He also put up 34 points in the Super Bowl, 28 in the AFCCG.

Yesterday, Alex Smith led an offense that engineered a grand total of 14 points on its own. He threw a crucial, bad interception, and he failed at the end of the game (on a drive in which his "awful" receivers bailed him out at least 3x with extra-effort catches).

I'm not going to heap praise on him for that. His offense was subpar against a defense that hasn't been that good and was again down several key defenders.

I wish he had played as well in every game as he did against San Diego. Wish we were seeing that consistency. We're not.

Which tracks with what the career stats and analysis of them tells us about Alex Smith as an NFL QB.

Baaaahahaha. Excuses.

Well in the AFCCG 7 points - off a short field after Turnover does that count?

Superbowl 7 points- from Kickoff return (So Flacco gets 7 and not Alex in your eyes)

How do you figure 14 points?

I don't know if he can do it consistently... but the funny thing is Alex Smith's playoff win was a shootout against Drew Brees the year he set the passing record, and his offense scored 35 a game.

Defense gave us a 22-yard field on the other TD.

A crucial int in the first 5 minutes of the game? Nah. It sucked, but it happens.

The guy threw the ball downfield yesterday, was accurate and made throws into tight windows. 2 for 4 int he redone was killer, but you absolutely can't put yesterday's offensive struggles on Alex smith.

Again, I realize you don't like the guy and likely never will, but he was absolutely good enough yesterday to win. He was every bit as good yesterday as he was agains San Diego. Those tough bail out catches were throws into tight windows were a wr makes a good play. Alex does it, great play by the wr. Manning does it, great throw in a tight window.

Jesus...you are worse than Wendler with this bullshit. And it is bullshit.

If you are so ****ing against Smith as our QB, tell me right now who we should have who is better. Right now.

Tell me who we are going to draft or pick up in free agency for the 2014 season who is better. Do it. Do it now.

FYP..but whatever. I get your point.

So Flacco on a short field is cool and not Smith? What a clown

Extra effort catches? They were catches on decent throws. Smith bailed his receivers out -- they dropped too many passes in the final 2 drives, and yet we managed to keep getting first downs. Your take is completely unreasonable.

Also, the offense scored 21 points. YOu can't just erase points because it was a shorter field.

Yup but some people will never get this. You can when it comes to Alex Smith not anyone else.

I'm sorry I just don't get you guys.

AS should and I think can play better, but he is not the problem with this team right now.

Not even close.

No one is erasing TD. But Alex doesn't get credit for a TD on a 20-yard drive. The defense gifted the offense that field position.
