I like Smith, but he's a loser when the game is on him. Great example of a guy with all the tools, plenty of smarts, but just chokes when it's his turn to make that play in the drive that wins the big games. I recall he did just that a few seasons ago during a playoff game, but 1 time in all the years he's been playing for the niners is all I can think of, and that's not gonna get fixed by coaching. You can stand on a guy's head to win, but it'll kill ya as a coach because it isn't always going to work. I think more than anything, Harbaugh made the change because CK delivered with ease -- coaching ease. Don't know how CK holds up going forward, but then, that is why you play him. Harbaugh knows what he has in Smith, he's going to take a look at CK now, and if the kid can continue to handle it with "ease" then, well...
