Who here is saying things need to be perfect? Did you not read the post?

Despite an 8-8 team with huge holes, Rodgers put that team on his back and carried them to an NFCCG.
The Packers in no way deserves to go that far, but their QB took control.

The goal is to get one of those QB's, which Alex will never be that's QB, ever.

The same people who blame Smith because he needs everything perfect around him are the same people who blame the Packers because they aren't perfect around Rodgers. It's ironic huh?

That's EXACTLY how Alex plays football. And it's why he's completely different from guys like Wilson and Eli.

He's way more Trent Dilfer than he is Russel Wilson. You would surely agree, right?

In the playoffs he and Russell Wilson are comparable. The only difference is that when Wilson has a shitty game, his defense has been able to pick him up. The chiefs defense hadn't.

Imagine if Alex Smith threw 4 interceptions in a playoff game. That's a sure loss right? Well it wasn't for Wilson.

Alex has to overcome that. Russell Wilson has been able to find ways in his young career to meet those demands even with a 4 INT game.

Alex has not.

You can't possibly be comparing the two QBs. Do we need you to show you all those Pittsburgh gifs again?

I mean damn.

But back to Rodgers, he's had a above average defense the majority of his time in GB and elite weapons on offense basically his whole career there. And yet 1 Superbowl in 2009. The CP notion of a QB that doesn't need a lot of help doesn't exist.

His 4 INT game came against the great Aaron Rodgers and THEY STILL WON.

The year they won the Superbowl he averaged 174 yards, 1 TD and 0 interceptions. You don't think Alex Smith wins the Superbowl too in that situation?

Him and Alex are very similar in the playoffs other than Alex averages more yards and touchdowns and less interceptions per game...

Alex Smith doesn't.

Period

I'm just not willing to be a hypocrite and criticise Alex for his 180 yard 2 TD playoff game while praising another QB for throwing 174 yards a game with 1 TD including a 103 yard 50% completion performance.
