no one can't tell me he looked confident last night staring at anything more than a 10-yard route in man-to-man. take vernon davis away, and my man turns gun shy.

"taking what the seahawks give him yadda yadda."

like you, i'm not saying make the switch to kaep now, but i just can't see that much more upside room to smith's secular potential past 2012, and it comes from mainly one thing: his conditioned, risk-averse mentality as a pro.

he really doesn't take chances. but that might be good enough for this team to reach the super bowl.

that said, i really don't care anymore that he was an abused animal up until harbaugh showed up. why should we wait for him to be in the completely perfect comfort zone? why do we have to wait for him to "grow"? why do we coddle him so much when things go wrong?

BUT we ARE 5-2, so until we start losing, "dats my quotaback" (c) elderado owens

(btw, hope all is well with your fam)
