If you think it has nothing to do with the coaching, then we really don't have anything more to talk about.

If all you watch is the ball, then you have missed an ongoing weakness. It was the reason the team spent two high draft choices on OL last year. IMO, OL has been a close second to QB and was VERY often the reason QB play was not better.
I know the OL is not that good but I am sorry there are more productive QBs in the league than Alex Smith who have worse offensive lines than he does.
I won't go into another AS realm but the 49er OL was in the top 5 (worst 5?) in QB pressures/passing attempt last season. I would challenge you to show a comparison between pressures and productivity of QBs. I'm out for the next few hours. Back later.

As I said before. Much of the blame goes to Alex Smith for the poor oline play. I am not going to waste my time gathering offensive line statistics as I don't believe in statistics to assess the play of a group of players that don't touch the ball. I will assume what you say is true and challenge you to find the 4 offensive lines worse than ours over the span you are talking about and find the production of the QBs on those teams. I bet 3 of the 5 will have better production than Smith on a per game basis

All of those players played better than Alex Smith when on the field with the same coaching staffs I don't give a s**t if they were benched.

I'm willing to go out on a limb that no other NFL team in the past 5-7 years has invested as many high round draft picks on offensive linemen. Our O-line coaches have had good credentials and while they have had some success at run blocking, pass blocking has been a constant problem.
Why? Why?

OK, I think we are talking apples and oranges. You are saying that Alex contributed to poor O-Line play when if fact what you mean is that the O-Line isn't the reason Alex performed badly.
Those are 2 different things.

Ok now I know you are clueless. Shaun Hill outplayed Alex Smith there is no debating that. Troy Smith had more wins than Alex last year there is no debating that. Trent Dilfer had a 300 yard 3 touchdown win over Kurt Warner and the Cardinals Alex Smith has never had a win like that. Team Rattay had a 400 yard game in 04 Alex Smith never has and will never do that.
