NFL.com news: Bills' Fitzpatrick to sign six-year extension worth up to $60 million
Averages to about $10M/year.
Kolb and Fitzpatrick haven't won squat yet and Kolb is not playing well.
Do you think Alex will get such a contract out of the 49ers and when? Before the playoffs? After the playoffs?
Alex is eventually probably going to lose a game in the playoffs possibly @ GB, you think this will have a negative effect on the contract extension?

One of the sure fire signs of the Apocolypse... Niner fans actually WANTING to resign Alex
Can we just give him league min and tell him he still owes us from his fat rookie contract he didnt deserve? Lol
HeLL naw get A QB..... Dixon, Vince Young, Matt Flynn, Kyle Orton Josh Jhonson all better then Smith
Let's see a little more consistency out of him for a longer period of time first. The game-winning TD pass aside, I did not like what I saw in Detroit.
The irony behind that is that Smith misread that coverage. According to Mangini, he read man to man when it was zone. If Delmas didn't kick a step outside on Walker it likely would've been a pick 6.
Well, yeah, if Delmas knew exactly where it was going to go and knew not to be drawn to Crabtree, he would have gone inside and picked it or at least stopped him short. But the play-call, read (even if wrong), and execution was effective as designed (not by luck or bad defense). If he had correctly read it as zone, the decision to throw it there is the same, as a throw to Crabtree would have been more risky, in terms of INT/INC (granted that it was still risky that Delanie wouldn't cross the plain). If he decided not to throw it to either because of the zone, who knows what happens? A sack?
Alex can't get credit for the defender choosing to go outside instead of inside - that should go to Harbaugh in drawing it up. True, Harbaugh when he calls a play doesn't know exactly where everyone will be, but he has an idea. I rewatched the play and it seems, ignoring the result, Delmas did what he could. It didn't seem he'd have time to go inside. The play no doubt was designed to draw him outside. It wasn't a material misread, just a misread - as it seems to me, despite the misread, everyone was where they were supposed to be. I may be giving Harbaugh too much credit, but that's how I see it. If Walker's knees hit the grass before crossing the plain, we would be blaming Smith or Harbaugh, so when it works, I choose to give them credit/benefit of the doubt. So it's not perfect, but I don't see it as the defender messing up so much as the defender falling for it the way we planned.
As for being a pick 6, I don't know, but it certainly would have ended the game.
Give him all of the credit you want. Give him a 100mil contract. Extend him for 10 more years. I couldn't care less. But let's not act as if that play couldn't have EASILY gone in a completely different direction. It was a nice throw, but a very poor read that would have ended badly had it not been for Louis Delmas' stupidity.
Do you disagree with that?
I doubt there will be a lot of interest for Smith outside of the 49ers. At least not for a starting job. Most teams will attribute Smith's success (if it continues) to Harbaugh and since they don't have Harbaugh, they will probably not be confident in Smith as a long term starting QB option. Plus Smith would probably choose to stay with the 49ers if the money is close so he can stay with Harbaugh. just sayin...

Are we just beliving Mangini that it was a misread or is there other evidence that it was a misread?

I'm not giving him any more credit than the throw, not asking to extend him. I was giving credit to the playcall for causing that stupidity, not just luck. As for the read, I'd leave it as a poor read and due to the playcall an inconsequential poor read. I still don't think Delmas could get there bgecause he did what we thought and hoped he'd do.
