Why didn't he stay benched? And why didn't JH just say, see ya Alex, and start over?

JT O'Sullivan

Shaun Hill

Troy Smith

Colin Kaepernick

Just off the top of my head....none of these players NONE were put in because of injury (Colin was then turned out to be a better QB Alex was cleared and ready to go)

What say????

i love that there's a 49ers Alexbater named "opposition" LMAO

HE did thats why KC has him now!!! Next :clap:

WOW thats a new one...Prob just another ALEXSEXUAL and ALEXSCUSE disguised....ROFL

No he didn't. He made him his starter twice. Why?

Smith was the starter when Harbs took over, once Kaep stepped in Smith rode pine and held clipboard...there was no other starting QB even on the roster at all....which made Smith the obvious choice...once Kaep showed his skill set in the games, Smith was toast=benching #8....next :clap:

Shaun Hill- Alex had a serious shoulder injury, team was 2-1. Was out the rest of the year. But many pin that season on Alex somehow.
JTO-Alex had a wire sawing into his bone(same injury from year prior. Dr. Andrews admitted surgery didn't fix problem. Obviously when a wire was sawing through the bone) This is preseason, Alex had another surgery to fix the problem and it did. Was out all year.
Troy Smith- Alex had a concussion I think(some injury) and David Carr came in and couldn't even finish the game Alex had the lead in against the Panthers. This was game 5. Thus Troy. Alex retained his job back when healthy. This is the year Alex nearly beat the defending champion Saints in game two. Had a game tying 8, yes the two point conversion, point drive to tie 20 comeback against the SB champion Packers. Only problem was defense didn't let our offense back onto the field the last 7 minutes of the game. Since he's been back and started the team has been something like 24-8. Since that point I think Alex was one of the winningest Qb's in the NFL since he came back in for Troy.
CK-Concussion, had his team 6-2. Collin Kaepernick is just the better QB. CK made it to the SB. Had a chance to have A POSSIBLE elite, not good/sometimes great QB.

That's what I say. Not once due to poor play.

It should also be mentioned that the Troy Smith year was during Singletary's year, when it was clear Singletary had no clue what he was doing.

Why didn't JH go get a "good" QB when he first got there?

And would Smith have been benched without the injury?

Sure he did, he saw that ALEX SUCKED....

There was no one on the roster...hard to say, he would have been released this year due to cap issues and 8.5 million for a noodle arm and Kaep waiting patiently..

Jesus **** that is a lot of injuries. What a ****ing pussy he is. **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** ****

Odds he doesn't finnish the season? I bet he doesn't play a full 16 game season this year due to injury.

He did. He went after Matt hasselbeck who went to Titans because he thought Niners line was bad because Smith takes so many sacks.

Then Harbaugh traded up for Kaepernick.

The Harbaugh went after Peyton Manning.

Basically, Smith was a good filler while Harbaugh found his guy and Harbaugh took evrey opportunity to replace Smith.

Almost not quite..the shoulder was good to go, enter Shaun Hill...Sing benched Alex for boring play..JTO Mike Martz was OC and him and Nolin announced JTO starting ,, hey good try....Alex Smith was not concussed..

Colin hard to take him out is far and away a better QB with a higher ceiling than Alex....

So yes Alex was benched to poor play.
