What is that RB doing?
Looks like he was doing a Ray Lewis pre game routine. Hoppin around without a care. Especially If you see the other team sending rushers get your butt in gear. Would he of even had his head turned around if Smith escapes left and needed him or would he still be meticulously counting out the steps in his route. |

Stop trolling. Alex could have used Fisher and his pursuer to chip that safety to give himself more time to throw right down the middle to the receiver that had his defender at his back. Alex Smith sucks as a QB, end of story.

JFC who cares. Even if he had miraculously completed it to Moeaki it would have been like a 5 yard gain.

I think they were trying to force the ball down the field in the last game, and thus we looked like shit. I'll take the AS from game one.

Bowe was clearly his first read.. and Alex reads defenses pre-snap to decide where the ball should go. I think the surprise was.. the CB in that case almost always backpedals.. the SS blitzes.. the ILB clearly wasn't sprinting out to fill the underneath zone... so the CB is expected to backpedal as the last line of defense... but the CB stayed put. Another point is this... looks like Bowe was to run a 10 yard hitch pattern. So while running, why didn't Bowe see that the CB wasn't giving a cushion and adjust his route shorter? Looks like Alex expected that, and should have. As for going through other reads, his next read would have been the TE over the middle... and it looks like the collapse on the right would have blocked his view or passing lane to even have a shot.. but that shot would have had to happen much sooner... which means, Alex would have had to give up on Bowe right away. |

So bottom line, he can't make reads. That's what I took from it.

Yeah, he locked on Bowe and when the Safety came he was waiting for Bowe to turn his head, which he did too late. The TE was a good option. Missed that opportunity.
What we don't know is if Bowe is supposed to be keeping an EYE open for that blitz so that he turns earlier...but regardless Alex should have realized that opened up the TE. |

My problem with the play is that we don't see Alex head look for another option or toss it either short or long of Bowe to avoid the sack. |
