Summary: What he SAID...

Alex Smith:

-I've been given the keys to the car, this is my time, my team, I've earned this, now I gotta get it done.

-This is the best year for me (in my career) so far, I have the entire first reps in camp all to myself, I feel good, Crabtree is my home-boy.

-Frank Gore and Vernon need more respect.

-Now it's time to get it done, get better everyday, and take advantage of the skill players we have.

-I'm glad to be here, be a 49er, and stick with the team up to this point.

He said a lot of what we'd expect, but he was exuding a LOT of confidence during the interview. There wasn't your typical "Alex Smith" moment (like in his previous interviews) where he paused for 3 seconds and went: "uhhhhh"; dude never missed a beat!

SUMMARY: What he MEANT...

Alex Smith:

-I SUCK

-I've ALWAYS sucked

-I can't believe they gave me another year

-I will be burned if effigy when 49er playoff hopes go up in smoke after Game 5

-It really doesn't matter cause I'll still get paid

He didn't say any of this by the way.

When asked if this was the most comfortable he's felt at the QB position he said absolutely, nothing about the best year or getting all the reps.

When asked if Gore and Vernon get enough respect around the league he said he thinks Gore has a lot of respect around the league and Vernon earned the respect last year.

Never mentioned anything about sticking with the team or being glad to be a 49er.

My thing is if he mentioned the part where it was said it's his team, and the analogy of the keys and driving the car. if he said it's my team, then that should be enough for anyone.

Now did he say that part at least?

He said when he was a rookie he was given the keys to the car but now he feels like he's earned it. He also said he felt like it was his team.
Just because you've never been warned doesn't mean you've ever been liked

Although he didn't use some of those exact words (like home-boy) I was simply just paraphrasing/emphasizing his tone (and it pretty much sums it up well).
