Alex is throwing the ball as Bowe makes his cut. If he waits to see who gets position, by then, it's generally too late. It is expected that the stronger WR who knows where he is going can get the inside spot over the weaker CB that doesn't know where he is going.

We agree that Wilson is better, just not on how much. |

Keep in mind sitting in the stands I can see the whole play develop and I can see WR's get off the ball, into their routes -- you guys at home can't see that very often. And, you have me pegged wrong -- I am one of the posters here that has at very least, stuck up for Smiff and this trade.

If it weren't for Schaub's reeruned interception, everyone would have been talking about how Russell Wilson threw that game away on his own terrible pick.
And I ****ing LOVE russ. alex smith should absolutely be in the top 15 and probably top ten of this list right now. These are just the QBs I HAVE WATCHED lose a game for their team this year and are ranked higher: 12. Michael Vick, Philadelphia Eagles 14. Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco 49ers 15. Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers 16. Eli Manning, New York Giants 17. Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens 18. Robert Griffin III, Washington Redskins 22. Matt Schaub, Houston Texans 24. Andy Dalton, Cincinnati Bengals I have to argue that Smith should be above every one of these guys, or eight spots higher. He hasn't cost his team a game, and all them have. That would put him at #17, which is still low, but I think much more fair. |

It's nice to see other fans sticking up for Alex, I think he's a top 15 QB in the league, not 25. Does he belong above Romo.... maybe but definetly above Vick and Eli if you're going off this year so far.

Wow, people are inferring a lot from a 4 game sample size. Hell, I'm surprised some of you didn't already put John Buck into the HOF after his April this year

I don't see any way you can infer that Russel Wilson and Cutler are top 10 QB's this year.

Tom Brady is 4-0 throwing to a bunch of guys 5 people couldn't name. I'm pretty sure his receivers are the guys from the Key and Peele football intro sketch. There's no way he's outside the top 3. If Manning wasn't having an all-time great stretch Brady should probably be #1. He still might be deserving of 1 despite of Manning's numbers.
