Alex was having a good season, until a concussion knocked him out, and the rest is history. Obviously Jim Harbaugh wanted to replace him with Colin Kapernick, and waited for an injury to insert him. Mr. Harbaugh took the cowardly way out, instead of just benching Alex for Colin, he waited for an injury.
The 49ers should do Smith a favor and release him. I doubt any team will want to pay his $8 million dollar salary, and give up a draft pick. If San Fran doesn't release him, I doubt Alex would be a good teammate and agree to stay. So lets say he gets released, where should he go.
He should beg his agent and try to go to the Kansas City Chiefs. Andy Reid would do magic for his career. Andy would get a QB to run his team now, until he finds his quarterback. Who knows, if he does that well, Andy just may keep him. I think Alex was finally turning the corner into being a good quarter, not an elite quarterback, but a good quarterback. Lets be honest, there is small number of elite quarterbacks, but a larger number of good quarterbacks. I think people confuse the two groups, including grouping too many good quarterbacks into the elite company. Alex does a great job on not turning the ball over, and I could see the Chiefs easily winning 10 games with Alex.
Now for Matt Flynn. He must be thinking I got stuck behind Aaron Rodgers, and beaten out by Russell Wilson who looks great. I have the worst luck. Cheer up Mr. Flynn, someone should trade for you, and that team should be the New York Jets.
The Jets just hired John Idzik as their General Manager. John came over from Seattle, and was their contract guy. That's right, he did the Flynn contract. John should contact Seattle and trade for Matt Flynn. Rex would have a game manager for his defensive team, but a talented QB who can get the Jets to the playoffs. Playing in New York would give Matt the attention I think he wants. His salary is only 7 million, and a third or fourth round draft pick would be the only compensation. Not a bad gamble. Russell Wilson beat out Flynn, and it was a close completion, I believe Matt will be a fine quarterback.
