He's low on everything...
You don’t like Alex as a QB?
He's low on everything...
So according to your logic from this very thread, since you had to go back a decade to show he was "good" you make my point for me that he is not...Well when people are "shocked " o might think he's quite good the only explanation is they're basing that belief off of 10+ years ago because since 09 he's been a solid to very good NFL QB
No, I didn't say that at all. Smith is OK. My point is he isn't as good as some are making him out to be. For example he isn't as good as Cousins. I said he was "low on everything" because he is. He is your prototypical drive the bus guy. He makes very few poor plays that can lose you a game and he makes very few elite plays that can win you a game. He is as vanilla as they come. Put him in the right spot and he is good. Put him in the wrong spot and he is not going to be very good. He has limitations that most "good" QBs don't, but he doesn't lose games for you with that gunslinger mentality either.You don’t like Alex as a QB?

Alex Smith has been anywhere from good to very good since 2009. To pretend otherwise is wrong . I don't need to go back 10 years . He's been good FOR 10 years mSo according to your logic from this very thread, since you had to go back a decade to show he was "good" you make my point for me that he is not...
stop it already, Romo is a broadcaster...So what do make of his comparison to Dak or Dak to him??
Looks like we'll have to agree to disagree.He's been far better than not bad especially over the past 5-6 yeaes
Dak hasn't been all that impressive this season so if you think this comparison helps prop up the Smith love, I say you missed the mark.So what do make of his comparison to Dak or Dak to him??

Jarntts description of Alex Smith could very well be the same thing said for Dak.
There's nothing you can point to over the past decade which would prove me wrong. If you think Smith is very good then you're basing it on nothing other than absurdities like "the eye test "Looks like we'll have to agree to disagree.
OK, but Jarntt is on record as saying Dak hasn't been all that great after his rookie season and has to improve.
So again I don't see the Dak/Smith comparison defeating his side of the argument.
OK, if your trying to say he's good not great, comparing to Smith is the way to do it.If anything, I’m trying to boost Dak up.
My eyes, tell me he's a good QB. Great QB's have the ability to go out and carry the team to wins, Smith doesn't do that.There's nothing you can point to over the past decade which would prove me wrong.

I can agree. But again Not Bad doesn't equal great. It also doesn't mean Smith cannot be a SB winning QBI think Daks ceiling is Smith. To me, that’s not bad at all.
