I was there, 50-yard line, straight up with a birds-eye view watching the plays unfold. Time and time again- Alex would give up on the play as a wide open Hill streaked down the field. Why would he keep running to the sidelines instead of going through his progressions? Steelers were not giving that much pressure, he should have stayed in the pocket and thrown the ball away if nobody was open. A QB can throw it out of bounds, right? They don't have to run it out. He has trouble throwing on the run- so basically as soon as he runs-that's it, the play is over. Mahomes can use his feet to extend plays and burn a blitzing defense from Anywhere on the field up to 60 yards deeps. Big difference. Mahomes- roams, while Smitter is a quitter. |

I don't know about that I've seen him keep Brady in the fourth quarter racking up the points to no end. I think he did that to sexy Rexy and the Jets, ran up the score showing no mercy. |

He puts himself at-risk for an injury like he did last year. The point is he quits on plays much too early, many times he dances around back there not looking downfield and takes a costly sack. I have never thought Alex was great against blitzing teams. I am sure his stat on 3rd down against the blitz are pretty bad. Mahomes made them pay when they tried to blitz him. |

Tons of variables here but QB is the most important position in football and has the most influence over W-L record so that's why a QBs W-L record is relevant when judging how good they are.

Completely disagree. A W-L is NEVER relevant when judging how good a QB is. It is THE laziest analysis one can have when judging QBs.

God I'm envisioning a Grbac/Gannon type disaster happening again in the playoffs this year.
Just play Pat in the playoffs Andy. Pat's 50/50 chance is better than Alex's 25% playoff win %. |
