Joe Namath on Alex smith

Alex Smith will be a third stringer, competing for a backup position after this season, if not out of the league. He is hot garbage.

he will be a starter on a team that uses his strengths to their advantage.

lol. OK, perhaps somebody can use JaMarcus's strengths too while were at it

Once again, typical pro Alex garbage.......according to them, bad QB's don't exist...there is only misuse

This is what I was looking for. But in all seriousness, Smith would be an all-pro in Denver right now.

Smith would be an All Pro for about 10 teams in this League. It's nonsensical the way the 9er fanbase has to be appeased by the QB when Football is a team sport and the team has been turning over the ball.

Shouldn't matter though cause Defense is playing like sh!t and now keeping us in a place where we can Win.

Defense allowed 14 points the last game.

Smith allowed 7. But if the Defense doesn't allow those 14 points that 7 wouldn't have even mattered. 3 Friggin TDs' SHOULD win you the game. Our fans are impossible to keep happy. That's the sad reality. Smith put up 300 and 3 TDs'. And some twit on Branch's blog said he hopes Smith gets benched this week.

My god people you seriously need to take a year off from being fans if 300 and 3 TDs' is not good enough for you.

I hope Smith gets past this and has a great career. Sadly I think that he should not be a 9er anymore though. Nobody should have to go through the crap that our fans put Smith through.

I'm no pro-AS, but using Jamarcus as a comparison is just wrong lol

Alex Smits Potential

What?

OK. Most of the NFL conclude that the 49ers have a good team and would be a contender if they had a better QB; like for instance Vick.

The 49ers have and contunue to try multiple offenses inorder to maximize Smith's game. Up until this point, they have gotten less than desired results. The OC calls a conservative game to protect him and he has not yet demontrated an ability to play aggresive without turning the ball over or missing wide-open opportunities.
Thus there is nothing to suggest that he would thrive in a different system.

Smith has been coached by various OC through out his career. On the flip side of what we often hear about this, it also means that he has recieved input from a variety of proven and knowledgable sources and although I do believe that it has made a postive difference, he still continues to make many of the same kind of mistakes and thus there is nothing to suggest that another coach would be the difference maker.

Smith's output rather on a weak team or one with talent has been at best average.

So if you have a good team, why would you bring in a QB who has done nothng but at best play average and more often than not, contribute to you losing games? Smith would be the LAST player to sign under these circumstances.

If you are on a weak team, why would you bring in a QB who has not proven to have the ability to make your team better?

At this point, I don't see any team bringing in Smith unless they need someone to either manage the game on a very good team or as a short term solution.

But who knows? Maybe Smith will show more from here out and mprove his current stock. I hope the best for him one way or another.

there is no dough he will get a nice contract, and there will be at least 15 team wanting for him to come and compete for a starting job...

can you imagine alex with a head coach like the one its in dever??? he would be an amazing qb, with all his intelligence and a mentor coach who can unlock all his potential??

last week he help himself in a big way reacting to adversity the way he did on ntaional television...

he made a lot of fans and that will be shown on the offseason...

I agree with everything you just said. the defense is giving up an average of over 20pts per game and yet Smith is the problem. Not to many teams win with a p***y defense that can't stop a team on 3rd and 15. Throw in the poor OLine performance and Gore's pitiful season so far and you have a QB who has to play catch up in every game he plays in.

Jamarcus doesn't have any strengths. He is a lazy fat slob. Smith has PROVEN!!! That he can be very successful in a spread offense. Smith will go to another team that will put him in a system that utilizes his strengths and all the haters will be wishing we re-signed him.

Denver High??

not everything is alex's fault. joe flacco's QB rating is only .5 better than alex's. the difference is a much better oline for flacco. alex will get picked up by a team and have a good chance to start.

Alex Smith choked. He got frazzled when he was booed and VD had to encourage him to speak up for his postion when his coach decided to bench him. He finally stood up and was not benched and led two nice drives but when he had an opportunity to take the lead he missed a wide open Gore. Te next play was typical Alex. An interception and game over. He may have garnered some sympathy points, but he certainly did not demonstrate the leadership needed to succeed in this league.

define successful. Did Alex win games in the NFL from the spread? Did he win championships? Surely he was voted into a Pro Bowl at some point right? What is proven success? A few meaningless Touch Downs???

All the Alex swingers should do us a favor and follow him to his next team, than they will really have the last laugh

Don't remember any choking in that final drive against NO. The line didn't have anything to do with that last interecption against Philly? With the fan base crashing down on his head and Singletary calling him out before a national audience (and his teammates strongly rallying for him) and under unbelievable pressure he leads two virtually perfect drives for TDs. I guarantee there are good NFL coaches who took notice of those games and would like to see what Smith could for them.

Jags, Vikes, Hawks, Raiders, Colts, Cards, Boys, and Panthers would all take him in a heartbeat.
