49ers have completed a trade with the Chiefs for Alex Smith, tho can't be official til March 12. Chiefs really made a commitment to Smith


Jay Glazer @JayGlazer
Deal has been agreed upon between Chiefs and 49ers. Compensation unclear but I'm told again Chiefs have made a clear commitment to Smith.

That tends to make a big difference.

Probably not one of the worst D's in the NFL like the Saints.

Yes, it's nothing. Brees was playing the best defense in football, Smith was playing the worst. Unlike you. I have some common sense.

Yep. The Saints were a year removed from losing to a 7-9 Seattle team in the play-offs. Their defense hasn't been very good for a while now.

Alex Smith vs Saints his WR's
Crabtree #1
Brett Swain(didn't even get picked up this year) #2
Joe Hastings/Tedd Ginn(one doesn't play, other is not a good WR in the least) #3

Vernon Davis play in that game, or are we cherry picking?

That's like saying all Trent Green had was Eddie Kennison and Johnny Morton.

Is VD a WR? 7 catches 180 yards.

Yep put up 180 yards and 2 touchdowns. 60% of Alex Smith's passing yards went to Davis.

Thus having a #2 receiver who doesn't even play in the league because he's that bad. Brett Swain started for us.

because they told him/trained him to stop forcing passes into picks and start taking 47485202824040234820 sacks

essentially "stop trying to make play, you arent a playmaker, you are what you are"

Yup, Cause you don't have to beat who ever is in front of you. You need to beat someone else.

And the best D in the league gave up how many 4-QRT TD's.

AS had 2 4-QRT scoring drives that put his team in the lead, going the length of field.

Sorry, I will take AS any time when the game is on the line, I watched him his entire career.

I think he is a late bloomer and He is going to be really good in KC.


That said, the Chiefs should draft Geno let him sit a couple of years and learn. Don't just throw him into the fire, I firmly believe that is why AS had such a ruff start, JFC what where you doing at 20.

What wrong with that.

No. But you were pretending like Smith didn't have shit to throw to by not including the TE. Take that shit elswhere, it won't fly here.

When Alex was benched for Kaep he had like 12 more sacks but like 60 less yards lost compared to Elites like Rodgers and Brees. Which hurt more? Losing 10-20 yards, or 3 on a sack?

All of this "gloom and doom" and Smith=Cassel is complete and utter garbage.

I dare not even suggest the possibility that perhaps Harbaugh is merely a good QB guy.

The thought has crossed my mind that Reid is every bit as capable of coaxing strong play out of QBs as Reid is, but my God, the backlash I'd get for that...

If Reid is even a reasonable facsimile of Harbaugh, and that seems like a conservative guess, there's no reason to expect this massive regression. Alex Smith can be a nice QB for us.

14 completions that game went to Vernon Davis and Frank Gore

so at least ten of those were "1st read covered I cant make that pass so Im going to check it down to my security blanket or take a sack"

Did he though? Who else did he have besides VD? Crabtree was getting double teamed all game, and 49ers had no one else to go to. Why did the 49ers add so many WR's last year?
