I think I've pretty much stopped paying attention to anything you say
are you saying that there is NO CHANCE that Alex Smith can have a pretty good/decent career? Alex Smith will probably never be Drew Brees or Eli Manning, but he can be decent, he has some pretty good tools, he needs to find a way to stay healthy though.
And with right coaching and some tuteledge from Warner(if he signs) he may be able to put things together, but he's not a lost cause yet.
Yes, yes I am. He'll have a solid career as one of the best perennial back-up quarterbacks to ever play the game, though. (Y)
Did you say the same thing about, Jake Delhome, Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, Marc Bulger, Matt Schaub, David Garrard?
On another note, i still think the vikings either need to get Harrison or Walker(if he becomes available) or trade for Boldin, to help out Rosenfels or trade up and get Maclin.
I also wish they would sign someone like Chris Simms(he's a FA isn't he) to compete with Rosenfels and Jackson. Although i believe Sage will be a pretty good QB atleast good enough i'm admittedly biased on that. And although i think T-Jack isn't as horrible as some make him out to be, he still needs to learn how to play under pressure.
You're serious?
Jake Delhomme and Kurt Warner were undrafted and not a single one of the guys you named were even a first day draft pick. Alex Smith was selected FIRST in the 2005 draft, and with that comes expectations. You can't even compare him with the other quarterbacks. Delhomme, Brady, Warner and Bulger were drafted late or weren't even drafted, and frankly, some of them weren't expected to be worth a shit. David Garrard has had mild success and in all honesty, Matt Schaub hasn't proven that he's worth a shit quite yet.
Alex Smith was hyped up so much as a great talent, and still shit the bed. He's been a complete and utter bust, and when he's not dealing with some sort of shoulder injury, he's riding the bench. Almost every single quarterback taken in 2005 has seen more success then Smith at some point or another. Jason Campbell, Aaron Rodgers, Kyle Orton, Derek Anderson, Dan Orlovsky, Ryan Fitzpatrick were all taken in 2005 with a few other busts. I'm not saying I think every single one of these guys are better then Smith, but look at all the chances the 49ers had to get something right.
I don't really know how to make it much more clear - Alex Smith is a failure, and will continue to be one. Maybe if the '9ers give him the boot, he might find himself in a better situation elsewhere, but beyond that, I see nothing even remotely inspiring in Smith's future. Sorry dawg.
