LOL, dude's probably got the thickest skin in the NFL, if after what he went through in SF didn't break him, I don't think KC fans got a chance.
This is guy who:
-Was thrown in as a starter with absolutely no talent on his team, not at WR, not at OL, not at RB, literally started his first year for the worst team in the NFL.
-He ended up tearing his shoulder, eventually would needed season-ending injury, but ended up being bad-mouthed by his then coach and excoriated in the media by not being tough enough to play with a torn shoulder.
-He went through a different offensive coordinator every single year of his career for his first six seasons.
-He was coached by a guy in Mike Singletary who said that QB was "merely just another position out on the field."
-He took massive beatings behind one of the most porous OL's in football and kept getting back up on his feet.
-He got literally booed off the field at home and replaced by David Carr. Following that game, he came back to go on and play the best football of his career up until Jim Harbaugh was hired where he finally had a supportive head coach and amazingly enough, he thrived.
I don't think Alex Smith is much too concerned with the fans reactions towards him, if he plays his game, he'll win the fanbase over.
