I actually think some people are bummed because he should dump Alex Smith down to second string. I know it is only one game, and many back ups only shine in back up roles, and don't make good starters.
What is it, I thought this place would be rocking after Sunday's game. I know the season is shot, but maybe Troy gives us something to look forward to for the rest of the season.

REALLY!! Come on now. I am not going to get pumped over 1 game. Troy was a unknown commodity that Denver really know what to expect. Now there is game film and the Rams will be better prepared. The O was watered down for him. It is way to early to get excited.

Are you pumped over 2 games? In his first game he showed abilities we haven't seen since Garcia. Given the O-line sucks, even with all the high draft picks, he can succeed in spite of them, which Alex Smith could not.

Not yet!!! He has potential, I will admit, however it is just 2 games. Even the announcers said that the Rams had very little game tape and didn't know what to expect. They even went back to his game film from when he was at Ohio State. Johnson had a GREAT game plan and we took advantage. Lets not lose sight that we beat the Lambs!!!! IN OVERTIME no less. Our opponents the rest of the year are pretty vanilla. He gives me reason to get excited but I personally am going to temper that until next year. Even then I don't even know if he will stay around. He may feel that he needs to follow Sing and leave. Plus new coach may want to bring his own guy in. Will see. The only thing I have to get excited about is when Sing gets handed his walking papers!!!

Not only did Troy Smith make heroic plays at the end of the game, not only did he throw for more yards than we have seen around here for 6+ years (?), but he also probably had the highest quarterback rating that we have seen for 6+ years (?).

Oh ya, I almost forgot. He is 2-0.

The Rams are for real. They have a serious quarterback, with a good defense and will be a thorn in our sides for the next decade.

"Heroic plays" Really!?! I digress, he beat 2 below .500 teams. It is laughable how so many people on the zone are so eager to anoint a savior. Everyone is acting as if we found the next Joe Montana. When he beats a playoff caliber team with a top 5 D then I may concede. Why should I get excited over a player that may not even be on our team next year. I can say that he is the best QB that the niners have. That is not saying much! God willing this will be Sing's last year as our coach and we will hire a new HC that will want to bring in his own QB to groom. Plus Troy may want to cash in on a big pay day. We did only sign him to 1 yr contract. Another thing, I also wonder why the Ravens would cut him. They kept a aging Marc Bulger over Troy Smith. Ozzie Newsom is a great GM and talent evaluator. Why would he pick Marc over Troy? There had to be more than just height. I'm just saying!!!

The Rams at the time were at .500 and have a top 10 defense. So yes Troy did beat a pretty decent team with a good defense. Before the loss to the 49ers the Rams were the division leaders by the way...just a little FYI. Did you also know that if it were not for an illness Troy Smith would be the starting QB in Baltimore?? You might want to check up on your football before you come in here with your high and mighty attitude.

There D ranked 12th in the league. They have beaten Redskins, Seahawks, Chargers, and the Panthers. They lost to the Lions 44 -6!!! That is hardly a resume to brag about. This team took us into overtime. Maybe you should check out your football before you type!!! You and most of everyone on here are jumping on his band wagon after 2 wins. Against the Denver Broncos who are 3-6 with and the Rams who are 4-5. Broncos have the 25th ranked D and Rams have the 12th ranked. I do not consider either of them as a playoff contender. If you think they are playoff teams you need help!!! EVERYONE is blinded by the W's. While the W's are nice they come against weak opponents. Obviously he is not sick this year so why did they cut him?

The Rams defense is ranked 6th for points allowed with only allowing an average of 18.2 points per game. A defense can allow 9000 yards per game but if they are not allowing the other teams offense to put points on the board then they are a solid defense. The Rams defense is 12th in yards allowed. To blow off the Rams defense and say they are not a good defense is just ridiculous. So yes I do know what I am talking about before I type. Maybe you should look at other stats besides just yards allowed. Unless you don't realize that the team with the most yards isn't always the team that wins, it is the team with the most points.

Nobody is anointing Troy Smith the savior of the world, but rather excited about the new energized offensive spark he has brought to the team after a pathetic start to the season. Troy Smith is clearly a play maker and you can't see that. Your eyes are stuck on " OMGZ HE WUZ CUT FROM BALTIMORE, HE IS THE SUXORS!" He has some things he needs to improve upon, but right now he is the best chance the 49ers have at winning any games right now.

