Alex Smith still stands as the Starting Quarterback for the 49ers. I used to think that they should bench him but as i did some research, clearly I was wrong.
Alex Smith could become a legend, he is tall and can hold himself well, even when there is a severe pass rush, has good arm strength and accuracy.
But from my experience the coaches weren't a big support for him.
He was the top draft pick and was considered to become a great. He was phenomenal in college or he never would have been drafted #1. So he has been great in the past!
He was a rookie for the 49ers in season 05/06 but didn't have a great, talented coach who knew how to bring along a young quarterback.
He would make a mistake and instead of encouraging him, Mike Nolan did the complete opposite.
And from then on it affected him on everything. Oh, and then it got out of hand with the whole stadium booing him. It affected his confidence and he started second guessing himself.
Now here's a Question: do you think you could possibly, even get close to playing well with a whole stadium booing you? (think about it).
Throughout the years he had several different coaches and a new offensive coordinator each year, but made none of them were good enough or there long enough to make a difference. As soon as he faltered, they treated him like he was the worse thing in the world and this did NOTHING to help him with his career.
Alex has a final shot at being a great quarterback. Jim Harbaugh is known as a great quarterback mentor, and was one himself at the highest level. He knows that Alex has talent, and may finally be the coach that gives him the confidence, playbook, and support to be a great quarterback. I'm willing to give him a chance, because if it works the Niners have a real shot at being a great team. Can't wait to see it play out next season!
And hoping Alex Smith will get his super power back and confidence!!!
