That's the answer on yahoo answers.
It's literally a description of Alex Smith.

Can't really argue with that. I don't see how that's viewed as such a negative. It's nothing to go crazy about but he wins you games. I would add in the ability to put the team on your back when needed. His 6 comebacks last year, and his performance against New Orleans is something he's been doing his whole career. When the game is on the line the light kicks on.
