Smith was sacked on one third of his pressures in 2012, which led the league by a wide margin.
Smith - 33.3% Cassel - 20.7% |

The Alexsexuals will attribute this to a poor Oline ans WRs not getting open. They can't fathom the idea that a QB has to see and avoid pressure, even free rushers as much as they can. Obviously, you can't always win, but Smith rarely does anything if there is pressure and his #1 read is covered. |

Im a 49er fan, I just want to give my point of view on Alex Smith.
Alex is a good quarterback, very underrated. 1) He's VERY smart In and outside of football (the guy had a 4.4 high school GPA, and got his college degree in 3 years). He's great at making changes at the line, one of the best in the league because he's so smart. He's very good at reading defenses and makes quick decisions. 2) This guy is efficient as heck. He had a 70% completion percentage before he lost his job due to an injury. That was the best in the league at that time, the highest this season was Manning and Ryan at 68%. 3) He's mobile. Very underrated athlete. Just look at this video. (I'm not allowed to post videos, see run vs NO Saints) The guy outran the whole saints defense. He's not Michael Vick or RG3 but he can run when needed. 4. He's clutch. (the whole NO Saints 4th quarter! Amazing performance) That's not it though. He had SEVEN 4th quarter comebacks/ game winning drives in 2011. The guy is clutch as hell. 5. He's accurate. Short range and mid range, he's one of the best. Deep ball is average due to his shoulder surgery. His arm was very good pre-surgery, now it's slightly above average. This doesn't mean he's a noodle arm, he can still throw it deep. Just look at Vernon Davis' highlights the last 4 years, his deep ball to Vernon was money every time, but he's obviously no gunslinger. 6. He doesn't turn the ball over. Alex always takes care of the ball. He won't lose you games from turnovers. Obviously every QB has their bad games, Alex had one vs the Giants. But outside of that game he threw 7 INTs in his last 22 games. 7. He has improved every single year. Especially these last 2 years. I thought Alex was starting to break out before he got hurt. He looked so damn good the previous 3 weeks. He was improving with Harbaugh, his last game before he was concussed he completed 18 of 19 and won offensive player of the week against a good Cardinals defense (at the time). He threw 62 TDs to 32 INTs in his last (about) 45 games. He is not a bad quarterback. Another thing is that who the heck else did you guys want? There's no better QB in free agency or the draft available this year. Geno Smith? lol.. bust written all over him. I think Alex will flourish under Reid, and will prove a lot of people wrong. PS, Alex's nickname is The Phoenix. :) |
A mobile QB who gets sacked alot is useless.

Your sig is also ignorant as hell. For many reasons that I don't know where to start. |
Colin Kaepernick was sacked once every 13 pass attempts.
Alex Smith was sacked once every 9 pass attempts. Totally the same! |

He's good for 1.1 TD passes in his last several years. |
Matt Moore and Alex Smith had almost identical PFF passer ratings in 2011.
He was also 4th in the league in percentage of attempts over 20 yards. Alex was 28th. The only thing I can see that Alex Smith has over Matt Moore is knowledge of the WCO. |
