There's no way Smith stays on as a back up. It's obvious he wants to start. He will be competing for a starting role in Buffalo, Minnesota, Jacksonville, or Arizona next year. Book it.
I would tend to agree with this. He'll take on the journeyman role that Carr has taken on.
I do find it interesting though -- how many of Alex's supporters are so ready to ditch Carr -- when he hasn't even started Game One yet.
You know who these people are. They are the posters who call us "haters," or "not a true fan," or some other garbage.
I just find it interesting that they're willing to give Alex game after game after game after game after game to straighten it out (which he never will folks -- and that's the sad truth). Yet they're riding Carr's nvuts after two quarters of play.
Where is the consistency here? Perhaps it's the Smith supporters who are not true fans? Perhaps they are more in love with one player rather than the team itself.
Hmm....
A point to ponder....
No. We have 5 starting seasons worth of game film on David Carr. He tried other teams after the Texans and still failed. He's a known commodity and he proved yesterday he can't be relied upon as a back up either (even when you're up a TD). At least the last time Alex came off the bench he brought us back from a 21 point defecit. Think Carr would ever do that?
I support Carr and was rooting for him to be our savior yesterday but the guy didn't even show a glimmer of hope.
We should have kept Shaun Hill.
