How knowledgeable is the 49ers fanbase AS A WHOLE?

not very

Average Fan = Can intelligently speak to the recent goings on with the team

Average Fans = Idiotic mob

Nothing all that smart has ever came out of thousands of people drinking all day ontop of an us vs. them mentality.

And I love David Carr. I'm a Fresno State fan and will always like the guy and remember his college days. He's simply not a great NFL player and Alex Smith is DRAMATICALLY better than anyone else on the roster at QB...unfortunately I might add.

What people dont understand is that fans just wanted change, whether it was Troy Smith or Carr, it just happened that Carr was next in line. We were on a long losing streak and our season was basically ending. If people had "no clue of what they were talking about", then they would have been oblivious to the fact that the qb on the field had been stinking it up for the majority of his career with niners and wouldnt have chanted. So, It mostly had to do with numerous seasons of losing with that qb on the field and built frustration, than wanting Carr as a qb.

Awww...Change for the sake of change. That's worked really well for this team in the past.

See: Marucci, Steve and Erikson, Dennis

Smart enough to know more then the owners, and less then IBM Watson! lol

Watch more games and you will see why people wanted a change at QB. There are reasons why thousands of fans were booing and wanted Carr. It wasnt a change because thousands of fans just hate Smith. It was a change because they hated the way he would throw a screen that bounced 3 feet in front of Gore. Or miss wide open guys again and again. Or that panicky roll right n throw out of bounds. He was benched for a reason and yelled at by the HC for a reason. Even the announcers where laughing at Smith for christ sakes. Thankfully we got young rookie in the draft to rescue our QB situation.




P.S. Mooch quit on us in Tampa. Rewatch that game dude lol. Seriously.

I think most are diehard, and pretty knowledgeable about the state of the franchise....hence, the booing last year. If things continue as they have the last seven seasons, one must expect more boos. Although, there are a few that consider themselves "respectful faithful", which have become accustom to losing and are happy with the product we've been given the past seasons.

I find this to be the case with the Bay Area sports fan in general. I.E Golden State Warrior fans.

However if we were booing any other player besides you-know-who, this would not be a topic.

Trivia question. In the last 10 years how many players have been booed at any 49ers home game?

Dude, seriously...I can't remember the last time I missed a game. Besides, I'm not talking about Alex Smith. I'm talking about how much of a joke David Carr is and how dumb it is to chant at any point "WE WANT CARR"

I have no intention of turning this into a Alex Smith debate. Dude. lol. seriously.

i actually have a percentage to this question. on the niners webzone poll, 41% of niner fans that voted, said alex smith should get another shot to start. so at least 41% have no 49er knowledge whatsover!

I'm not even going to discuss Alex Smith because this is NOT an Alex Smith thread.

Well if you didnt miss a game you shouldnt be surprised about fans wanting Carr to play. The QB play from the "starter" was horrible which you should have saw if you were watching. Fans knew that Carr was/is a bad starting QB but he was the better option until he threw his first duck. Then he looked no better than the "starter."

One that I remember was Jeff Garcia 2000 vs Carolina.

Would this be a discussion if it were any other player being booed?

The people on here are pretty knowledgeable, and as for me I seriously have no clue on how I stuck with this team after the 2002 playoff run. Just a bad period of crappiness and mediocrity.
