We always see Alex learning a new system, and now doing it with all new teammates. Others in the same system with familiar chemistry in receivers can look a bit different, yeah.

Alex did very well. His timing on short routes was excellent .

Charles should have a big year with Alex

Uhm... dude...

for one thing, now it seems normal to compare Alex to a HOF quarterback? lolz

secondly, you must have heard by now that Broncos OC Mike McCoy implemented as much familiarity of Peyton's former offense as possible to coddle him, right?

This will the the only year i root for the Chiefs. Only because i want the Niners to get a 2nd round pick instead of a 3rd round pick.

Peyton took the PEYTON OFFENSE with him to Denver. When you play in the same system for a decade and your new team basically hands you the keys to the car and says "we'll run what you want" then yea, the transition is pretty smooth.

Looking more like a non-story. KC was probably looking at finding a role for A.J. Jenkins on the return teams... Dexter was likely not amused by this, and his words got twisted into far more than it was.. all so some jackarse could get lots of hits on his twitter account.

The difference is Peyton has proven that he is basically an OC, can you imagine a coach giving Smith and about 99% of the NFL QBs the same freedom?

It would be a disaster with Smith or anyone not named Peyton

Now imagine what any capable QB could do being in the same competent offensive scheme for many years. Now that's comfort!

Actually, Johnson gave Smith the reigns the last half of 2010 and he did very well (after Jimmy Raye was fired). That year his QB rating grew each month of the season:

September--66
October--83
December--96 (no November games:)
January--107

Smith is known to be a very smart guy who can impart the game plan to his teammates.

Either way, the tired excuse of Alex Smith is getting just that, tired.

Alex is still in a WCO, which shouldn't take him much time to adjust to.
Alex went from Jimmy Ray's offense to the WCO with Harbuagh and had immediate "success".
Alex also has weapons that compliment his playing style.
He also has a better #1 WR.

What about QB's like Luck, RG3, Kaep, Wilson, and others who have had equal to or greater success in new systems? Alex is now a veteran QB who should be able to quickly apply things as he has seen different things. Save the excuses. He is an up-and-down QB that plays super safe football. Last year, his high's were very high and his lows were very low.

It's "tired", and yet here you are... in an Alex/KC thread to battle the "tired excuses" of a player gone from SF.

... gotta love it! Get that blood transfusion, yo. The Alex hate is coursing through your veins and must be purged!

Wow you really stumped him there.."Yet you are here"

Can you really give a better answer to why you always give excuses for AS since he is has better percentages then the top pro bowlers of the league ?
