LNBS: Can Alex Smith be "Fixed"?

Part of me wants to think so.

We saw flashes in 2013 of him testing defenses downfield and being a lot more than a game manager.

Then his OL got severely downgraded through 3 big losses in free agency (all 3 got overpaid) and his 2 guards weren't even nfl quality, let alone starter quality.

His receivers needed a major upgrade last offseason (they were an obvious team weakness) and other than adding Jason Avant late in the year and developing a promising rookie in Albert Wilson...not a whole lot was done to help provide Alex Smith with adequate weapons. Losing Avery to injury further weakened an already subpar unit.

Here's my question:

If they improve the OL and receivers...will we see Alex Smith come out of his shell again (like we saw flashes of in the second half of 2013)?

If he does, how far can this team go if the defense plays like it has and Dee Ford steps into Hali's shoes adequately?

With the OL being what it was (fault that wherever) the fact that they were able to do what they were on offense surprised me.
Zero TD's to a wide receiver. Dopey interceptions. Poor decision making.

Same with the WR spot.

With Bowe, Hali, Berry coming off the books, they'll have money. Fasano, Devito, the same.
Can't spend that kind of money on starting OL

Gotta afford backup qbs and DL

My interest will be piqued after we win a playoff game. I'll shut up after he hoists his first Lombardi. I'll sing the praises once he has one in each fist and another mounted on the hood of his car.

Whether you want to admit it or not, a lot of those 49ers fans would love to have him back right now. I know a bunch of them that do.

It seems like just yesterday Dane thought Alex and Matt Ryan were equals.

FTR I think this could have been a 12 or 13 win team with Matt Ryan last year.

This is not true at all. He had 18 passing TDs, just none of them were to WRs.

I was clearly wrong. While I don't think that Ryan is a HOFer at this point, I think the Chiefs would have won more games with Ryan.

The 2014 Chiefs offensive line is the only reason for my reservation.

None that I know. And most of the 49ers fans I know are engineers, so they aren't exactly dumb.

Alex's Smiths mobility was about the only thing that kept him alive this year.

Matt Ryan, behind our OL, woudln't have survived.
