Don't tell me.
Show me!

haha everyone should take it personally that the NFL nation expects Kolb to have a way better season than Smith, and the fact is that Kolb have proved nothing. I Feel its Niner hate, because of the past success of our franchise!

Im an Alex Smith fan but he hasnt proven anything either. im gonna say what has been said in all the Alex Smith threads, this is his make or break year, he either succeeds(which means win the west and get us into the playoffs) or gets the F out

No comparison. Alex was 20 and thrown in way too early with no talent around him, got hurt and so on. Kolb had the luxury of sitting behind a top flight QB, learning one system, under one regime and got his feet wet with loads of talent around him. Of course he projects better, that's how you develop a QB and why we cranked them out for 20 years: continuity. Kolb also started a lot more games in college.

Who cares Eagles will finish last in there division

I just cant wait till we get the Eagles in our house, we will finally beat them this year.

I feel bad for Kolb to be honest...seeing how well Mcnabb did there and philly fans hate him and always wanted him gone. Now Kolb is going to take them to a superbowl and win this year? Doubtful. Unless he does that and wins by like 45 points hes going to be bood at by the philly fans next. Really no win situation there.

I'm not sold on Smith but regarding Kolb. There's a lot of hype on such small and meaningless body of work.

Before I can answer this question, I need one more piece of information... What size are Kolb's hands?

We finally get a true picture of what the Niners Brass REALLY think about alex Smith (not what they put out for media consumption).
When ESPN was interviewing Trent Baalke at camp(I think it was Mort?) ,Baalke said about Alex...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm not saying Alex Smith is a great quarterback in the NFL, but if we protect him and we've surrounded him with the right kind of players, put him in the right system and stay out of all the third-and-8s that we had last year, then he'll be just fine.:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is and has been my opinion about Alex in 2010. He won't be anything special in the NFL BUT if we don't ask him to do too much,then the team around him can make up for his shortcomings. The REAL truth emerges ! I wonder if Baalke is in trouble for telling it like it is ,instead of trying to build up Alex's confidence ?

"Alex with no talent around him"......== EXCUSES, EXCUSES, EXCUSES,
I wonder what will be the next wonderfull excuse if he chokes like always... Well, now it cant be talent, or the OL, maybe we can blame Mummy Raye, that would be an option...
