The fanbase would rather perennially go 9-7 than have a couple of 5-11/7-9 years while developing their own quarterback.

I like Alex Smith, but the dude is about to turn 30 and because of that the window to win it all with him isn't as big as if you draft a kid at 21 and develop him for a couple years.

Anyone saying Smith needs to be extended is saying they think Smith can take us to the Super Bowl. Otherwise why would you extend him? You don't extend him to make us average or competitive.

So, instead of Smith, what QB plan would've worked better?[/b]

And, finally, the 49ers are up and running. They were really good last year and the year before. You upset the Chiefs didn't go from 2-14 to a SB team?

I think the 49ers had two good QBs. JH made a decision, and no one can say it was a bad one. It worked out well.

You seem to think you know more than the Chiefs FO. Who would've been the Chiefs QB this year had you made the call?

The trade and moving on I have a problem. You have to choose A or B in the salary cap era.

The call mid season I have a problem with. 'Hot hand BS'.
Harbuagh got lucky Kaep didn't come back to earth until year 2.

He was desperate because the defense was falling back from great to good.
It was a panic move.

This year he is lucky the Defense bounced back to being Great to hide the under 200 YPG the 49ers have been since week 2.

Wonder what Tribal Warfare has to say about Brady not being able to overcome the Patriots bad defense.

He's won 3 or 4 games on the road in the playoffs, if that isn't good, then I don't know what is. Every now and then a game manager type like a Dilfer or a Brad Johnson makes it into the Superbowl because their team catches fire and wins in spite of them. Nobody does that twice, he's a guy who has carried that team in the playoffs, two years in a row now. People may not like him, nobody doubts his talent though. If he does well against Seattle, not sure how people can argue against him.
