Because you don't like Smith?
Aikman had a QB rating nearly identical over his super bowl years.

Sure. Would you like to see Troy Aikman's early career?
Total QB Rating for Aikman's first 38 starts: 70.5
Alex Smtih in his first 38 starts? 71.9
* I chose 38 starts because that's the number of starts Troy Aikman had in 1989 - 1991.

Alex Smith, 63% passer under Harbaugh. 7.2 yards per attempt
Troy Aikman in his 'super bowl years' - 1992- 1995: 65% passer rating, 7.5 yards per attempt.
Wow, Troy Aikman is soooo much more accurate, with a much stronger arm.

And Alex Smith basically missed two years.

Troy Aikman was considered a bust after his first two seasons.
Alex Smith's first two seasons were better.
Troy Aikman got better when Norv Turner was hired in his 3rd season.
Alex Smith tore his shoulder and didn't play healthy until 2009 after Norv Turner left.
Alex has his Norv now.
