Enough already... It was 1 game... I don't want him back on the 49ers period!
How many times have we seen smith put up this kind of performance, then just flat out suck the next week, i don't trust him, IMO Smith is as big if not a bigger Fraud than Coach Sing is.

It is a hard call for me, but put a gun to my head and I will choose Alex Smith for the 49ers. At this point, we don't have anyone better to replace him. My ideal scenario would be to sign Alex Smith to a 2 year contract, and draft a replacement for him in the first round. If he pulls a Drew Brees, all the better, but if not he can be benched when we have a QB that is ready.
As long as we're talking about the Alex Smith that showed up yesterday as opposed to the Alex Smith of the last 6+ years, we might be ok. If it's the latter Alex, let him start for AZ.

That's up to the OL and OC. Unpredictable play-calling and even just decent pass protection and you will get this Alex Smith.

Not so sure about that. There were definitely other issues regarding Alex's development/production (or lack thereof) over the last 6 years that had nothing to do with Alex. But somewhere in there, you have to find a way to produce and play consistently good football. Yes, some of that was out of his control, but some was also Alex's fault...whether it be ability, confidence or execution, some of it does fall on the player.
If he can play like yesterday he can play here.
