:harumph:

Alex has three concussions now, all in the last four years (2012 and two this year now)

He is at high risk for further concussions due to his age and playing style. He will be more and more likely to take big hits because he's clearly slowing down now.

Alex isn't done, but he's very, very close to being done.

Foles is a relative unknown with a much larger chance of being a productive QB for the next five years for this team. You need to see what you have in him to make your decision: go with Foles, or go after a guy in the draft.

Nick Foles should be the starter. You have nothing to lose, because Alex is almost done, and the offense sucks with him anyway.

As I've said all along...we're just wasting time with Alex Smith.

GoFoles.

WOW you are a special kind.

Yes sir. I'm not a bandwagner like someone who shall not be named lol. Alex is that good dude you can just easily root for due to circumstances , but I enjoy strong play from the QB and a QB with fire. Alex will get his chance back under center and he needs to show that fire he did earlier. KC is starting to gel and finally using Hill - great playmaker.

When did he get his first one this year? He only had one in this game.

Welcome home. Welcome home.

That's horrible reasoning. KC are playoff bound with Alex at the helm.

The guy is a worthless piece of scum.

He had one concussion, came back in, and clearly got another one.

We love surprises!

What sample size does Foles have? How many times has Smith been in the playoffs? Shut the **** up

John Dorsey deserves much more credit than he gets around here for his drafting ability. I've got a friend and colleague who is absolutely nuts for the 9ers. She makes very good money and flies into San Fran for every game from Vegas. Season tickets, the whole nine yards. May you rid your franchise of Jed York and Trent Baalke as fast as possible. I have no hate for the 9ers on any level. Get back to kicking the shit out of my hometown team, the Seattle Seahawks as quickly as possible. ;)

Nick Foles does hold the record for most TD passes in a game with 7.

Like dumbass vs. smartass!!!

He's already here. I unbanned Clay from this thread.

FOLES looks and throws the ball DOWNFIELD. More of that shit please!!!!

Smith will be out multiple weeks from these two hits IMO.

Why are you even here

What joy will it be for you to go back with your tail between your legs to the NiNERS forums when they get a good team going in a couple years...

Don't you wanna hang out there to experience the full ride?

LOL just shut the fu*k up already

Actually I don't think they are.

If you sit him out a couple weeks, put him back in, he might not be the same guy. He's certainly going to start shying away from more hits, and for a guy who already loved running from clean pockets like his wife was splayed naked and wet on the sideline, that's really bad.

The offense was bad with Alex this year. They were 23rd in offensive scoring, and against one of the most butt-ugly defenses in the NFL today he generated three points other than the heavily defense-assisted score.

You can be bad with Alex and hope the D carries you, or put in Foles and hope for offensive improvement and maybe something really special. At the very LEAST you answer the question of your QB strategy going forward.

Or just stick with scrambled egg and playoff losses, and maybe even losing a playoff spot since it's uncertain how he'll perform after getting his head crushed twice.

#GayforNickay

He came in after that first one and was fine. Just STFU already


I'm glad to see Foles moving forward though because we know what Smith is.

In comparison to Baalke, Dorsey is a HOF level exec. lol I wouldn't spend a dime on the niners if I was her, York ****ed the team over 20x over. Seahags have our number.. they took our playstyle (defensively) drafting methods.. snagged our cut players.. and execute at a higher level. KC is one of my preferred teams to watch in the AFC.

Nick Dynamite is this era's version of Rich Gannon. Only it didn't take 10 years to get him back in the game. He could be a 10 year starter for us. Or Alex could come back next week, sling it all over the place and we'll beat a really bad Jags team. Either way?

wbf

Funny you should mention that. She's not a bandwagon type fan, but she HATES Baalke and York. Won't spend another dime until they're gone.

You act like I cant browse more than one forum a day, jackass. STFU

Never been on a board where so many of their members need dey boot boots beat down.

I haven't seen a Chiefs offense this exciting since the Green era.

Bombs all over the place.

It's truly amazing, I've been a Chiefs fan for almost fifty years, and Clay is the only person in that time that makes me wish he never followed the team.

It was for sure a breath of fresh air. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. A chiefs QB willing to throw the ball to an open receiver downfield.

95% of this board loves what Dorsey is doing. People make that clear all the time. Not sure what else can be done. It's a lot easier to build threads discussing things that need to change. How many "Dorsey is amazing" threads do we need to make?

Was he? He proved to be, immediately, highly susceptible to another concussion.

The offense looked like it wasn't going to score again before Gaines got that pick.

I'm not sure we'll ever see Alex Smith return to his below average playoff form ever again.

