Alex Smith played six games a year against one of of the worst divisions in NFL history for much of his career and, by your own admission, never registered above adequate.
Look how the Panthers made Quinn look this year. Smith got that six times per year. He also had tremendous offensive lines in 2010 and 2011, and to be honest, he's always had decent to very good defenses. He's always had Frank Gore as a security blanket, and, recently, an emerging group of receivers.
