POLL: Where do you stand on Alex Smith?

[Geraint]

Thought with the playoffs looming it would a good point to get an indication on where people are on this as it appears some opinions have changed and others have not. Would you rather see him keep winning with the team or play bad enough to be replaced next season?

This poll is a complete bait-fest. Why don't you just ask which of us wants to see Alex fail?

Anybody who wants him to perform bad can fuck off, youre not a fan of the 9ers.

And to anwer the question posed, I'm a little confused by the poll.

I'm a 100% behind Alex Smith. I want him to suceed. I want him to be MVP and win us a Superbowl.

With that said, I think Smith is one of the weaker parts of our team. I think he holds our offense back and would like to replace him if the right player was there. I was really hoping we would have an opportunity to get Robert Griffin III but he has played so well, he is probably out of our reach now, even if we tried to trade up for him.

I hope Alex wins the SB MVP so we can get at least a 2nd round DP for him.

agreed.

don't know who'd replace him and it doesn't have to be next season, but we can't become perenial SB contenders with Alex. well technically we could, but we'd need an even better surrounding cast, easier said than done.

he'll be a FA after this season, thus no ability to trade him.

in any case, we'll likely re-sign him to bridge another season? his contract will go past one season, but he'll be replaced soon as someone is better.

Duh, of course - thanks! I completely forgot he was on a one-year, he has been here so damn long I just assumed he had an eternal contract. You're absolutely right though, he will be signed as a bridge.

I am satisfied with the way he has played this year. He has been efficient and done almost everything asked of him. I support him as long as he remains with the team.
