Alex Smith in attempts 31-40 in games: 17/26, 7.19 YPA, 3 TDs, 1 INT, 109 rating. So in other words, he’s not getting worse the more he throws… he’s getting better.
Smith on 3rd and 9+ yards: 9/15, 10.1 YPA, 1 TD, 0 INT, 116.3 rating.
Smith in the 4th quarter: 16/22, 7.86 YPA, 2 TDs, 0 INTs, 125.8 rating.

Nobody ever said his arm would wear down after throwing the ball 30 times. The point was the more he was asked to do the lower his numbers would be, specifically qb rating and it is lower by about 10% compared to last year when he had less attempts per game. I thought it would go down about 20% with 35+ attempts so 10% is acceptable if he can maintain that over the course of the season.
