My $$ is on Hill, because he doesn't have the tools that Smith does, but finds a way to get the balls in tight spaces and moves the chains, something Alex will not do again this year. He looks impressive when he is doing drills, not in games.

I bet it will be close in preseason. Smith wins it by a hair. Our record by week 5 will be 1-4. Hill will come in on week 5 and lead us to a better record....pretty sure that is whats goign to happen. Also, players will not be happy if Smiths wins it (most likely cause of contract) they want to see the best passer on the field..which they all believe is Hill. You will see some uninspired play with Smith, esp when he starts sucking and throwing errand passes, sacks, fumbles...deer in headlights...lol.....

I also kind of feel that Hill may not start immediately, but eventually. I also agree with the portion of your statement that is now in bold. You could feel it last year. The offense played better with Hill in the lineup because they had more faith in him. Finally, someone else see's the light. Thank you!


Did they have more faith in Hill, or the game plan that Tollner helped tweak? Does your, and those who also share this perspective, dislike for Smith cloud your perception? Have you heard even one report of teammates not having trust in Smith? I certainly have never seen any, but I did read negative comments about Hostler.




Ill put my vote down for Smith. Hill didn't have a single snap in 6 years for a reason.
Perhaps my sarcasm hasn't been picked up on.

I don't support Hill.

Alex Smith, easily.... I could have thrown as many 3 yard passes as Shaun Hill. He is not the savior, please don't think he is.....

Alex Smith couldn't accurately complete those same short passes and I doubt you could either. Those short passes are sometimes check-downs. If the primary target is not open you have a check down or a hot route in case of mad pressure.

Alex had those same opportunities but when the primary receiver wasn't open he either:

a) threw the ball away
b) threw an interception
c) got sacked
d) fumbled

Find me one post in here that someone says Hill is the saviour. I am so sick of people putting words in other peoples mouths, that is garbage. Nobody said Hill is the 2nd coming nor a saviour but he gives us the best chance to win. Quit the BS. If you want to defend Alex Smith find a valid reason to do so. Don't bash Hill because he outperformed that chump Smith.
