Smith completed 23 of 36 passes for 199 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing five times for 35 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Smith and the Kansas City offense were once again stuck in low gear during the first half, as he threw for just 41 yards while entering the break with a 13-3 deficit. It wasn't until the opening drive of the second half that the team finally scored its first touchdown since the first drive of the second half in Week 9. Smith ended that drought with a screen pass to Albert Wilson, who took the ball 19 yards to the house. Unfortunately for the struggling veteran, he threw an interception to seal the win for Buffalo after driving his team to the opposing 36-yard line with 1:25 to play. Smith's touchdown-to-interception ratio over the past three games is an ugly 3:4 after he started with a 16:0 mark in the first eight weeks.

Smith completed 27 of 40 passes for 230 yards whie throwing two interceptions without a touchdown, and added 27 yards on five carries in Sunday's 12-9 overtime loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Smith came into this one with an 18:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio, and coach Andy Reid was 16-2 coming out of a bye week before this shocking defeat, so few could have foreseen this clunker coming. The veteran quarterback's fourth-quarter interception just before the two-minute warning set the Giants up in field-goal range with the game tied 6-6. He appeared to throw a game-ending interception while trailing 9-6 on the next drive, but a defensive pass interference penalty erased that mistake and allowed Kansas City to force overtime. Smith's finished with exactly one passing touchdown and no interceptions in each of his four home appearances, so don't expect a world-beating performance at Arrowhead Stadium against the Bills next week.

Smith completed 25 of 34 pass attempts for 263 yards, two touchdowns and one interception Sunday against the Cowboys. He also carried five times for 19 yards in the 28-17 loss.
EDGE Analysis
Smith struggled in the early stages, but he got the ball rolling with a fortuitous 56-yard touchdown connection with Tyreek Hill just before the half. He hit Travis Kelce for a two-yard score in the third quarter to take a brief lead, but was forced to play from behind for most of the half and threw his first interception of the season as he tried to put his team in position to score in the fourth quarter. It's been a terrific start tot he season for Smith, who owns a sterling 18:1 TD:INT through nine games. He will rest during the upcoming bye before taking on a struggling Giants team in Week 11.

Smith completed 14 of 31 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 29-19 win over the Broncos. He also rushed four times for 33 yards and lost a fumble.
EDGE Analysis
Smith's matchup against a stout Denver defense always figured to make matters difficult, and although his passing numbers overall marked his worst performance of this season, Smith still did enough to secure a victory. Not only that, but he continued his immaculate eight-game streak without an interception to start this season. Although Smith did turn the ball over via fumble, Smith's 33 rushing yards were his second most of the campaign. All in all, it wasn't a great performance from Smith, but he once again got the job done.

Smith completed 25 of 36 passes for 342 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in Thursday's 31-30 loss to the Raiders. He netted zero yards on his sole rush and fumbled once but recovered.
EDGE Analysis
For the fourth time this season, Smith displayed what had previously been a rare flair for prolific passing. The veteran eclipsed the 300-yard mark for the third time in 2017 while also compiling his fourth multi-touchdown game of the campaign. The former No. 1 overall pick connected with a whopping nine different pass catchers on the night and once again displayed excellent chemistry with Tyreek Hill (six receptions, 125 yards, one touchdown). Smith also encouragingly had some synergy with second-year wideout Demarcus Robinson (five catches, 69 yards), and his trio of scores went to Hill, Travis Kelce and Albert Wilson, the latter a game-long 63-yarder midway through the third quarter. Despite the disappointing team outcome, Smith's performance was a bright spot for the Chiefs and fantasy owners, and he now sports a sparkling 15:0 TD:INT ratio just one game shy of the midway point of Kansas City's season. He'll look to stay hot in a very tough matchup against the Broncos in a Week 8 showdown on Monday Night Football.

Smith completed 19 of 34 pass attempts for 246 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 19-13 loss to the Steelers. He added 13 yards on four carries.
EDGE Analysis
Smith endured a miserable first half in which he was pressured early and often, resulting in just six yards of offense for his unit. He made some effective adjustments during the intermission, however, and wound up with a respectable statistical line while getting his team back into the game. Smith notably continued his turnover-free style of play in this one, improving his TD:INT to a sparkling 12:0 through the season's first six weeks. The veteran is playing as well as any signal caller in the NFL at the moment and will look to put together a more complete performance Thursday agianst the Raiders.

Smith completed 29 of 37 passes for 324 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 42-34 victory over the Texans. He added 19 rushing yards on five carries.
EDGE Analysis
Through five games, Smith has now completed a surgical 76.6 percent of his passes for an impressive 1,391 yards, 11 touchdowns and zero interceptions. He simply appears to be a different quarterback compared to what we've seen in year's past, where the main difference this season seems to be his newfound willingness to take more chances downfield, considering Smith's current 8.8 YPA clip easily represents a career high. If he continues to play so efficiently, it wouldn't be surprising to see him warrant MVP consideration when all's said and done. However, a stiff matchup awaits in Week 6, when Smith and Co. will host a Steelers defense that's allowed a league-best 5.2 yards per pass attempt in 2017.

Smith completed 27 of 37 passes for 293 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 29-20 win over the Redskins. He also rushed seven times for 56 yards and another score.
EDGE Analysis
Smith put together another highly efficient display, preserving Kansas City's perfect record through four weeks. When factoring in his rushing output, which was Smith's highest since Week 17 of the 2015 campaign, Smith was just a hair shy of 350 total yards. Not only that, but with two more touchdowns, Smith has now contributed nine scores without throwing an interception thus far. On the back of that stellar performance, Smith and the Chiefs will now prepare for their matchup against the Texans on Sunday night.

Smith completed 16 of 21 pass attempts for 155 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Chargers. He added nine yards on a pair of carries.
EDGE Analysis
Smith wasn't asked to carry a huge load as the running attack dominated once again, but he managed to produce a decent fantasy outing with touchdown strikes to Tyreek Hill and Albert Wilson. The veteran has been in control during the first three weeks of the season, averaging 258 passing yards per game with seven touchdowns compared to zero turnovers. Smith is thriving with a supporting cast that features several elite options, and he will look to keep it rolling next week against the Redskins.

Smith completed 21 of 28 passes for 251 yards and a score and added 21 yards on the ground in Sunday's 27-20 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't the aerial bombardment Smith opened the season with against New England, but he kept Kansas City in it and got the job done late after a key Eagles interception led to a 15-yard touchdown pass from Smith to Travis Kelce. After trading up in the first round for Patrick Mahomes back in April, the question this season has been if and when Mahomes will take over for Kansas City this season. Though not as impressive on Sunday as he was opening night, it's hard to see the team supplanting Smith while he is playing well and the team is winning.
