CP loves to treat the symptom while at times ignoring the disease.
Since everyone wants to be cool and bash the lame ass QB we have, we might want to look just a little deeper and discuss the HC that hand selected him to be the QB of this team.
We aren't going anywhere with Reid's preparations and game plans. His play calling is pathetic and predictable. His tendency's to remove the WRs from the game plan is inexcusable.
Until we get rid of Reid, we are stuck with Smith... [Reply]
Think of the family who owns the team then rethink your comments. When it gets bad enough (when it looks like the easy money might be affected) the family will make a move. Until then, this is a spoiled little rich kid's play-toy that pays him millions upon millions of spending money and a nationwide name for the family even if they tank.
Expect Andy's replacement to be another re-tread Andy who has some past name recognition. [Reply]

His last 6 carries were for:
1, 3, 2, 2, 1 and 0 yards.
Teams are putting all their players in the box and we have no answer. It is exactly the pattern that happened when Herm was running the offense and LJ became less and less effective. You have to have a downfield component of your passing game to keep defenses honest. [Reply]
And I'll add that when Hunt/Dorsey/Reid lost what they lost last year and brought-in nothing effective to replace those gaps, we all knew we were looking at a crisis being managed by a group of goons. [Reply]

Alex Smith has attempted 15 passes of 20 yards or more this season.
I was joking around with approximately .20 left that Andy would call a screen pass. Wasn't so funny when it actually happended a couple seconds later. [Reply]
