Quote:The only problem with this analogy is that Alex Smith is a much better QB than Henne

He is... now. 

Smith's first 5 years in the league he was terrible, because the niners were terrible. As soon as they built up a team around him, and he got some continuity he played better.

 

However, in his first real successful year with the 9ers, he still played much like a game manager. His play didn't warrant him keeping the job when Kap stepped in.

But I'll admit, he played well for the Chiefs and upped his game when the D started to fall apart with injuries.

 

Shame for him so many of his early years were wasted on an overall bad team with like 7 different OCs
