Alex Smith is 75-35-1 since the start of 2011 with a 94 rating.

  • He's had bad luck in the playoffs but he's a 97 rated playoff QB with 14 TDs to 2 picks.
  • He missed out on a Super Bowl only because Kyle bleepin Williams muffed 2 punts.

If the one hit is an entire decade then you may be on to something.

 

Foles is also working on hit number 4. 

  • 2013
  • 2017
  • 2018
  • Now?
  • FYI - He was also a 100+ rating backup in 2 games in KC back with Andy.
  • I'm pretty sure thinking about the 2015 Rams actually causes brain damage in lazy football fans.

 

Vick was a stud in Atlanta for about 4 seasons and then had his 2010 in Philly.

  • 5 hit wonder?
  • Those 2 playoff wins in Atlanta sure were big hits at the time.

Mcnabb was outstanding in 2001-2004 and had his moments through 2010.

 

Are we talking about 3 games from AJ Feeley, 2 games from Kevin Kolb, and one Sunday Night game with Koy Detmer? 

 

Smith was really, really bad in that NFC Championship game. Williams doesn’t muff that punt and it’s probably another 3 and out. Idk why they abandoned the run in the 2nd half.

But yeah, his inability to complete passes to his receivers was a major indictment of his ability to be a true franchise QB

True Franchise QB in this bizarre case means about 25 QBs in the history of the league with that definition

  • Bradshaw = Yes 
  • Stabler = No 

Flacco wins 72 games in 7 years, 10 playoff games, and a Super Bowl with an 11 TDs and 0 picks Lombardi and he does not fit some idea of a franchise QB?

Its funny stuff for a league with 32 teams.

 

Was Philip Rivers a true franchise QB?

Smith went head to head with him for 5 years and kicked his butt.

  • 8-2 head to head
  • better record
  • better passer rating

Difference between Flacco and Smith is that one guy, at least for a few games at a time, has shown an ability to put a team on his back and be THE biggest reason for their success.

Smith put up inflated WCO stats on absolutely stacked, well-coached teams for a few years, but in the biggest game of his life he laid an egg.

Rivers never won a big game and that’s a black mark on his resume, but he’s just a way better QB than Smith.

Case Keenum - Threw for 3,500 yards & 22 TD while leading the Vikings to a 11-3 record as a starter and to an NFC championship game appearance. | Never had another good season. 

Derek Anderson - Threw for 3,700 yards & 29 TD while leading the Browns to a 10-5 record as a starter. | Never had another good season.

Tyrod Taylor. That one good year in buffalo and nothing since. He’s terrible. 

One good year? He had three good years in buffalo. Comes to Cleveland and gets stuck in the Haley Hue power struggle and then gets hurt. Gets hurt by the team doctors And loses his starting job again ready
