It should have been

"Keep your head up. We'll buy you some wide receivers, and an offensive lineman or two, next year."

That won't be enough.

Smith is a limited QB, but he's better than the detractors give him credit for. Shitty OL play plus shitty WR play is impossible to overcome on any sort of consistent basis.

If your goal is to consistently win 9 games and get a playoff berth twice every three years then sure. Four new starters at OL and WR.

Alex Smith might get you to the playoffs with that but hes not winning once he gets there.

Alex Smith was 2 lousy ST plays from getting a team to the Super Bowl, so your argument has already been proven wrong.

... And then he got benched, and the 49ers went to the SB.

Also you gloss over how bad Smith was on converting 3rd downs... Which is what we've seen in three consecutive weeks now..

That doesn't validate your argument.

Almost no niner fan's were panning for smith to stay there is a reason for that they were glad to see that dumpster fire go.

Alex was also horrible in that game, apart from two nice throws to Vernon Davis early in the game. His inability to move the chains, find open receivers, or convert third downs was a large reason the game was close to begin with. Yes, our pal Kyle Williams pissed the game away, but better QB play would have made those mistakes insignificant......

Aaron Rodgers Matt Ryan Tom Brady all looked like crap against the Giants in the playoffs.

I know what he meant. He was trying to take the focus off of the fact that his argument has already been proven wrong, and trying to shift the argument.

And the "better QB play would have made those mistakes insignificant" argument is incredibly stupid, in light of how that postseason played out.

That excuse doesn't fly.

Has to learn to throw the ball away.
Too many tipped passes.
Terrible throw out a critical third down following a defensive turnover

Smith is hardly the man to blame for today. Lots of other culprits. But he did not play well at all today and he needed to

I'm not sure if it has more to do with Smith or Reid but our passes are telegraphed all to shit.

It's going to be a slant, hitch or some kind of bullshit check down to a back in the flats. That's what it always ****ing is. It's maddening.

And if it's not one of those, Alex doesn't feel comfortable making the throw so he tucks it and stares down the pass rush until he's on his back.. Or runs to the sidelines for a 2 yard loss, which is exactly like a ****ing sack.

He's just a ****ing pussy, honestly.

Can't disagree at all

Spoiler!

That's the reason that hate to listen to Alex's voice, because he sounds like a pillowbiter when he's being interviewed
