Which is what many of the early critics of considering him were afraid of.
Some look at the past five years and see a needed stabilization of a franchise. I see five more lost years.
Unless Alex Smith delivers on the promise of the first five games of 2017 and plays with some guts and wins a SB, that's all it will ever be to me.

Depends what kind of lense you wanna look thru.
He’s been the same guy that he was going to be. He’s playing a tough position and isn’t a superstar. He’s reliant on the guys around him. It’s no surprise that when he has good ones around him, He’s had a career year.
He won’t be here next year. That’s fine and it needed to be done. They’re probably maxed out with what he can do.
I just don’t see the reason for the hate. He’s won a lot of games and put them in position in the post season. Criticism for not winning there is fine, it comes with the territory but again, being a guy that relies on what’s around him makes it tough for me to get too pissed at solely him for a lot of it.
