Exactly. Even early in the 2000s we were in playoff games. Only when the Alex era was beginning did we stay down for so long. The lowpoint in franchise history my friends. The good thing is it goes in cycles and our time is coming once again.
You guys are ignorant if this is your take on this topic. The problem is that in 2004 we dumped 90% of our talent. It is easy to blame someone that had nothing to do with the root of the problem, but if you use the brain the Good Lord gave you, you would be able to see that no matter who we picked with that #1 pick, they would not have been able to overcome what had just been done to this team by its front office.
Yeah, and we gave some of that talent back to Alex from 2006-2010. Didnt do much with it, now did he ?
Also, Sam Bradford went to the worst team in the NFL and what's his excuse? He threw for more 300 Yard games in his rookie year than Alex has in his sorry-ass 6 year career!
He has a better talent level around him, he has more talent. I am just saying that Smith is nowhere close to the worst player I have seen in a niner uniform. He is not even the worst QB we have ever had. If you think anything other than that you are just ignorant or a jackass...or both.
First of all, Sam Bradford does NOT have better talent around him. Actually, he has NO talent around him (besides Stephen Jackson, who is worse than Gore). That is why a lot of NFL analysts are impressed with him. He achieved a LOT with a lot less than Alex had.
Two, ALEX IS the worst QB who donned a uniform based on EXPECTATIONS. You can put Rattay, Dorsey, or even Druckenmiller into the mix, but none of these guys were EXPECTED to do what Alex was supposed to. On top of that, none of them served as one of the main anchors that held the team down for such a long period of time. You can defend Smith all you want, but Smith was a MAIN REASON (on top of many) why the team has been so bad since 2005.
