Do you think its reasonable to expect a 34 year old QB that's been in the NFL 12 years to repeat or perform better than the best season he's ever had? Yes because Alex Smith is still in his prime and he’s been trending upward in his play. Hes one of most physically gifted Qbs in the NFL. He’s not an old 34 like Donovan McNabb was when he was here.

My point is that when examining those two sets of numbers, what can you predict the next number to be based upon the set of numbers and how they showed up?

You actually ARE doing that exercise every time you keep telling us that Alex Smith's lone 2017 season means he will be even better this year.

That’s different, I actually enjoy doing statistical predictions on the teams I care about and hope the players stay healthy and play up to my hopes. Numbers otherwise bore the crap out of me and I don’t care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like cousins is leaving lol he didn't get the job done he's had 4 years including 2014. We made the playoffs from a weak 2015 schedule . A bit surprised some are proud to say cousins is gone and backing him up. When smith wants to be here and is a class act . He didn't complain about getting benched for Kap instead he stayed positive . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashing202 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 It's like we could of traded for Brady or brees . And some would say " well look who the coach was and look how much yards cousins has compared to Brady and Brees first three years ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I hear ya, Dash.... Some feel we gave up a 3rd, Darrell Green & 91M for QB Steve Bono I see it as a 3rd, a nickel corner & 91M for 1st rd #1 overall pick Alex Smith, who was in the running for 2017 NFL MVP. I'm sure, its probably somewhere in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceinthehouse Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Been doing some research over @ football reference. Alex vs Cousins a few interesting tidbits. 1st)Cousins has 12 game winning drives total...in his career. Smith has 23 (12 with SF & 11 with KC) 2nd) Smith has played in 7 playoff games, going 2-5 in them. Cousins just the Seattle, Packers games. Smith had 14 TD's & 2 int's in those games combined. Cousins had 1td & 0 int's in the packers game. Can't remember exactly, but Smith had over 220 yards rushing in those playoff games & 1 or 2 rushing td's. Next, ill look what Alex has rushing over his career. He's always been a good QB on the run & pretty quick. I'm curious to what extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceinthehouse Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 wow... Alex has 19 4th qtr comebacks in his career. Cousins has 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
