FTR- I have never claimed AS is elite yadayada, just that he is a huge improvement for the team. Also, I think the term "game manager" is being tossed around this forum quite a bit -- Tom Brady is a game manager -- Peyton, the game has evolved into a HC/OC piloting the QB on the field via the speaker in helmet. It's been this way since Walsh established it -- that style, along with the WCO system has become the norm. So, they are all pretty much game managers, just following the orders of the voice in the helmet.
Not that you overuse it, but it seems a bit of the go to here lately.

Do you know what is never talked about in reference to Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Peyton Manning. They have run the same System their entire Careers. People don't want to hear that, but that helps. Consistency is key to this thing. The systems with San Francisco, and KC are close enough in the basic structure, that it wont be that different for Alex Smith to run. I think that is also going to help him. Might take a little bit to adjust to the personnel in receivers, as in, San Francisco his best player was a tight end, but now its a Receiver, but I don't expect a huge drop off in consistency.....
