General wins are a team stat. The most marginal NFL starting QB in the game can win with a great defense and special teams against bad and mediocre opponents, if he protects the football.
The 2-30-1 stat adds some context and predictors to what Alex Smith-piloted offenses do when the opposing team puts up even a slightly above-average offensive performance.
Even if you limit it to just the past 3 years - when Alex Smith has had good teams around him - he's merely 2-6-1 in those games, with the two wins coming against teams with bad defenses (2011 Rams and 2011 Saints).
