Alex Smith gets defensive when he's asked about his meager passing numbers. And when Alex Smith gets defensive, he apparently likes to take unsolicited shots at other quarterbacks who went with the No. 1 pick. This week, the San Francisco 49ers QB was asked about his passing yards, which averaged under 200 yards during the Niners run to the NFC championship game.
"I could absolutely care less on yards per game," Smith told reporters. [Wait, so he's saying he cares a little bit?] "I think that is a totally overblown stat because if you're losing games in the second half, guess what, you're like the Carolina Panthers and you're going no-huddle the entire second half. Yeah, Cam Newton threw for a lot of 300-yard games. That's great. You're not winning, though."
Says the guy who entered last season with a 19-31 career record.
Carolina Panthers linebacker Jon Beason heard about Smith's comments and responded on Twitter, to which I respond, "Like the crowd in 8 Mile, "daaaaamn!""
Beason just James Harrison'd Alex Smith. That was the verbal equivalent of a helmet-to-helmet hit in the open field. It doesn't even matter that Smith is right about football stats being meaningless. There are plenty of ways to make that point without ripping on the guy who put up the best rookie season in NFL history.
What a ? Alex Smith is. Be a man and accept that your passing numbers are ? . Do something about it instead of throwing better quarterbacks than you under the bus.

-

-

-
"2 coaches have been fired over that man's performance"
roddy white -
Get the vats out.
Somebody's soul is about to drown. -
Cryin' at Beason and Roddy White , some serious burn slow
-
So losing leads to higher passing numbers huh? So I guess Alex Smith had crazy numbers all those years the 49ers were losing huh?

ok so after a 13-3 record, his career record is 32-34..
but alex...YOU'RE still not winning though -
etherousness of the tweets aside... im just proud the ? typed "would've" and not "would of".
-
Yo, Roddy really said that ? . I'm in tears at the truth in that statement. Alex Smith better not say ? else.
-
That roddy ? is the type of thing that embeds itself in a ? 's soul..
-
How many wins does cam have?
-
That roddy ? is the type of thing that embeds itself in a ? 's soul..
What he say? -
Really? Alex Smith taking shots? Really?
Nah, I'm good.
Then again, I can see why he's feeling himself. Seems like lately QBs have been getting more props for what their team AS A WHOLE does than what they actually do themselves, so.... -
Roddy been giving everybody ether this offseason
I hope that means he has another big season

Easy targets tho - Roger Goodell, ? , Alex Smith.
All three of those get E-ethered on a daily basis. lol -
Smith needs to shut the ? up and make sure he delivers this season.
With that said, we taking the NFC this year. -

smith doesnt care about numbers because he's not capable of putting up decent ones
he kinda does have a point though. the only reason why he's catching heat is because he took shots at cam and the panthers D -
Well Damn -
I'd talk ? about that fruity mother ? too.
-
yall are overlooking the fact the alex smith actually ethered the entire panthers defense with this statement
-
yall wait and see how many yards my boy smith puts up this year!!! Naw I'm playing we still top 3 in the NFC though!
