Alex Smith drives fans insane. He does not care about stats, and he certainly leaves some big plays on the table because he checks the ball down within a second or two.
On the flip side, Smith wins. And wins. And wins. You always feel like Smith is holding the team back and lifting them up all at the exact same time. On Sunday, Smith started out playing brutal football, but made the big plays down the stretch to propel the Kansas City Chiefs to a fifth consecutive win.
After the game, Smith was asked about his feelings on the idea that he’s a game manager.
