I'm not pointing that out to say it's all about flashy stats, but teams aren't winning because Alex Smith is the QB. He's not doing dumb things to make them lose, but he's not doing anything special to win. He didn't defeat those elite QBs, hell he wasn't even on the field when they were... that's a silly stat.
Smith has been around good RBs and defenses, but can't get teams over the hump because he doesn't have "it".

He's not a great QB or whatever adjective like "it"? Thanks for breaking that news.
But since 2009 rank the approx talent Pass Block+Pass Catching
What offense on do you look back and say 'man Smith really held back a good offense'?
Every season but half of 13 and 12 bad pass protection + this group of studs + coaches tending to play it safe.
How was he not putting up big numbers and TDs?
