Perennial Pro Bowler at LT. 2 time Pro Bowler at C. Everybody else sucks donkey balls. Two years in a row they picked a pass rusher with their first round pick, last year's pick is seeing some time, but this years pick hasn't done much. Don't know why they didn't bring Burress back this year. I'd trade my QB for just about any other QB in the league.

Alex Smith may be available.
 
For those that think the QB position isn't the most important position for football team please watch the Steelers.

Leftwich last week and Batch this week and I need some Pepto.

Steeler OL is in shambles too, and RBs were launching fumbles everywhere.

That was one of the ugliest games I've ever seen. Yikes.

3rd string RT, Back up LT, Back up LG...

8 fumbles (5 lost) and 3 INT.

The WORST game I think I've ever witnessed.
 
It looks like Kaepernick took control of the starting job today in New Orleans. He had another solid performance, and showed that he is capable of doing more than Alex Smith. Kaepernick's athleticism allows him to take less sacks, and he has a much stronger arm with more accuracy on the deep ball. I see Smith either being traded, or cut at the end of the season. The question now is what team with Alex Smith end up with next.
 
20 jazzfanz dollars says the Niners will need Alex again before the seasons over.

This.

I'm a total Alex Smith homer, but I really like what I've seen from Kaep. He has a good arm, good vision, and can scramble. As a 49ers fan, I wouldn't be disappointed to see him continue to do what he's done the last 2 games.

That being said, I don't believe I've seen the last of Alex the Niner.
 
I really don't think we'll see Alex Smith take another meaningful snap for the 49ers. They have to stay with Kaepernick at this point. Alex will definitely be leaving the 49ers after the season is over. If he's still on the roster come April 1st, the 49ers have to pay him a guaranteed $9 million. He'll either be cut or traded before then. I've been a big supporter of Alex on the 49ers since he was drafted, but I was low on patience just before Harbaugh arrived. I've been happy to see the success he's had with Harbaugh, but his limitations have still be present. I wish him all the best with his career moving forward, but it's time to see where Kaepernick can take this team.
 
No doubt, Kaep adds an explosiveness factor to the offense that Alex doesn't.

Just sayin, I bet Alex will be back before the season ends for one reason or another.

Call it a gut feeling.
