Exactly.
I was looking at Alex's career and since coming back from his injury in 2010 the last month of that season up until he was injured in 2012 and not including that game. Alex played 30 games including the playoffs and over that span his QB rating of 96.5. So looking at his most recent history Alex isn't bad at all. ( I was pissed about the trade when I heard so am I rationalizing the move? Maybe a little.) 31/11 Tds to ints. One TD per game. When he had his best full year in 2011 he followed it up by playing even better in 2012 until his injury and then being benched for Kapernick.
That's a pretty good stretch for a game manager type and probably what we can expect from Alex Smith.
