ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
Yeah? And Smith has been benched or replaced by rookies his entire career, and moved to 3 different teams for a reason...have you noticed the improved performance of the offenses he was replaced in?? Reid fleeced us again. He’s brilliant with quarterbacks and got Smith to look a LOT better than he really is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
That is what kills me, the team is 6-3 and a 2 game lead on the division which NOBODY saw coming, and we are talking about a QB change.

Eky from Lawrenceville, GA Hi, Beek! Big fan, first time contributor. Do you think Matt Ryan is the QB to get us over the hump? Despite always being paid as an elite QB, he always crumbles when put to the test. Occasionally he'll sparkle here and there, but he doesn't have the IT factor. It's even laughable when backups, second- and third-tier QBs, especially from AFC teams come to our home turf and beat us. Also, aside from Aaron Rodgers, he's winless against good QBs like Tom Brady and Ben Rothlisberger. Don't you think the over-a-decade experiment should come to an end? Matt: You’re kidding, right? You’re seriously calling for the end of the Matt Ryan era during a season in which he’s playing as good as (if not better than) his MVP season in 2016? And how can the winningest and most successful quarterback in Falcons history be labeled an experiment? Wow, guys. That’s two back-to-back head scratchers this morning. I’m glad you’re a fan of SFTB, Eky, and glad to have you writing in, but I’m going to totally disagree with you on this one. |

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
And relating to Matt Ryan, it took him a year to adjust to a new play caller and he's back to his MVP form this year. I'm not saying Smith = Ryan, but the fact remains it's not crazy to think Smith needs this season under his belt and can definitely improve next year in year 2 with Gruden. Adding more speed to the offense will help tremendously too.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
I don’t recall too many fans being upset over McVay leaving. Fans complained about his red zone play calling and doubted whether he was ready to be a HC at his age. But of course hindsight sure is 20/20.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
I don't think too many saw him coming. I think everyone knew Kyle Shanny had much more potential as a HC when he left.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
This thread has turned into a very circular conversation.

Re: ALEX SMITH and moving forward.
In my opinion, Alex Smith is one of the worse qbs in the league and he's going to prove it today. This man is horrible and should be benched after we get beat down today. If I'm wrong I'll be happy to apologize.
