"we cant run Reid's usual offense (throwing 75% of the time) so I guess we will run some gimmicky shit instead of just running the ball"

What's this?

(Semi-coherent) Football discussion on CP? Thank goodness the off season is coming to an end.

We had actual 49ers fans come here and tell us how injury prone Alex Smith was.

But nope, not injury prone. He's a stud and stuff. Carry on.

"Jamaal Charles is, by far, our best player, so it will all start there"

"we will get him to run for TD's and when they shut him down we will throw the ball to Dwayne in the middle routes and Jamaal underneath and deep"

"we're going to use the FB to create a devastating void in the defensive line during goal line & when they stuff us there we will throw it high to Baldwin or a TE for the points"

"if we can't devise 3rd and 3 schemes that utilize Dex in the slot and Jamaal in the flat, then we as a staff are ****ing morons that should drink a gallon of antifreeze and then take a separate plane that snaps in midair"

"with Dwayne being the mauler he is, when they double him too much we will use him to WR bubble screen Jamaal -- other teams aren't going to like that, much"

-me

And the SF Trainer had him hitting the weights hard on that shoulder pre-surgery. Double f-up.

Your tears will be as tasteless and bland as the exciting "new" slants and screens this offense will be running.

Turd-whacker.

there was talk that it was a concussion, or a headache. I never heard it confirmed. If someone did, kudos.
did not know that, I know we broke Tony Romos ribs....
Do you even LIFT BRO?
No. You had guys who hated Alex Smith come tell you that. He missed a couple games in 2010 for an injury, he missed all of 07, he didn't start immediately as a rookie, so that is some of the games you are saying hes missed. So essentially, if you don't factor in his shoulder injury, FOR INJURIES, HES MISSED ABOUT 4 GAMES in his career. Whoopie.

The question is. Is he healthy now? The answer is yes, so what the hell are you bitching about?

Why are people trying to rationalize WHY he's missed 25-30% of his games?

He's a Chief now. Ergo, he must be protected and coddled unto death.

PBJ

Wait, so are we positive about the Smith acquisition? Then, is it OK to have expectations for him and the team?

LMAO indeed

nah

the summary of what I said in 2010:

"Lets give him another chance, we have no one better"

for this crime I was labeled a ball washer and ridiculed

yes it turns out he never did shit but squandered his shot......but I still don't think I was wrong....we were stuck in the same situation as we are now......

If you search my posts from 2010, I don't think you will find anything beyond these things....

Even when matt was throwing all TD's and no picks, i never went full reerun "omg I love matt cassel" ..ever

Sadly, people must think 3,000/18 is a great year, based on all the knob slobbering he's gotten this offseason.

Green and Smith are both QB's who don't do well when they take a lot of beating.

I cringed when Green took off scrambling. I'll cringe if Smith runs the read option. I doubt seriously that we will see him on more than one or two designed running plays per game. Reid isn't stupid.
