You see what happened to RW and Cam Newton in a week's span?

What kind of load of crap is this? After 12 years in the NFL... NOW is the time to make him a pocket QB and build his trust with an oline that hasn't been consistently the same in his 4 years here or whatever gasbag take you are trying to spew to defend the fact that half of what made Alex Smith even decent was his ability to be sneaky fast and extend the chains with his legs. You take that away, which either teams are, or maybe dare I say FATHER TIME has taken that away from him, he's almost useless as a QB. He's not beating most from the pocket. Sure he can beat whatever crap QBs the Browns are throwing out there or whatever career backup noodle arms like Ryan Fitzpatrick. But he's not beating many people from the pocket without his ability to use his legs. Unless of course half the leagues starting QBs get injured and he has a 7 game window of playing 2nd and 3rd string nobodies again.
