I think this last half trumps the Seahawks game because he had no reps during the week and hadn't played a meaningful game in over 2 years. I can't remember the last time a QB looked so poised and delivered so many nice balls.
What I like the most about the last game was how much Smith seemed that he was in charge.

you mean a Niner QB right? because around the league a 2-5 QB's is doing this each week
No kidding. It seems as though this 6 year drought of decent play has lowered our expectations. A "decent" performance by any other quarterback is now what us Niner fans aspire to see on our own team.
I was an Alex Smith fan, but Hill's recent gritty play won me over. However, his lack of an arm (really evident this season) has made me wonder how effective Hill can be over the course of several seasons.
Yeah, last Sunday was probably Smith's finest half, but he needs to string together 20 more good halves to have my confidence as a fan. One half in which he almost brought the team back won't cut it.
