Alex is going to gear sh*t up the rest of the season!!! Because he knows he's done in the NFL if he doesent.
he's a smart dude, he should realize this. He mentioned it today in the press conference. Lets hope he's turned a corner. But I'm not holding my breath.

Smith lacks an alpha dog instinct to dominate and mercilessly take down the opposition. It's not all about bravado, but an internal mindset. Joe Montana was quiet and unassuming, but he had a competitive fire and would take you apart. The big knock on Steve Young for a long time was that he didn't have that Montana killer instict. Ultimately, he got it done with a lot of support. I think intellectually Young is the closer comparrison to Smith. What is so damn frustrating about Smith is that he's a pretty damn good football player when his back is to the wall and his juices are flowing. But he only seems to get into that mindset when we're down three freakin' touchdowns and it's a hopeless cause. He flat out said so much in his press conference today. He has the self awareness. I think we need some more designed runs for him, in addition to more no huddle. He'll get more of an adrenaline rush and will quit thinking if he's running for his life, reacting and getting his uniform dirty. We should see more designed bootleg runs and QB draws. He's fast enough to make it productive and it will have the incidental benefit of getting his blood going and quiet his nerves.
He lacks the ability to read, think, and act quickly. Philly figured out our "spread" on that last drive. NFL blitzers are faster than college and they will be up on the QB fast.
Spread = unblocked blitzers = quick throw = shorter passes = more pick sixes.

The boo-birds will be in full flock for this one, i'm sure. Especially if we lose!! Oh god I hope we don't lose

Alex Smith lacks confidence plain and simple. When Alex does make a nice play, series or game for that matter, rarely does that lead to sustained confidence. He always seems to reset and default back to square one.
Alex MUST play with nothing to lose. You see a receiver open, boom throw the ball. Let's stop over analyzing everything and play like there's no tomorrow.
Next weekend against the Raiders will be very telling!

Last night was disappointing for me because it showed just how little our 49ers fans who go to the games really know about football.
