Agree with you number-25, would be harsh in the extreme to bench Smith now. It's nice to know Kaepernick could be the starter as soon as next year, but surely Smith gets the chance to lead this team into the post-season again? If he fails, then we can start the controversy for real.

He is having a good season all told. 13 TDs, 5 ints, completing on 70% of his throws, and a rating of 104.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I don't think Alex Smith can lead the 49ers to a Super Bowl personally.

[sodhat]

I think he can, he was probably unlucky that the special teams failed at the worst time last year.

I didn't think he could take on Brees in a shootout and win in the post season - but he did it.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I'm not too impressed by him shredding the Saints D tbh.

I think he showed his true colours in the Giants game this year. I don't think the 49ers would beat Green Bay either

[GSC]

Because his defense came up with like 5 turnovers. Smiths a good stopgap, but hes not the guy.

[dancingweeman]

I don't think Smith needs to lead them to the Superbowl - the defence will do that. All Smith needs to do is make as few mistakes as possible, which he is doing at the moment.

The way the defence is playing at the moment, i'd back them to limit the Packers/Texans/Patriots to a score thats realistic for Smith to get.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I don't think the D is that amazing. The Rams did pretty well against it a week or tow back and the Giants just ran all over them. I think personally that the Packers/Patriots/Texans offences would put up 20+ points on them pretty easy.

[Pr4wn]

Who ever thought Brad Johnson was THE man in Tampa?

[GSC]

Texans can seal a postseason berth this week. Says it all about the AFC South.

[GSC]

In a week where the Saints play the 49ers and the Giants play the Packers, Panthers at Eagles ends up on MNF

[crazy_dave23]

Blockbuster!

[GSC]

Eagles-Cowboys on SNF the following week.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Yeah I'm not gonna stay up for MNF next week. What are the SNF/TNF games this week?

[GSC]

Giants Pack on SNF

TNF is Thanksgiving triple header

Texans @ Lions
Skins @ Cowboys
Pats @ Jets

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Ah forgot it was Thanksgiving! Quality, but I have a feeling the Jets might beat the Pats.

And I am so up for SNF

[GSC]

Meh, I still dont like TNF but at least it starts at 6

[GSC]

49ers can probably put the Saints down this week.

.567 Titans
.567 Jets
.567 Broncos

Strength of schedule for teams.

[mikeygnfl]

Regarding the 49ers, I would stick with Alex Smith for now then make a decision in the close/ pre-season. The last thing any team needs is to start 'rocking the boat' by chopping and changing at QB.

On SNF the Packers vs the Giants looks a very good match up this weekend.