To you statement about "everyone being blinded by the W's" Is that not what matters? If a team is winning why b***h and complain? "OMGZ TROY SMITH IS THE SUXORS BUT WE'RE WINNING" So to all of "US" that are blinded by the winning I have this to say GO f**kING NINERS!!!!

ARE THE RAMS A PLAYOFF CONTENDER???? DO THEY HAVE A TOP 5 D???? Is that what you want to hang your hat on? We beat the RAMS!!! Wooo freaking whooo!!! I should buy my ticket for the Super Bowl book a flight to Dallas then. We beat the Rams in overtime! Yeah baby!!!

did I say they were a playoff contender? did I say a top 5 D?? Nope sure didn't. I guess when you get proved wrong you resort to putting words in peoples mouths to make yourself seem cooler than you really are. Troy Smith has started 2 games and has won 2 games. When push comes to shove the only thing that matters is wins. What will your excuse be if the 49ers beat the Bucs and Troy has another great day like he did on Sunday? Oh it's just The bucs

Some people just can't be happy with a win.

The reason everyone you should be happy is because we WON the freakin game, and TROY SMITH brought us back. He had like 4TD, but 3 were called back because of penalties.

If your not excited for how Troy Smith played the last 2 weeks, then you haven't been excited since Steve Young was still playing.

It was a soft team and at home too. Alex could win that game. Not really that impressive IMO. Still a win is a win.

I did not put words in your mouth. I said that I will get excited when he beats a playoff team with a top 5 D. You then contended that the Rams were a .500 team before we played them and had a top 10 D! Obviously neither met my credentials to get excited. As for the Bucs, that would be a quality win but they do not have a top 5 D!!! They have the 22 ranked D(YPG) and allow 22 points a game! AGAIN it does not meet the credentials. FYI we do not play anyone the rest of the season that is a playoff contender with a top 5 D. Even if I widen it to top 10 D there is still no one on the schedule that meets the criteria. SORRY! Game over.....

There D ranked 12th in the league. They have beaten Redskins, Seahawks, Chargers, and the Panthers. They lost to the Lions 44 -6!!! That is hardly a resume to brag about. This team took us into overtime. Maybe you should check out your football before you type!!! You and most of everyone on here are jumping on his band wagon after 2 wins. Against the Denver Broncos who are 3-6 with and the Rams who are 4-5. Broncos have the 25th ranked D and Rams have the 12th ranked. I do not consider either of them as a playoff contender. If you think they are playoff teams you need help!!! EVERYONE is blinded by the W's. While the W's are nice they come against weak opponents. Obviously he is not sick this year so why did they cut him?

The Rams defense is ranked 6th for points allowed with only allowing an average of 18.2 points per game. A defense can allow 9000 yards per game but if they are not allowing the other teams offense to put points on the board then they are a solid defense. The Rams defense is 12th in yards allowed. To blow off the Rams defense and say they are not a good defense is just ridiculous. So yes I do know what I am talking about before I type. Maybe you should look at other stats besides just yards allowed. Unless you don't realize that the team with the most yards isn't always the team that wins, it is the team with the most points.

Nobody is anointing Troy Smith the savior of the world, but rather excited about the new energized offensive spark he has brought to the team after a pathetic start to the season. Troy Smith is clearly a play maker and you can't see that. Your eyes are stuck on " OMGZ HE WUZ CUT FROM BALTIMORE, HE IS THE SUXORS!" He has some things he needs to improve upon, but right now he is the best chance the 49ers have at winning any games right now.

To you statement about "everyone being blinded by the W's" Is that not what matters? If a team is winning why b***h and complain? "OMGZ TROY SMITH IS THE SUXORS BUT WE'RE WINNING" So to all of "US" that are blinded by the winning I have this to say GO f**kING NINERS!!!!

ARE THE RAMS A PLAYOFF CONTENDER???? DO THEY HAVE A TOP 5 D???? Is that what you want to hang your hat on? We beat the RAMS!!! Wooo freaking whooo!!! I should buy my ticket for the Super Bowl book a flight to Dallas then. We beat the Rams in overtime! Yeah baby!!!

did I say they were a playoff contender? did I say a top 5 D?? Nope sure didn't. I guess when you get proved wrong you resort to putting words in peoples mouths to make yourself seem cooler than you really are. Troy Smith has started 2 games and has won 2 games. When push comes to shove the only thing that matters is wins. What will your excuse be if the 49ers beat the Bucs and Troy has another great day like he did on Sunday? Oh it's just The bucs

Some people just can't be happy with a win.

