Said this before, and will say it again.
Some people (Tigger), cannot process the fact that Alex Smith's mistakes arent the conventional mistakes a QB makes (such as throwing a pick six, throwing in interception during crunch time, etc).
Alex Smith mistakes are opting for a dump off when he has a receiver sprinting wide open down field. Alex Smith mistakes are bailing from a clean pocket right as a WR is breaking open.
While throwing interceptions can be critical, game changing mistakes, I would argue that missing a touchdown that a junior college QB would hit on can be just as backbreaking to a team. Alex demonstrated just that last weekend.
