Interesting article and confirms some thoughts about Crabtree (causing interceptions), VD (being very good), and Ginn (being very bad).
Talk about a QB and a WR not being on the same page! For such a good receiver, Crabtree was pretty ineffective. 8 ints!
Take Crabtree and Ginn out of the mix and QB ratings were pretty decent. Crabtree had more passes thrown his way than any other receiver, can't imagine why!

Its a good article, Alex Smiths figures look good on the first five recievers on the list.

A.Smiths numbers arent that bad for last year. I would also like to add that the offensively philosophy sucked as with the O.Line play. I might be just wishfull thinking but I would bet he would be alot more effective with Harbaugh. Something that Harbaugh has to do is build Smith confidence more. That is a good reason why Smith was so inconsistant with his throws. When a Qb doesnt have faith in himself or his O.line play it is a recipe for disaster.
We all know about his confidence level because of coaching,fans, etc etc. I would like to see him sign again with the team. I would love to see them draft Ponder and see where the cards fall.
Also for a true #3 or even #2 receiver draft Titus Young from Boise.

Crabtree needs to step his game up. If Gore stayed healthy he would have easily been the 2nd best pass catching option behind VD. That's just sad.

Crabtree has yet to have a training camp with the Niners--holdout/injury. He needs that.

Michael Crabtree in 2010
Troy Smith: 17 of 34, 317 yards, 4 TD, 2 INT (97.3)-The best stretch he had in 2010

May be the third year in a row with no training camp if the CBA is not concluded by fall.

Talk about a QB and a WR not being on the same page! For such a good receiver, Crabtree was pretty ineffective. 8 ints!
Take Crabtree and Ginn out of the mix and QB ratings were pretty decent. Crabtree had more passes thrown his way than any other receiver, can't imagine why!
Just because the numbers reflect poorly on Crabtree doesn't mean he was "the cause" of interceptions. The statistics don't tell us how poorly the ball was thrown to him, which on most of them, was evident.

Do you mean to suggest the quarterbacking for the 49ers played a role in the interceptions?
I am having quite a bit of difficulty believing that one, my friend.

I think the DVOA might say you're wrong. You can't argue with DVOA...whatever it is.

Yep, Austin Collie is the best receiver in football...Didn't you know? NOTHING to do with that all-pro QB throwing him the ball.
