Plays of the day: Quarterback Alex Smith could not have thrown the deep ball better when he put four consecutive passes on the money during a passing drill. On consecutive go-routes against man coverage, Smith hit Brandon Jones, Michael Crabtree, Josh Morgan and Ted Ginn with perfect passes approximately 40 yards down field. Crabtree, however, dropped his pass.

His stats were pretty even under center vs shotgun as the season progressed actually. Look it up.

Glad to see there are some bitter people who bought some O'Sullivan jerseys.

Goodnight.

As uninspiring as QB Alex Smith's play has been this practice, backup QB David Carr has been even worse. He's already been picked off twice and looks uncomfortable throwing anything besides checkdowns. QB Nate Davis might challenge him before long.

LOL, I thought Smith was firing deep TD passes this morning...and now his play was "uninspiring?"

This is why I never take any of these reports too seriously. These are the same reports that lauded JTO.

Along with the coaches... He did beat Smith out didnt he?

Smith was still hurt now wasn't he!!!

Come on! Don't use a broken bone in his throwing shoulder as an excuse!!!!!

JTO won the job because he knew Martz's gay offense better, get your facts straight. How's JTO doin now?

Certainly not getting any starting gigs handed to him without earning it like someone else I know.

lol Alex Smith is in no way shape or form being "handed" a starting gig. He has most certainly earned it, by playing in 9 1/2 games, putting up numbers like he had played an entire 16 game season, having a BETTER QB rating than Peyton Manning. And now with continuity this season with the same OC, good numbers from last season for only playing in 9 1/2 games, there's no reason Alex Smith doesn't deserve the starting job. Not to mention the fact that he's molded into a fine leader supposedly.

And the fact he lost the starting job to JTO before he re-aggravated his shoulder, CLEARLY means that his throwing arm/shoulder, was never 100% back to the way it was to START with.

Peyton Manning had a QB rating of 99 last year compared to Smith's 80, so Im not sure about your math on that one... but thats besides the point. My biggest issue is that all of those stats were achieved out of the spread formation and a good chunk of them were against soft, prevent defenses.

Until Smith shows that he can be a productive out of a pro-style offense (i.e. operating from under center), our offense will never achieve enough balance to be successful over a 16 game season.

I sincerely hope that he proves me wrong, but Im not getting my hopes up.

Who the f**k cares "how" he produced the numbers he did. The fact is he played better than he ever has before in his career. You really are making "Alexcuses".

Wouldnt an "Alexcuse" come from a supporter of the kid trying to validate his accomplishments, not a critic trying to do the opposite? I think you might be mistaken in your idea of what an excuse is.

You're making excuses as to why Smith was successful last year. By basically saying, oh, he only produced all of his good stats while in the spread/shotgun formation. Like get real dude.

Wrong again... Here is the definition of an excuse:

You cant make excuses for a good performance, only a bad one. For example, a common excuse for why Smith has failed up to this point is because he was mishandled by Nolan.

What I was doing would be more appropriately classified as belittling he performance... Im not trying to be mean here, just letting you know you are completely wrong.

Who ever said I was a fan of JTO's... All I ever said was he was simply the lesser of two evils.