I did not put words in your mouth. I said that I will get excited when he beats a playoff team with a top 5 D. You then contended that the Rams were a .500 team before we played them and had a top 10 D! Obviously neither met my credentials to get excited. As for the Bucs, that would be a quality win but they do not have a top 5 D!!! They have the 22 ranked D(YPG) and allow 22 points a game! AGAIN it does not meet the credentials. FYI we do not play anyone the rest of the season that is a playoff contender with a top 5 D. Even if I widen it to top 10 D there is still no one on the schedule that meets the criteria. SORRY! Game over.....

so if the 49ers win out the rest of the season, take the division and go into the play offs you still won't be satisfied Ok mods found another troll.

What is it, I thought this place would be rocking after Sunday's game. I know the season is shot, but maybe Troy gives us something to look forward to for the rest of the season.

REALLY!! Come on now. I am not going to get pumped over 1 game. Troy was a unknown commodity that Denver really know what to expect. Now there is game film and the Rams will be better prepared. The O was watered down for him. It is way to early to get excited.

Are you pumped over 2 games? In his first game he showed abilities we haven't seen since Garcia. Given the O-line sucks, even with all the high draft picks, he can succeed in spite of them, which Alex Smith could not.

Not yet!!! He has potential, I will admit, however it is just 2 games. Even the announcers said that the Rams had very little game tape and didn't know what to expect. They even went back to his game film from when he was at Ohio State. Johnson had a GREAT game plan and we took advantage. Lets not lose sight that we beat the Lambs!!!! IN OVERTIME no less. Our opponents the rest of the year are pretty vanilla. He gives me reason to get excited but I personally am going to temper that until next year. Even then I don't even know if he will stay around. He may feel that he needs to follow Sing and leave. Plus new coach may want to bring his own guy in. Will see. The only thing I have to get excited about is when Sing gets handed his walking papers!!!

Not only did Troy Smith make heroic plays at the end of the game, not only did he throw for more yards than we have seen around here for 6+ years (?), but he also probably had the highest quarterback rating that we have seen for 6+ years (?).

Oh ya, I almost forgot. He is 2-0.

The Rams are for real. They have a serious quarterback, with a good defense and will be a thorn in our sides for the next decade.

"Heroic plays" Really!?! I digress, he beat 2 below .500 teams. It is laughable how so many people on the zone are so eager to anoint a savior. Everyone is acting as if we found the next Joe Montana. When he beats a playoff caliber team with a top 5 D then I may concede. Why should I get excited over a player that may not even be on our team next year. I can say that he is the best QB that the niners have. That is not saying much! God willing this will be Sing's last year as our coach and we will hire a new HC that will want to bring in his own QB to groom. Plus Troy may want to cash in on a big pay day. We did only sign him to 1 yr contract. Another thing, I also wonder why the Ravens would cut him. They kept a aging Marc Bulger over Troy Smith. Ozzie Newsom is a great GM and talent evaluator. Why would he pick Marc over Troy? There had to be more than just height. I'm just saying!!!

The Rams at the time were at .500 and have a top 10 defense. So yes Troy did beat a pretty decent team with a good defense.

It was a soft team and at home too. Alex could win that game. Not really that impressive IMO. Still a win is a win.

All your credibility is lost as a poster if u think Alex coulda won that game. He wouldn't have been able to convert 3rd and 28 non the less 3 and 38 and then 4th and 21 . Difference between the two Qbs Alex when hurried gets outta pocket and looks for checkdown then throws the ball away. Troy keeps looking down field as he's running and isn't afraid to make a play. We would have lost to rams if Alex was in that game same situation with broncos ... its time we move on from him. Tried to give him a chance this yr but he's same terrible self. No excuses

I'm all for Troy Smith but what if he comes in and throws 3 picks next game? Would you still be satisfied? It's only 2 games.

All I'm saying myself is that is was the Rams, and a horrible Broncos team. We really don't have a slightest clue what Troy has. What happens when teams start limiting his outside abilities, and they get enough game film on him to take away some of the things he's been able to do? We've seen Shaun Hill come out and play pretty well, then teams caught up to him, Alex played pretty well the first couple games last season teams caught up to him.

So crowning Troy as the almighty franchise QB is far too early. I agree that we need to see him perform the rest of the season. Am I stoked that he has played well and gotten the wins? Of course! But at the same time, lets wait and see what he has against good teams, with better gameplans first.

