NFL 2015 Week 3 |OT| - A Fraud Finds His League

Is it by scheme or is it just Alex refusing to throw to WRs?

It can't be just the scheme. I think he's incapable of throwing to WRs. He checks out of every route to the WRs and goes to Kelce or Charles. I think he's too afraid of throwing to WRs.

Reid didn't have a problem with WRs in his offense in Philadelphia.

Alex Smith was broken by his time in SF. He makes the best of what he has left but if he even thinks about throwing it downfield his body thinks its gonna get creamed so he just throws it to the closest target.

If you are going to have a mediocre QB, at least have one like Fatt Matt or Flacco who can gun it deep when your team inevitably falls behind (as teams with shit QBs tend to do). I have no idea what the point of Alex Smith is. Might as well just bring in Tebow if all you're gonna do is glorified shovel passes to the RBs.

Since 2009 Smith has a higher than all those. The terribad rookie and injured years are way less than what he'd been the 2nd half of his career.

Texans broke David Carr. Rams probably broke Bradford.
