Everyone going on about not having a decent back-up LISTEN TO THIS!!!

[LarryNJ]

he is being protected by a running game and a defense so he doesn't have to do too much.......He's an absolute fraud

Thanks to the SF defense. This year and last year combined Smith has 30 TD's 10 Ints, a completion percentage in the high 60's and rating around 100.

Have you actually watched Christian Ponder play?....He is a bum.....The Vikings reached for him big time when they drafted him in the top 15........But the Vikings will stick with Ponder no doubt in my mind since they spent such a high pick on him......So I don't know why you're asking why I said that?....lol So what the Vikings are 6-5....What does that exactly prove about Christian Ponder?......He also has the best RB in the game to take a ton of heat of him and he still makes some terrible decisions/throws.....

didn't realise he had to be joe montana in his second season.

alex smith is still a top 32 QB in the league though cant think off top of my head who he's better than

I think Smith is way better than the average perception. The guy has NEVER had a consistent offensive strategy to work with and when given the chance, prior to injury, he played very well.

I can think of 10-12 starting QB's who i'd sit down in place of him.

Sanchez
Tannehill
Vick
Hasslebeck
Palmer
Ponder
Gabbert
Weeden
Locker
Kolb
Skelton
Flynn
Rivers
Wilson
Fitzpatrick
Cassel
