19-5-1 begs to differ with you. 6 come from behind victories, including over coming a 17 point deficit on the road in 2011 at Philly, begs to differ with you. Scoring not one, but two tds in the last 4 minutes of the Divisional Round playoffs against the Saints, begs to differ with you. Going ahead in the 3rd quarter of the Nfccg by throwing a strike between two defenders in the NFCCG, begs to differ with you. Driving your team down to get the game into over time with a Field goal, in the NFCCG, begs to differ with you.
I can play this game all day long. Alex Smith, is NOT an elite qb. He can not carry a team for an entire season like Aaron Rodgers. But to prop him up like him and Matt Cassel can be said in the same breathe and draw a slight comparison, is a ****ing joke. Alex Smith is a good starting qb if you don't have a better option. That's all he is, and I can accept that. There is no reason the Chiefs, with the roster they have built, cant win WITH Alex Smith. No, they can not win BECAUSE of Alex Smith, but Alex Smith has proven to be clutch, and Alex Smith has been getting better for the past three years. No reason to think he is all of a sudden going to become the shit bag he was before Harbaugh....that's just stupid talk.
