Alex Smith

The difference will be at the quarterback position. Between Alex Smith and David Garrard, the quarterback that makes the least mistakes will walk away with the win. To me, that means a Jaguars victory as

They gave up only 216 yards of offense, sacked Alex Smith twice and intercepted one pass. Tommie Harris had a solid game after being ejected early against the Cardinals.  When did the Bears begin to master the screen pass? I remember this offense never could get this play right. They must be like, practicing or something. What a novel idea. While Forte didn’t rush well, he did catch 8 passes for 120 yards, mostly off of screen passes. Greg Olsen and Devin Hester added another 7 receptions each.

They’re even being gouged by the run. Still, Niners QB Alex Smith can hurl interceptions with the worst of them, so I doubt another total domination is in the books.

Chicago’s offense has struggled to move the football as of late, and is has nothing to do with Jay Cutler. The offensive line has committed penalties, given up sacks, and failed to open any running lanes. If the Bears win this game, it’s because Olin Kreutz and the gang decided not to screw up for a day. Primetime hasn’t been kind to the Bears this season, so they need to start fast in order to leave the Bay area with a win. Getting out in front of the Niners will force them to decrease running back Frank Gore’s touches. Since Gore is their best player, I’d say getting the ball out of his hands is a solid idea.

They benched Shaun Hill at halftime and brought in former number one pick Alex Smith, who tossed three TD’s to Vernon Davis (who is a beast) to close the gap. Smith will start next week. Also a storyline was Michael Crabtree’s insertion into the starting line-up, catching five passes for 56 yards. It may not sound like a lot, but for someone that has only been with the team a few weeks, it’s impressive.

Look at Alex Smith; I think he's doing just fine with his $50 mil. contract. Would he really want to take the risk of going up against the '05 defenses of Auburn or USC? I think not. At least, I wouldn't. I'd take the money and run!

However, Alex Smith, the #1 draft pick in 2005, still holds the QB1 spot despite talent and without any indication that he actually knows what he’s doing. The 49ers are a franchise that had the legendary Joe Montana and the equally impressive Steve Young, but now it must deal with a young prima dona in
