Originally posted by znk916:IT ISN'T ABOUT ALEX. (sorry for yelling) Bill Walsh won more than a few games with Steve DeBerg, Jeff Kemp and Bill Musgrave. Anybody ever heard of those guys? ANYBODY? DeBerg did go on to have a long if undistinguished career but it was based in large part on the tutelage he received from Walsh.

Lowell Cohn is all over this...hope he keeps the heat up because Raye has to go, we have Mike Johnson waiting in the wings, no reason to hold off any longer
we're stuck with Alex for at least the rest of this season, have to try and make it work. Whether he's calling out Raye on purpose or not, as the saying goes....where there's smoke there's fire.

It probably doesn't matter too much if the play calls come in fast or slow when the QB can't hit the broadside of a barn.

I don't think Smith was "calling anyone" out. Typical Cohn yellow journalism.

You guys are f**king pissing me off. There were no questions about Smith's accuracy when he went 9/10 to open the game.

Alex Smith is the problem, not the headsets, not the play calling.
as much as some here like to get on Raye and the players....he did call plays that could've been potential TDs and the players did their job and got open.
that Morgan Pass that was too high could've been placed elsewhere...
that Norris pass could've been elsewhere....I know that some here don't like us going to Norris...but the play worked, he was open for a TD.
that Ginn pass could've been elsewhere.... Ginn burnt his man... Raye drew up a play that worked and was a potential TD...but Alex missed his pass once again.
The pass to Norris. I doubt he and Smith worked on that during training camp, maybe once if at all. We have other more capable options for that play. It was the wrong call by the OC. One of many...
and looking back at the norris throw it wasnt horrible if norris ran foward instead of stopping and back peadling for it he wouldve been hit in a stride
LOL, some people will stop at nothing to defend the bum.
He f**ked up on that play and many others today. Deal with it.
im not defensing he shouldve bulleted it instead of lobbed it but the throw itself wasnt bad it was a horrible decision but the throw wasnt that bad
Had they worked on it in training camp, the coaches would have instructed Norris to NOT TURN HIS BACK to the goal line, and to continue running towards the end zone as the ball would come to him. Right play, wrong player. (Westbrook)

Actually right now I'm questioning his mental toughness. As you both said he started very well, but as soon as things started going the other way he was completely rattled (Barrows noticed that too).
That's NOT a good sign.

Then his old ass needs to be on the sideline, when he doesn't know what to do in a tight situation, he panics and calls a play for Norris.
