But that game wasn't exactly won because of his dominance.... I agree with you though, it seems this has been a theme since the days of Ramsey/Wuerffel. Whenever the starting qb isn't putting out, fans always seem to think the backup can at least do better. Also keep in mind even if Alex Smith stinks, A. he doesn't turn the ball over, and B. He has a 90 million dollar contract. He has to be given every opportunity to succeed before we give up on him (which we won't, because point A is a huge factor in winning games this year). |

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Colt is 1-3 here averaging 148 yards per start. I don't get all the Alex hate. He didn't get to bring his KC weapons with him and the Redskin receiving core was below average even before the injury bug hit. As it currently stands the Redskin receiving core is in the bottom of the NFL.

When in all reality Kirk had 20 turnovers damn near and as much as I liked the guy he padded most of those stats in late game situations. Yes he's the better passer but who is the better decision maker?

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
He led the league in lost fumbles last year and they seem to come at the most inopportune time.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Redskins are 6-3 and lead the division ,Smith is a good QB on a new team,learning a new system with new players to him anyway. I admit I am surprised at some of the hate towards him.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
I suppose they would rather have Fitzpatrick who can throw for 400 yards and still mange to get a loss.

Well I would ask you two things. For a veteran quarterback who has had an entire camp, pre season, and 9 games at what point does learning the system become executing the system? Also I do not know how much you have watched, but from what you have seen were you actually impressed with his play? |

ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Let me ask the question this way. Was giving up a third round pick, Fuller, and 90 million worth this production? ABSOLUTELY NOT.
Could McCoy have given this offense much more without giving up the above? ABSOLUTELY YES Go ahead and try to argue that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Where Alex Smith goes regular season success follows. Regardless of how he is playing he still has the team at 6-3.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Can't run the ball until someone hands it to you. And who doesn't like being cheered for??