This team took us into overtime. Maybe you should check out your football before you type!!! You and most of everyone on here are jumping on his band wagon after 2 wins. Against the Denver Broncos who are 3-6 with and the Rams who are 4-5. Broncos have the 25th ranked D and Rams have the 12th ranked. I do not consider either of them as a playoff contender. If you think they are playoff teams you need help!!! EVERYONE is blinded by the W's. While the W's are nice they come against weak opponents. Obviously he is not sick this year so why did they cut him?

The Rams defense is ranked 6th for points allowed with only allowing an average of 18.2 points per game. A defense can allow 9000 yards per game but if they are not allowing the other teams offense to put points on the board then they are a solid defense. The Rams defense is 12th in yards allowed. To blow off the Rams defense and say they are not a good defense is just ridiculous. So yes I do know what I am talking about before I type. Maybe you should look at other stats besides just yards allowed. Unless you don't realize that the team with the most yards isn't always the team that wins, it is the team with the most points.

Nobody is anointing Troy Smith the savior of the world, but rather excited about the new energized offensive spark he has brought to the team after a pathetic start to the season. Troy Smith is clearly a play maker and you can't see that. Your eyes are stuck on " OMGZ HE WUZ CUT FROM BALTIMORE, HE IS THE SUXORS!" He has some things he needs to improve upon, but right now he is the best chance the 49ers have at winning any games right now.

To you statement about "everyone being blinded by the W's" Is that not what matters? If a team is winning why b***h and complain? "OMGZ TROY SMITH IS THE SUXORS BUT WE'RE WINNING" So to all of "US" that are blinded by the winning I have this to say GO f**kING NINERS!!!!

ARE THE RAMS A PLAYOFF CONTENDER???? DO THEY HAVE A TOP 5 D???? Is that what you want to hang your hat on? We beat the RAMS!!! Wooo freaking whooo!!! I should buy my ticket for the Super Bowl book a flight to Dallas then. We beat the Rams in overtime! Yeah baby!!!

did I say they were a playoff contender? did I say a top 5 D?? Nope sure didn't. I guess when you get proved wrong you resort to putting words in peoples mouths to make yourself seem cooler than you really are. Troy Smith has started 2 games and has won 2 games. When push comes to shove the only thing that matters is wins. What will your excuse be if the 49ers beat the Bucs and Troy has another great day like he did on Sunday? Oh it's just The bucs

Some people just can't be happy with a win.

I did not put words in your mouth. I said that I will get excited when he beats a playoff team with a top 5 D. You then contended that the Rams were a .500 team before we played them and had a top 10 D! Obviously neither met my credentials to get excited. As for the Bucs, that would be a quality win but they do not have a top 5 D!!! They have the 22 ranked D(YPG) and allow 22 points a game! AGAIN it does not meet the credentials. FYI we do not play anyone the rest of the season that is a playoff contender with a top 5 D. Even if I widen it to top 10 D there is still no one on the schedule that meets the criteria. SORRY! Game over.....

so if the 49ers win out the rest of the season, take the division and go into the play offs you still won't be satisfied Ok mods found another troll.

If we win out the season against mediocre teams and Sing gets to keep his job I will be pissed!!!!!!!!!!

So what your saying is that if we make the playoff because we lost to all the playoff contenders we played and beat the crappy teams in our terrible division you would be happy??? I think it is sad that the winner of our division may finish at .500!! If they took teams with the best record no one from the NFC west would be in the playoffs. I think they have even debated that in the off season meeting if I remember correctly. If that is true AFC west and NFC west are giving them good reason to change that this year.

The reason everyone you should be happy is because we WON the freakin game, and TROY SMITH brought us back. He had like 4TD, but 3 were called back because of penalties.

If your not excited for how Troy Smith played the last 2 weeks, then you haven't been excited since Steve Young was still playing.

I doubt they were excited even then.

Prolly not. A lot of gaybobs back then were all butthurt that Joe Montana wasn't playing anymore so therefore Steve Young was the suxors. I've come to the conclusion that there sure are some stupid SF "fans"-embarrassing really.

We are in danger of keeping sing with this meaningless win streak. That's what people should really be worried about...

Doncha know silly? That's just plain retarded. Those wins mean nothing. He hasn't done jack. It's just 2 wins. Njoy the sarcasm.
