To pay what amounts to a stop gap who turns 34 before next season $23.5 mil a year is just plain dumb. Alex Smith is not the guy who can carry an over matched team to victory. The only upside is he won't make a bunch of mistakes and get his team run off the field. The Redskins will probably be good bets next year as double digit underdogs.

Yeah, good point. He's not a superstar but he does know how to manage an offense and he doesn't make a lot of mistakes. But as you say, you need a well rounded team.
