Who's been benched for Shaun Hill, David Carr, Troy Smith, J.T. O'Sullivan, and Colin Kaepernick: Philip Rivers, or Alex Smith? Who has an atrocious 2-27-1 record in games where the other team scores 24+ points: Philip Rivers, or Alex Smith?

I like when you debate with an Alex Smith supporter the first 6 years don't count, but suddenly when all the pieces are in place the last 1.5 seasons in his career are the only ones that count. Let's not rule out that for years he faced the weakest division in the entire NFL.
It's really hard handing the ball off to Frank Gore isn't it Smith Fan? |

I know that Alex is ripped on here quite often, I am one of the people who is a supporter of the trade. 2nd round was steep for sure, but i think pretty highly of Alex. If you look closely at his numbers you can see that 27 of his ints and half of his lost fumbles came within his first 2 years. That was a 20 year old kid who just wasnt ready to play. Take the worst recent Chiefs team and times that by 50 and that was the team he played with his first 3 years.
Mike Nolan almost ended his career by throwing him under the bus and saying he wasnt injured when he needed his shoulder reconstructed. all the talent the 49ers have and everyone of them says he is the toughest player they know. I am pretty intrigued by what he will do. I watched all of his games at Utah and followed him, he is extremely intelligent. His mother actually was begging him to play football at Harvard but he wanted to play at a major college. He graduated in 2 years there. He knows the WC system well having been under Mike Mcarthy so there wont be a huge learning curve. I think our team has quite a bit of talent to put around him as well. Anyhow for all the bashing we have to admit he brings something fresh to our team. Smart, extremely tough, rarely turns the ball over. He is accurate and his yrd per attempt are really good which is a huge measure among NFL evaluators. Its an indication of if a QB can really read multiple defenses in a short amount of time. Even if he is dink an dunk he did it for a reason. But yes a second rounder is steep for almost anyone these days with the way the NFL goes. I just think Reid likes him as much as me. |

We don't focus on the last 4 years what we see is gradual improvement over the last 4 and a lot of misses games (which is my biggest fear) |

Know who else got a late start to QB stardom?
That's right: Hitler.

you don't trade 2 seconds for a QB that was benched...
sorry, meant to say: you don't trade 2 seconds for a QB that was benched and then not sign him to a long term contract....he'll be extended next year and will be our QB until the next 49er backup is available...per Clark Hunt

Did you guys think they traded two second round picks for him so he could QB this team for only one year?
This isn't rocket science. Reid/Dorsey believe in him. |

If Alex Smiff shows a penchant for throwing six yard passes on third and eight, then I will annoint him Elvis Bono and call for his crucifixion.
Until then, I'm willing to give the guy a chance. No reason to freak out until we see how he does. |

The 9ers had one of the worst 3rd down conversion percentages in the league for exactly this reason.
