How many games will the Chiefs win PYMWYMI

Alex is playing very good, but so is the whole team. Defense and special teams Also out scored the other team.

That was the formula for the 2011-2012 49ers Good but not spectacular Qb Play. Defense straight Ballling and the Special Teams winning the Field position battle and also making plays.

4 more to go

Damn

600 yards rushing too.

His yards per game have gone up ever game from week 1 to week 4. I think there is a strong chance he ends up with over 4000 yards passing if he stays healthy.

Actually, Smith's number went up when Raye was fired and Mike Johnson took over. Those last 5 games his rating was 91, IIRC. Then Sing was fired and Harbaugh came in. JH certainly helped Smith but it was not all Harbaugh. Smith had already turned the corner in those last 5 games under Sing/Johnson.

Yes, I corrected myself...but too late! LOL! The internet waits for no man...or mental lapse.

The 2013 Chiefs ARE the 2011 Niners. Close to identical in many ways. Love watching them play smart, ball-control football. I really miss that here.

Also gotta love that Alex has 30 carries for 151 while super-athlete Kaepernick has 26 for 140.

If Alex plays a full season (a big if, considering the weakness of his OL), I'll be surprised if he doesn't throw for 4000 yards. He'd already be over that pace if not for all the drops and mental errors by his receivers, but I expect them and their chemistry with Alex to improve a lot as the season goes on. Same for the OL.

Time to break out the post-"We Want Carr" stats again:

2010: 98/168 (58.33 completion%), 1264 yards (7.52 ypa), 10 TD/2 INT, 97 QB rating, 3-1 record

2011 + playoffs: 309/513 (60.23%), 3639 yards (7.09 ypa), 22 TD/5 INT, 92 QB rating, 14-4 record

2012: 153/218 (70.18%), 1737 yards (7.97 ypa), 13 TD/5 INT, 104.1 QB rating, 6-2 record

2013: 88/146 (60.27%), 957 yards (6.56 ypa), 7 TD/2 INT, 89.9 QB rating, 4-0 record

total: 648/1045 (62.01%), 7597 yards (7.27 ypa), 52 TD/14 INT, 95.1 QB rating, 27-7 record

Solid QB play and sustaining drives helps your defence. We saw it when our offence was not able to get anything going,our defence ultimately flattered.

Alex is what he is,solid, efficient, not flashy, makes solid plays and gets his team in a position to win.

Trent should've asked for a 1st rounder.

It could be because the 49ers thought that they needed to accommodate Smith to a certain degree, or it also could be that Baalke bought into the "game manager" thinking as well. For that a second- and a third-round picks would appear to be quite a lot.

That's a very good TD to Int ratio but the rest is pedestrian. Wins are obviously the most important though.

Correct--28 TDs to 8 INTs isn't pedestiran. The rest is typical WCO numbers for a QB. But you are most correct about wins...they trump everything.

Edit: The WCO relies on limiting turn overs. Walsh considered a short pass to be just as reliable as a hand-off so QBs will tend to have fewer YPA.
