The 7th ranked QB, no matter who you think it is, will have a great deep ball. Okay Smith isn’t trash tier. He’s better than every backup in the league at least and can manage a SB contending team to a playoff win or two. But he is not worth what we invested into him and he isn’t anywhere near as good as Cousins. I consider him average out of all the QBs in the NFL. Yep you are right, I am just still pissed at the fact we traded Fuller for him. So trash tier is def over exaggeration, but he is not a QB any team should trust to win games or even lead a team successfully. He looks good and his wife is hot, but that is about all he has going for him. EDIT: Oh and he is super rich... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way they were going to stay away when things get rocky. The several years war of Alex Smith has left some serious scarring that won't ever die. I'm sorry that this had to be brought to your forum, and it likely gets worse before better. I admit that I have and will be called an Alex apologist, but much like SIP stated a day or so ago, I really embrace the concept of football being a TEAM game. I also said and stand by my words that Alex Smith is consistent. He won't carry the team when they are failing all around him. He can be frustrating, but he also will typically be very low on the list of reasons for why the team loses. Alex is my boy, but I'm going to keep things honest in the criticisms I see. As opposed to that KC forum that has almost no moderation, this place will not become the cesspool that they.. that we.. made it to be there. Go Skins!

Something tells me that when we part with Smith in a few years, we wont have the foresight and scouting aptitude to get somebody in house that's good enough to take over. We'll go into the offseason not knowing who the QB will be. Andy Reid has fleeced us twice with QBs. Amazing that we keep falling for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrell Green Fan Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Yeah let's slow down a bit on the Alex bashing. I'm a Kirk guy and you will never convince me it was a good move to let him walk. But we were lucky to get a QB at least this good, we could very well have gone into the season with Tyrod Taylor or worse. But it still sucks that our inept team put us in this position. Alex Smith is who he is and as I said in another thread down 2 scores late we have no hope, think the Colts fans would have felt the same had the score been reversed? As someone put it Bruce traded for a 34 year old QB who put us in a win now position without a roster able to contend now. The future appears hopeless.

He’s played 2 games with his only other team and won one of them, tied the other on the road in GB against Rodgers with a FG kicker that got cut today for missing so many pivotal kicks. Dude led his team back and threw for 425 and 4 touchdowns in a game where his defense wasn’t so hot....in a new system with new weapons. Perhaps the time will come at some point this season where you won’t look bitter when sharing your opinion on Kirk but this isn’t the week for that. I’m sure Cousins will have a stinker at some point, perhaps even the same week where Alex and the Skins play well. Save your material for then if it happens.

Blue Ridger Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Don't panic on Smith. He'll be fine. We're set at QB for the foreseeable future. Need a couple more pieces and we'll be unstoppable. Could be worse - could be the Giants, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont really get the entire argument in all honesty. I mean the guy made it perfectly clear that he didnt want to be here. (Not that I can blame him. Who wants to play for this clown show of a franchise) But it really is a non point as far as arguing about it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I embraced that name happily, they changed it to the Vag, yes. The mods there were passionate Smith-haters. They gradually quarantined and eventually banned all but two of the Alex fans on questionable charges. I am the last remaining there that is free to post anywhere, at least for now. Why am I the last? Because the mods always struggled to boot me. I'm actually a decent, fair person. That place has quite a mob mentality and bully effect to anyone that doesn't match what they want. They tell people, mods do it as well, to die in an aids fire, or to sodomize yourself with a rusty bat, etc. They will even talk about how unfortunate your children must be. There are very few things there that are deemed out of bounds. Anyway, I just intended to answer your question. I actually HATE shifting the topic, and especially hate shifting it on me. So, that's it for me. Alex Smith. May he play better, and not lose trust downfield with his targets. Even if they don't yet deserve his trust, he has to open up his game. Peace.

Veryoldschool Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 It looks like Alex came with message board baggage, some pro-Alex guys and anti-Alex guys. As if our own characters weren't enough color on the board. I think my Ignore list will be getting some additions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
