Hell yeah start Smith after the bye. Hill hasn't played well win or lose, and we haven't won games because of him. He has a winning record technically, but that's because we've beat teams we should beat but he can't get this team to win vs a team that's as good or better than us. He's not a play making QB. I'm sorry but one TD pass to a WR 5 games into the season isn't very good, and he has thrown INTs too. He's a 2nd string game manager, teams are figuring him out and he can't make them pay by puting the ball where only the WR can get it or throwing the long ball when he was a 1 on 1 match up down field and the WR is behind the corner. Just look at when Morgan told Sing "that pass came down like a punt". I'm sorry but I don't buy that these recievers are that bad. Morgan was good last year, and when he's gotten open he hasn't gotten the ball. When he gets the ball he usually makes plays, just look at the 61 yard reception he had today. We need a QB to get the ball to the recievers down field, open s**t up, and that's how you open stuff up for your running game. We don't use as much play action because Shaun can't put the ball down the field. He makes his living dumping the ball off to the RB or TE but now that teams figure him out they just leave the recievers open, and blitz, and they make sure they take his dump off away and he can't do anything. Sorry but our recievers have been getting better but he can't make all the throws he needs to.
To everyone saying stuff like "NO, I would rather put in Nate Davis than crappy Smith" guess what, Nate ISN'T READY. He's a dyslexic rookie who is still learning the playbook and doesn't have chemistry with the first team. Atleast Smith got some snaps with them in PS. You think Smith sucks, well Hill hasn't done anything Smith couldn't have done, and I don't want to ruin Davis, so what's the risk in puting Smith in? Wake up and realize we aren't going to win if Hill keeps playing this badly. It's not that he's just playing badly, it's that he's a pretty limited QB who can't get the ball to the recievers because his arm doesn't let him and it's killing our ability to get drives going and it's killing the TOP and the defense is getting exhausted. Is everything Hill's fault? No. But we can't beat teams that are as talented as we are or better because he holds us back.

I don't know yet, I want to see Alex but then I dont. I feel as if I cheated when I want Alex in the game. Hill sucked badly in this game, his accuracy was just piss poor. Does alex have a better accuracy than Hill? I don't know for sure, 2 years is a long time and he could have improved in that aspect of his game. For sure though is that Alex Smith has a MUCH better deep ball accuracy than Hill. He also has a MUCH better arm than Hill does and can make those tight throws. I would give Hill one more chance and if he fu**s up again I think Alex deserves a chance.
The real question is if Alex would do any better with this OL? The OL is the weakest link in our team and that has to be fixed with coaching change first IMO.

Starting Smith after one bad game by Hill would be stupid. If Hill has multiple bad games then I can see that happening. But right now its not the time. Also how would starting Smith make the team any better, last time I checked that dude sucks worse then Hill.
Was that in 2007 when Smith led a great drive to beat Arizona?
No it was clearly the Seattle game when a 300lb+ fat ass fell on him. He really sucked it up in that game
Add the Seattle game where Smith did well on the last drive, and you guys just summed up all of Smith's career accomplishments.
Congratulations
yup you are 100% correctI don't know what we would do without Hill and his great ability to hand the ball off and throw passes that come down like punts.
We'd probably lose the Arizona opener and let Seattle come back in the home opener. But thats ok........those games were flukes. Just like every game Hill won for us last year. Good job.

i agree for the most part, give hill one more game and if he fails again then put in smith, i dont know what you mean by coaching change, maybe an o-line coach or something but to fire the OC midseason wouldnt be smart.

Better not wait that long...
Yeah, why lose with Hill when you can lose with Smith... in STYLE!

changes have to be made. the oline played crappy but Hill gets most of the blame today. 15 of 38? seriously? Jamarcus Russel is probably the only QB who had a worse day than Hill. Hill has been ok the last few games but in no way has he carried this team. Smith shouldve been put in durring the 4th quarter but i think singletary is afraid that a QB controversy this early in the season would tank the team. part of me agrees with singletary in sticking with Hill but at the same time Smith cant do any worse than Hill at this point, all those missed passes today were unacceptable. try smith atleast, you have nothing to lose in a game when your down 45-10. maybe smith could do the trick. 150 yards through the air on your good days is not enough to win in this league

I'm amused by the ninertalk panic.

I just hope this isn't the game where Hill got "figured out." I know in one of those millions of QB threads in the off season I said Hill will have good initial success only to have it come crashing down as the season rolls along and we play solid teams. I hope I was wrong.
