In Crabs defense, his one catch and run was a beauty. He effortlessly snatched the pass without breaking stride and then put together a nice sequence of moves to get a nice chunk of extra yardage. Smith just didn't throw his way that much.

He was thrown to two other times, one was a slip and a legit drop, the other time it was tipped and intercepted well before it could get to him.

wow if 22 didn't finally take him down that would've been x3 miss tackles on 1 play

crabs job is to be fully prepared on every play he's an option regardless if it's too high or too much velocity. if anything protect the damn ball. given his college history and draft status expectations are nothing less. he seems to have some kind of ego thing but if he can get his head into this team watch out.

Alex Smith is not a WR friendly QB. He rarely likes to take shots down the field. Either he doesn't see them or he doesn't want to risk them or when he does, he is generally not accurate. He played great for 3 quarters on Monday, but you can't look at one game.

Crabtree played otustanding last year for hitting the field cold mid-season. I have faith in him that is based on past performance.

the offense itself is not WR friendly

Not entirely true, this offense calls for deep in routes and deep out routes. Those routes WRs rack up good yardage.

However you have to have accurate QB to make those throw.

ie. Troy Aikman, Philip Rivers

Wow... those are your examples? Rivers isn't even that great. Honestly, I'd take Smith over Rivers and his ugly sidearm toss.

yup, he needs to gain AS's trust again. Anyone notice that Morgan got 70+yds last game? its pretty obvious who Smith has confidence in...Davis, Gore, Morgan...

edit: it was 70 not 100, i musta misread the something...
