this year. His was a long time ago. Better give him an F too.

Yep and Led the league in total yards per game.

Get OFF the TEAM you CUCK.

Somebody mad

Enjoy the off-season

Coochie liquor · 01-19-2018, 07:01 AM

I gave him an A, greatly exceeded my expectation, he’s stable, want him off the team, traded for a mid 2nd rounder, and I will always choose the great pyramid over the Great Wall!

To be fair, the last playoff game win @ Arrowhead was '93 vs Steelers right? KC has played what ... 6 home games since the 1993 playoffs?

Montana has that last home win vs PIT, the next QBs to start in the playoffs at home... Bono, Grbac, Green, Cassel...

So, while your statement is true - Smith was the first to start in 2 home playoff games as well. And, he did break the losing curse for KC.

KC only has 2 home playoff games as a franchise, right - DeBerg and Montana. So, you're giving Alex an F for not doubling that total... just seems weird.

**notorious** · 01-19-2018, 07:23 AM

Alex is the student that gets straight-A’s because he is book-smart and studies his ass off.

He becomes the dumbest kid in class when you ask him a question that requires reasoning and critical thinking on the fly.

No, he didn't.

The defense did that.

It's not weird. This team was laid out before him on a silver platter.

He wasted one of the best opportunities in franchise history.

Forget the two home playoff games he blew. WE HAD A TOP 5 DEFENSE AND RUSHING ATTACK AND HE DIDN'T EVEN MAKE THE PLAYOFFS ONE YEAR.
