They'll focus even more on the passing game over the next two weeks. To develop it. And to minimize the wear on the RBs.

I'd like to see us use Kendall Hunter more.

What would Smiths stats be if you added the last two games he played last season to his current record?
Add 2 TDs, 396 yds, 0 ints. Passer rating of 91 and 107.

I think the reason why we haven't seen the screen with Kendall Hunter is because they're saving that for the playoffs. Just my quess. But it was cool to see on MNF and is a very effective tool to slow down the pass rush.

Alex is allergic to throwing TD passes.

He's nearly immune to throwing picks.

I agree. His receivers must help him out with that. What was Smith's allergic reaction to that VD touchdown on MNF...

He is at 16 now, right? I think he'll end up with 18 or possibly 19. I hope he breaks 20.

I like this kind of thinking and I hope this is true. They're saving some plays that they have down and will be totally unpredictable during the playoffs.

He'd go bat s**t crazy if he gets to 20. I hope so too though.

I'd take a few more picks with a few more TD passes.

It's 5 INTs , but should have been 4 on the account that Ginn tipped a perfectly thrown ball for the INT in the Giants game.
Even if he went on to get 2 more INTs that is crazy, Steve Young MVP years, good with regard to taking care of the ball and decision making. And if the stays at 5 all year, that's absolutely an elite number in that area.

What about other passes that the defenders dropped. It works both ways you can't look at what could have been.

Yeah that would be Smith's fault with no one else to blame. With the Ginn drop there nothing Smith can do except try to tackle the defender after the INT. In your example, Smith still has control of the situation that would be his fault. In the Ginn situation Smith did everything right -- not his fault.
