I saw this the other day on ESPN and just stumbled on it again. Sorry if it has already been posted. Oh that tricky Andy Reid.
Alex Smith, KC Chiefs, To Run Read-Option Offense - (http://www.footballreportersonline.com/2013/05/16/alex-smith-kc-chiefs-to-run-read-option-offense/)
Alex Smith? This should end well.
Andy should put Dexter McCluster in as QB for this scheme.

Well Smith don't have blazing speed but he definitely can run. I think Smith will do well in pistol formations, all he needs is to run to 1st down marker or more if opportunities present.

Apparently gronk is having back problems as well. Looks like he's another injury prone

Rolando McClain of Baltimore Ravens retires at 23 - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9278165/rolando-mcclain-baltimore-ravens-retires-23)
bizarro world.
Him and Titus Young should get together and hang
At first when I saw that he was doing it to get my life in order I thought it was the dumbest possible thing he could do. Millions of dollars in the bank and nothing but free time is a recipe for disaster.
However then I realized that if he's going into rehab for addiction to alcohol and/or drugs it's actually brilliant. So on that note has anyone seen anything to suggest that this is the case?

The speed is not a problem with Smith, IMO. He lost a step but he still runs with smooth motion, compared to Manning or Brady. In the pistol, I think the motion is vital, compared to speed. If you run smoothly, you will run little faster. Even a split sec matters. Say, your team got into 4 down and 1 yard and you must get to first down or you lose the game. With the pistol, defense have to focus on entire players except for Oline plus QB. Hard to cover everybody in that situation unless you know what is coming.
This is not to say speed isn't important, but in this situation with Smith, I think it's an exception. As long you don't run the plays too often.
