The absolute definition of NFL mediocracy.

I would say the ceiling for this team is 9 wins and possibly a Wild Card. This is why I can't get overly excited about this season. We're not going to compete for a championship cause we don't have a stud under center. That is the reality of the situation.

It is more than QB , we have no WR1, our RB is 33 and at some point has to break down right? Defense has no pass rush, our sack numbers are bottom 10 in the league. So overall I'd say 9-7 is a good season for this team

All true. But wr's are getting open, Smith just isn't hitting them.

I did see on at least 4 separate occasions.. pressure or just his vision seeming off lately is a concern

From Rich Tandler for all the Alex Smith fans:


2. Alex Smith still sputters

While the Redskins started off well, Smith was erratic through the first half. He was good on 10 of 18 passes for 96 yards and two touchdowns. Smith certainly had his good moments, hitting receivers for some key first downs during the Redskins first-half scoring drives. He also had some passes that were way off the mark, even when he apparently had time to throw. Late in the first half the Redskins got good field position after a punt from deep in Panthers territory. But after an intentional grounding flag the Redskins were moved out of field goal range.

Smith continued to flounder in the second half. After the Redskins moved into Carolina territory with their first possession of the third quarter, he threw third-and fourth-down passes late and inaccurate. He did hit a few passes in the drive that sealed thegame for Washington but overall his day was spotty.
