Really? Alex Smith went 7/8 with a td pass in the second half. The one incompletion, being the horrific INT in the redzone where Moss was open for about 3 days.
But, what changed was they started throwing over the middle backing up the lbs, which opened up the running lanes. That's called COACHING.
To say that Alex had nothing to do with a 13-6 win, when he threw the only td of the game is a bit much I think.
But to each their own.
