get your popcorn ready. Josh is about to bench Alex. Josh is no joke in this offense.

Nice call on that one 23, you were totally right on. By the way this was just one of about 4 posts in the same blog in which you prognosticate the dethroning of Alex Smith’s starting job to Josh Johnson.

Classic.

you know that’s just not true. Jim/Baalke said one thing and then ended up being the 1st pair to scout Manning. They’re aggressive and sneaky, as they should be.

They’re gonna give Alex his chance to solidify himself, but they also are preparing for the worst as well. That’s what good leaders do. Execute solid strategy. Tolzien is new to the party, he’s earning stripes and putting in time. But Alex bought himself some time with the playoff wins and the swagger.

Tolzien has played his cards smart, he lived at the facility for awhile. He picks up his teammates at the airport, studies playbook 24/7, shows the command on the field. Your teammates notice these things, they see how young you are and start to do the math. Winners are built on their own. Scott is a good builder.

Let’s not forget that Jim found Scott 1st, when not many were paying attention.

How you like them apples?

CK is probably going to be good, but he’s behind in skill level as compared to many of his peers. He doesn’t command them yet.

Tolzien is already there, all he needs is the keys. Veterans aren’t going to come out and say things about a late round draft nobody, unless they stand behind it. Two great players, (Whitner & P. Rivers) have both called him “Brees”- like.

I see what I see, you go with your guy. Jim hasn’t named him 100%. The little I know about Jim, is you can’t really take his word. He’s a sneaky son of a……. I would hate to see Tolzien go elsewhere and then watch him carve defenses up all over NFL .

When your last QB is Andrew Luck, the bar is much HIGHER. One guy has no vision, the other prefers to run too much. Scott looks the most Montana like to me.

Ironic that one guy calls himself “balls” and the other one “latin heat”. It’s a sports blog for gods sakes not a chat room where Travolta recruits his male masseuses.

I won’t speak for LH, but there is no sexual intent behind my screen name. It may be immature/sophomoric, but it’s not sexually suggestive. More importantly, I certainly never make any sexual suggestions in my comments, which is something you cannot say. You (and jordan) cannot seem to resist throwing out homoerotic insults (“get off his jock,” crotch nuzzler, Alex’s girlfriend, etc.) at those who disagree with your misguided opinions. Look at your most recent comment. Where did that come from? I think you may be projecting here.

1. The 49ers cannot win with Smith as QB. Wrong
2. We’re a QB away from the playoffs! Wrong
3. Smith cannot beat teams like the Saints. Wrong
4. Smith will not be the 49ers’ QB in 2012. Wrong
5. Josh Johnson is already the No.2 QB. Wrong

Ouch. Jordan it’s time to get out of the prediction business bud.

His mindset has changed from 2010 and prior. That’s the biggest difference I saw in Smith last year. Prior to last season, he felt it was on him to make a play otherwise they had no chance to win. It led to some inopportune Ints and fumbles, but as soon as Harbaugh came in and convinced him that all he needed to do was play within the system, his mindset changed.

The single biggest difference in Alex Smith right now is his confidence, and that is built on his trust in the system and his Coaches confidence in him.

From Webster’s online dictionary (http://www.webster-dictionary.org/definition/racism):

1. racism – the prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically superior to members of other races
2. racism – discriminatory or abusive behavior towards members of another race

I eagerly await your cogent explanation of how my comment “borders on racism.” I neither asserted that anyone’s race made him/her superior or inferior nor discriminated/abused anyone because of his/her race.

Merely mentioning race ≠ racism.
