Here is why I think this fails. Here are Smiths attempts and QB rating for the last 4 years.
09 33.8 att/game 81.5 QB Rating
10 31.09 att/game 82.4 QB Rating
11 27.8 att/game 90.7 QB Rating
12 21.8 att/game 104.1 QB rating
The 2012 Eagles averaged 38.6 att/game.
So as you can see what the "QB Whisperer" Jim Harbaugh did took the ball out of Smith's hands more. Boom. All of a sudden he is "better".
Hopefully Reid adjust, but a lot of these guys get their system and phiolosphy and don't want to vary from it, or just resort back to it out of instinct. If Alex throws 38 times a game you are on pace to be looking at Matt Cassell/Mark Sanchez type results.
