Sounds like you are concluding that poor line play stalled a number of drives and poor timing and connection between A. Smith and his receivers. Improvement on both of these points would help the offense?
Exactly what I been sayin all along. Nice to see it broken down tho.
What really surprised me about that game tho, what that Alex trusted the Line to start off with 3 hard counts. That could have bitten us in the ass had our guys been too tentative or even had they been too wound up. As much as I believe Harris got a bad rap, he probably would have coughed up a penalty or two in that situation.
Good job with the break down.

well, remember this is JUST ONE GAME so far, but this one kind of confirmed what most of us thought already. bad OL play, alex not playing the way we want him to which is like a QB who is in complete control out there. Whether or not he can become that guy with more time in the same system... i guess we'll find that out in about 6 mos.
THE ONE THING ABOUT THE HARD COUNTS... is that theoretically that should help the OL. it makes the DL hesitate just that additional split second since they got chewed out for getting 3 penalties on the opening drive. that can get in their head just a tiny bit, and that slight delay, should give the OL an extra little advantage.

I am not one of those who has been on here beating a drum for Alex. That being said I now have a middle of the road opinion on Alex and am willing to give him one more year before giving up on him. I agree with you. Based on the account of this game at least, Alex seems to make the proper reads most of the time. I was struck by the amount of times I read so and so comes free(pass rush) on Alex Smith. He offense seemed to do an adequate job on 3rd and short to 3rd and managable, and yes, your point about the connection between Alex and the recivers. Hopefully a full offseason as the number one QB and operating under the same system and coordinator will erase many of those circumstances. I think this account is cause optimisim concerning Alex, only time will tell.

Out of the 11 games played, in 7 of them, Smith was sacked, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0, 1, and 1 times.
I wouldn't exactly call that poor blocking.
As for the miscommunication/timing: there's a fine line between NFL inaccuracy and lack of chemistry.
However, I will give Smith the benefit of the doubt on the chemistry aspect. As far as the sacks, our OL played much better than some think.
