Of course Alex Smith can realize his potential at this point. He wouldn't be the first to be a late bloomer now would he?
Understand the CONTEXT of what I am saying.
Rich Gannon, and Kurt Warner. No, not saying that Alex Smith can be either one of those, but, Alex has a very similar skill set to Gannon. Mobility, their plusses as qbs being short accuracy, and being very smart.
Its amazing what situation and place can do for a guys career.

that's not true. Marty wanted to keep Brees. His GM wanted to move on with the younger Rivers. You know, the same idiot GM that fired marty after he went 14-2 and replaced him with the venerable Norv Turner. Brees was a legit non-game manager qb and he was still young at the time. CANNOT be compared to Alex "My best work in 7 years is as an efficient game manager" smith
