Re: Redskins trade for Alex Smith
 

[QUOTE=sdskinsfan2001;1189092]If we add a legit receiver, we get solid play from someone at LG, and we stay healthy i think we'll have a top 10 offense. Add a stud RB and it could be top 5.

Now that's a few things that need to go right but its not out of the realm of possibilities.

[B]I think our redzone offense is greatly upgraded with AS,[/B] if we can get a good RB, we should be punching in a lot more 6's.[/QUOTE]
I think the red zone may be the biggest upgrade with AS. Imagine if AS is able to complete fade passes, We may set scoring records!!!

I'll take even 1 fade pass touchdown lol.

Fully agree. Need that disruptive DL too. Not a great season last year but at the same time not terribly far away. Such is the NFL.

We're going to the playoffs this year. So many good things being said about AS.

Well we need some pieces first but I agree that we will be just fine with 11

Re: Redskins trade for Alex Smith
 

The ability to escape when the pocket breaks down is huge. It keeps you out of 2nd and 13 and gets you into 2nd and 8.

We need to put a running game together to help him. But Cousins needed that too. Hell all QBs need that.

I think Smith makes us slightly better.

Then if we add a good RB and that makes us even more slightly better at minimum, that's a big jump for an already pretty damn good offense.

That doesn't even include plugging in a solid LG and another WR.

If we have a good off season and draft this offense can be loaded.

Re: Redskins trade for Alex Smith
 

The amazing thing about the NFL. No matter how bad you looked, you're never really that far away.

The Eagles were 7-9 in 2016. Don't even need to say what happened the next season.

It really can turn around that quickly. We've got some resources to work with, and we should come back healthier. We'll see what happens.

Exactly, like I had said before, who would have picked PHI??? Nobody did, in fact even "experts" had them 3rd.

Also here is to the "Smith was only good because of Hill" folks.

Conclusion: [I]"In 2017, [Smith] had a 131.4 passer rating on deep passes, tops in the league. Take out every single attempt to Hill, and Smith’s deep-ball passer rating was … 126.6 — or still the best in the league on deep passes. Hill helped, but Smith was a deep-ball success without him." [/I]

Good news for us! Now, let's get that deep threat we need.

That shows that 11 can still sling it around, Kirk was damn good at this too so it's nice to know we won't be losing that aspect

That's why I'm so hesitant to talk about AS. I'm drinking the Skins off-season kool-aid, we haven't even hit FA yet, and I know it's 6 months till the first game ARGHHH!!!!!

If FA goes well then I get a little more excited. If it goes great I will be doing the happy dance and making sure I have Sunday ticket.
