    Alex Smith

    Anyone else thoroughly impressedwith the second half this guy had in last night's game?

    BTW, Frank Gore is #1 in the league for rushing yards.

    I am impressed with the progress he has made since last year. He still has a ways to go though.

    Frank Gore is a beast. I really hope he can stay healthy, I love watching him play.

      That 4th QTR was very impressive by Alex Smith and the 49ers. Norv Turner is a great coordinator to have for a young QB.

      One thing also, as far as I know (I could be wrong but I don't think so) Alex Smith is younger than Cutler, Leinart and Vince Young. So although he has played in a few more games than the other youngsters, he is still younger than them.

        By a few games, you mean about two more seasons?

          If Alex didn't come out 2 years ago, I honestly believe he would've been a Bronco instead of Cutler.

            Uhh no? Alex was a rookie at this time last year. He played about half of last season and was injured for a chunk of it.

              I agree with all of that.

                Yeah, #1 in the league in yards after having played one more game than any other runningback. That is going to change on Sunday. Both LT and LJ will pass him up again.

                It's a good thing Jay Cutler was a proven winner in college. Oh wait, nevermind.

                    Either way you look at it, the 49ers are a team in building mode. And from the looks of it it's not Cleveland Brown or Detroit Lion building mode.

                    They have something like 9 picks in the first 4 rounds of next years draft and have the MOST cap money of any team to spend. Although a lot of teams have money to spend as well.

                      oh, well excuse me.


                      I guess he's basically worth nothing now, right?

                      silly me...

                        Cutler has started two games, Alex Smith was the the starter all of last season, except for the games he was injured in. Not to mention, all of this year.

                        C'mon, you're a Bronco fan too, what's you're point?

                          He's saying Alex Smith COULDN'T have played 2 more seasons than Cutler.

                          Seeing as he hasn't been in the NFL for 2 seasons yet....

                            I said, ''ABOUT'' two seasons.

                            I wasn't trying to be mean, but it seemed like he was tryign to make a point that he's on the same level (experience-wise) and just performing better.

                            Considering he's a Bronco fan, I found that strange.

                              Actually, Alex Smith didn't even start until week 5 last year. Plus, he got injured in the 6th game of the season, I don't remember if he finished out that game where he got injured though. He missed 5 games after the game he was injured in.

                              Anyway, I'm a fan of Alex and think he has improved a lot. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he is younger than Leinart, Young, and Cutler. In addition, this is his first year in the system he is in. Last year the OC was McCarthy, which was a different scheme than Norv Turner's.

                              As for Gore, he is great.

                              Frank Gore, you heard it first
