Samra, I know this is a dumb argument, which means I shouldn’t write anything at all but, check out the 2000 draft: Carmazzi in the 3rd. Rattay in the 7th. And, I wasn’t being literal, what I meant was the organization picked 2 QB’s instead of him, and he was upset.

kerry collins took the Giants to the Super Bowl,but well they lost.Thing with alex is,we have a lot of money invested in him(5yr/47 million ,so we have to keep him around couple more yrs..his struggles are due to his poor mechanics..he has improve his mechanic(which i dont kno how he will)and bring his A game if he has any shot to be the Starting QB for the niners next season.

Yeah Smith FN sucks, these ppl here dont get it tho, doesnt matter, he’s done. We wont be seeing him starting any more Niners games you can take that to the bank.

Smith is a sub par to average qb much like a kerry collins IMO. He’ll be in the league for a long time, but he wont be starting anywhere thats for sure.

How many more games dose Smith need to start busting it out? I have news for you Smith lovers he has had three seasons and has consistently produces average numbers. Look at the other QB in NFL in the first season do extremly well (Romo, Jackson, Big Ben, etc..) the list goes on and on… As for Nolan “Players trust him” if you say so??…The Niners cannot pass up Marty Schottenheimer or Bill Cower if avaliable. Nolan had his chance he hired Hos in the first place you should take responsibility for that!

ill tell everyone the number one reason why nolan should stay at least another 2 years. THE PLAYERS TRUST HIM. not one player other than the great alex smith has said one bad thing about nolan and obviously they trust nolan a lot more than smith, and the way the last 2 games went, it looks like they trust shaun hill more than they trust smith, so i think we need to trade smith for a towel boy to wipe all the sweat off our new starting quarterbacks face

u kno wat we all should be worried about?our draft pick which is goin to the Pats.man patriots shud jus trade that pick back to us, they will be even more good with another good player ,they already have a team, a good one for next 5 yrs probably..i’m looking forward to the offseason,niners better sign some good FA and get a OC ,one who is cappable of play calling and can rejuvanate this team also lock him up for good some yrs ..Mr Nolan..i’m tied of this changes of OC every yr..Nolan shud use his damn brian..he shud want the better of his team not other teams.look at McCarthy in Greenbay(playoff bound 1-2 seed maybe) and Norv Turner san diego(playoff bound),thats one of the biggest reason this offense has struggled and especially Alex.

True Niner Fan… that report was investigated by Matt Maiocco, who is actually with the team pretty much every day, and it was found to be erroneous. No matter how they do it, they owe him more cash than any of us will ever see in our lifetimes.

We didn’t keep Peterson because he was coming off an ACL injury from the previous year and he wanted too much money. Yes, he’d doing really well in Seattle, but Manny Lawson fills the void he left. They are both Strong Side 3-4 OLBs. I personally like Lawson a lot better than Peterson at this point and I don’t see him as the type of guy who will put this franchise in a fincancial predicament. Andre Carter is another guy who wanted too mucuh money and he got paid too much money. He didn’t fit our scheme anyways. I think Lawson and Haralson will be a better outside duo than Peterson and Carter would have been. 99 and 98 haven’t even come close to reaching their potentials yet. And Jay Moore is a promising prospect waiting in the wings, when he comes back from injury.

Sorry, Alex haters, Smith is owed way too much money. No one else is going to trade for him and the Niners aren’t going to take the cap hit to release him and get nothing back. He was 2-1 this year before his shoulder got separated. This lousy season belongs to Nolan and Dilfer. Nolan rushed an injured player back too fast and then played a washed-up Dilfer instead of recognizing the talent on the end of the bench.

If the Niners are smart enough to sign Hill, he’ll be around to compete against Smith (and hopefully someone else comes in, too), but Smith isn’t going anywhere.

So Denise is talking about bringing in a general manager? How about bringing in someone to make gameday decisions and coach the offense? Mike Nolan has proven as a head coach that he’s a good defensive coordinator.