You must've missed last weeks game.

He got his head shoved into the turf. Before that he threw an absolute dime to Maclin for the TD. You're just a shit troll that mods feel sorry for

lol ROFL

Today is a happy occasion. Let us not bicker and argue about the QB position. A ray of hope has shone through the clouds.

and all this time i thought it was me :D


btw - you're right, which is why the mods should have perma banned every clayton mult. Someone seems to think he really does create traffic. Maybe they are just friends, i dunno. It's always been a mystery.

Clayton is terrible for the site imo

My friend who is a 9ers fan hates Baalke. Wanted the 9ers to suffer because he felt that Baalke and York deserved it.

Geathers, the guy who gave Smith his second concussion is Robert Geathers's cousin, the guy who killed Trent Green in 06.

And there it is: you prove yourself a dumbass.

Smith has scores of games that prove he doesn't do much beyond the < 250 yards, and 1.3 TDs per game guy that refuses to take risks and will only go as far as the defense can carry him.

You touting of his playoff performances is ignorance: those are what are called "outliers", but you don't know that because you don't understand sample sizes or any other actual statistical measure.

Further, it's incredibly funny how you are crowing about how good he is in the playoffs on the basis of yards and TDs when he's lost more games than he has won in the postseason.

You know, wins? The only stat that matters?

Or does it not matter because pointing out a sub .500 postseason record casts a bad light on your mancrush?

Everything happens for a reason.

don't blame her. You should get her to buy you tickets to KC games tho lol

Clayanus harmless. Hiring Herm about ended my passion for football forever.

Foles better be our ray of sunshine goddamnit. We deserve it.

KMA

I regret ever sticking up for you.

It wasn't until the four horseman BS that you started this crap, for nothing more than attention.

I'll never respond to you again.

lol So he lost the games? I actually watched the games, did you? I understand the circumstances of the games, do you? if you did, you wouldn't be running your ignorant mouth.

you didn't try hard enough.

slacker!

Again. Celebrating injuries should be a bannable offense.

This piece of scum needs to go back to his star wars

Check your estrogen levels.

didn't he celebrate houston's or some defensive player's injury last year

I'm not celebrating injuries. I'm celebrating Nick ****ing Foles and the fact that a playmaking QB led us to victory.

indy sucks.

He's not celebrating Smith's injury. He's celebrating Foles....like I am. I admire Alex for his toughness and taking the beating he did. However, Smith better learn to protect himself.

pretty much.

Are you breathing that fresh air? The fresh air known as Nick Foles.

The irony of chiefs fan talking about celebrating an injury when the stadium cheered Cassels injury.

They still have Luck who can will them to victory.

...that was low rent

Are the Colts one of the NFL's dirtiest teams now?

Baby steps, Mr. RobBlake. Baby steps.

We will give Mr. Foles his due until he proves to be as worthless as all our other quarterbacks.

That coupled with growing up.

And flying almost every Sunday.

Yep he got banned last year for celebrating an injury on one of our players

To this day I will insist that we were celebrating the fact that we got a first down on the play.

5-2 record and an upgrade at QB. Win/win

AS11 had a 10 year career and stole millions. I hope he lives to 80 and has a happy healthy post football life.

I do want to see Foles play next week

Foles had a 7 TD game, Smith has only thrown more than 3 TD's in 1 game ONE TIME. And that is with many more years under his belt. I'll take Nickey-Poo

ROFLROFLROFL

Youre a hypocrite...

Whining about clay when the same thing happened to Cassel and people cheered... Where we you then asking for everyone to be banned?

DIG IT!

http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/...20120203055820

Well played

I too, am eager to see Mr. Foles show us what he has.

The Foles revolution is underway.

I wish they would go with Foles as there is no doubt in my mind we would get more td's if they did but we all know it won't happen this season.

That is how I feel about the Niners right now. I will continue to watch every game but won't spend a dime as long as York runs the team. You guys are very lucky to have Dorsey.

My wife is a Chiefs fan so I watch a lot Chief games. They were a lot more fun to watch with Foles today. I think it had a lot to do with the Colts defense and them not gameplanning for him. But there is noway you bench Smith right now. He is a leader and have played well. Now if he starts shitting the bed, then yeah put Foles in.

Foles should start next week, let Smith get healthy. They should have never cleared him today, very dangerous

Sickening

We had Cassel rammed up our asses for years. That was on Pioli.

I thought it was "thickening" myself....

Anyone celebrating Smith getting concussed is a douchebag.

I felt quite calm when Smith went down. Name another fan base that has that luxury.

Smith is and will be the starter, but picking up Foles was huge.
