Just posting his TD-INT ratio isn't telling the whole story. He had 67.1 compl %, threw for 3,502 yds, had a 91.2 QB Rating and ran for 5 TDs... He was also ranked #11 in ESPNs Total QBR stat. I'm not a fan of QBR but it is worth mentioning.
If you want to say Alex Smith isn't elite or a top tier QB, I'll agree with you. But where some of you who criticize him get out of hand is when you say he sucks. He does not. It's not even debatable. He's an average QB and a good game manager.
He's fine until we find something better. HOF QBs don't grow on trees if they did every team would have one. There is no need to panic and act like QB is a desperate need on this team and that we have to get rid of Alex Smith right away. A lot of teams who panic and get desperate when it comes to QB position end up making really bad mistakes. Reid or Dorsey are not going to do that which is why Alex Smith will probably be our starter next season unless a better option is out there and right now I don't see one.
