Alex needs to work on this in the offseason. The D line is predicting when hes gonna throw the ball because they know we like to throw our Tree screens. Hes getting alot better but hes still looking kind of mechanical in his throwing motions. Hopefully an offseason with the same regime can correct this.[/left]

Those batted balls were pissing me off!!! Alex needs to work on this in the offseason. The D line is predicting when hes gonna throw the ball because they know we like to throw our Tree screens. Hes getting alot better but hes still looking kind of mechanical in his throwing motions. Hopefully an offseason with the same regime can correct this.[/left]

Thats probably the only record he'll break... oh, and the passes to the side line too.

Scheme does make a difference but most teams don't take out the DL knees as often as you think and for as many times Alex is getting his batted on check downs, he's just as much at fault. He needs to start to shift into a passing lane.

Ive been a Smith fan since we drafted him. How can you not root for him? If he breaks out next season hes gonna turn out to be one hell of a number one pick.

F*k it even if it is the truth, wouldnt you want him to get better just because hes the starting quarterback of our team. You will be eating crow by next seasons end.

Thanks brotha, in your attempt at bein a smart ass, you actually supported. Any other words than an adressing what the line can and cant do is hate.
So thanks for the support Hater.
And once again, no excuse, Philly knows how to correct the lineman from keeping their hands in the air. Dont believe me, Hmmmm, we did lose in philly right. Hmm, there was almost no sacks, correct. Hmm, but maybe we won the philly game and im just makin excuses.
Give me a break.

Too bad Rivers throws the ball away a lot more per attempt. Not only just season, but I'm sure he led the league the last two years. Very close this year with Ryan at the top with Rivers and Garrard right behind him. You don't watch many other teams every week so it's easy to assume he just throws the ball away too much or gets the ball batted down. Guess what though it happens to everyone.

Blah blah you do know McNabb leads the league in batted passes right?!?! I support Smith, but don't make silly statements.
