would people be opposed to Carson Palmer donning a 49ers jersey?

[what up]

  Using one game's stats to prove your point.

Carson isn't what he once was.  If the Bengals don't want you, that says just about everything you need to know.

Exactly.  San Fran is not the place to look for that.

I would love for the 49ers to draft Luck.  He may not be "the answer" but he could easily part of "the answer."

[acidicality]

Is Carson Palmer better than Alex Smith? Yes? Sign me up....
We can still draft Luck, if he leaves college this year I don't think he'll be ready right away. We can bring him up slower like Rodgers in GB.

Exactly, Palmer may be an upgrade from what we have, but I wouldn't dare think about giving up a draft pick for him or paying anything more than necessary for him.

Can we come back from an 0-4 start.........YES.  Did we make it harder on ourselves to come back after losing to the Falcons last week.........YES, but it can be done.  I won't even refer back to teams in the past that have comeback before that were even worse than us because those circumstances were probably different.  At the end of day, they don't call it the NFC Worst for nothing.  The Rams look the best overall right now in the division but they are led by a rookie quarterback and they really don't have a solid team overall if you look past him.  We could have and should have beat the Saints and Falcons, not taking anything away from either of those teams but I will say that we literally gave both those games away.......literally.  I like our defense, secondary needs to learn how to bump and run more and apply more pressure to receivers but I like our defense.  I like our offense as well..........minus Alex Smith of course.  Playoffs right now is definitely a possibility for us, we still have a chance, an outside chance but a chance none the less.  I mean the best team in the NFC Worst right now has a record of 2-2, we really aren't that far behind RIGHT NOW.  We gotta make our run now, and when I say now I mean right now.  We can let the other teams in our division beat up on each other or lose to other teams, we just have to get it together on our end. 

To answer your last question, we get out first victory against the Eagles this Sunday night.  If Vick were playing I probably wouldn't say that but since he's not playing we win.

[beermann2]

With all the trades going on, I hope the niners are thinking of making a trade. QB For Sale or exchange!

WerunSF, for some reason I still think the niners could still make playoffs. We have the talent. . . except at qb.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Alex Smith continues to dwell at the bottom of the NFL passer rankings, but his starting job remains safe with the 0-4 San Francisco 49ers.

For now, at least.

Despite Smith's struggles and the effect they've had on a winless team, coach Mike Singletary said Wednesday that he's not considering a change at quarterback.

"I am nowhere near that point," Singletary said. "When I look at Alex, I see growing pains of not just Alex Smith, but our team. I think Alex has done a decent job and going forward he's only going to get better. Hopefully we're at a point right now where everybody is growing up."

Smith, in his sixth NFL season, is tied for the league lead with seven interceptions and his 66.1 passer rating places Smith 27th among the 30 quarterbacks who qualify for the NFL rankings. He ranks 27th in average gain per pass attempt and is tied for 25th in touchdown passes.

Smith's problems were magnified during last week's 16-14 loss at Atlanta. After guiding the 49ers 88 yards to a touchdown on their opening drive, Smith threw two second-half interceptions that helped the Falcons rally from an early 14-0 deficit.

Smith also overthrew wide-open receiver Josh Morgan(notes) on a deep pass that could have gone for a touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Later on the same drive, with the 49ers clinging to a one-point lead, Smith took an intentional grounding penalty on third down that pushed San Francisco out of field goal range.

These struggles are nothing new for Smith, the first player selected in the 2005 NFL draft. He has been inconsistent throughout his career and takes a 68.9 career quarterback rating into Sunday night's game against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles.

This year was supposed to be different with San Francisco entering the season as an NFC West favourite and Smith playing consecutive seasons under the same offensive co-ordinator for the first time in his career.

But now that co-ordinator is gone after Jimmy Raye was fired last week. Quarterbacks coach Mike Johnson(notes) was elevated to take Raye's place. And the criticism Smith has heard throughout his career continues to grow louder.

"I'm not reading a bunch of sports pages or listening to talk radio," Smith said Wednesday. "But I do get it. As a starting quarterback in the NFL, you are more responsible for wins and losses than any player on the field. We're 0-4 and I'm the starting quarterback, so no question a lot of that falls on my shoulders."

But Smith remains unfazed. He's confident both he and the 49ers can still turn around the season. San Francisco is just two games off the NFC West lead and still has five division games remaining on its schedule.

The 49ers will need better play from their quarterback to get back into contention. San Francisco's offense has been mostly ineffective, ranking 31st in the NFL in points scored with only versatile running back Frank Gore(notes) making much of an impact.

Gore leads the NFC with 533 total yards from scrimmage and is second in the conference with 29 receptions. But starting wideouts Morgan and Michael Crabtree(notes) have combined for just 23 receptions as Smith has struggled to get in sync with his receivers.

"It's not Alex's fault," Morgan said. "Nothing that's happening is Alex's fault. It's us as a whole team. We just haven't been able to execute. We just have to grow up and make the plays count when they're there."

The 49ers could get some help on offense this week from centre Eric Heitmann(notes) and receiver Ted Ginn, who are practising and expected to be available for the Eagles game.

Heitmann, San Francisco's most consistent offensive lineman in recent seasons, broke his left fibula in August and has yet to play. Ginn, San Francisco's best deep threat, sustained a sprained knee in the season opener and hasn't played since.

The 49ers are attempting to become the first team since the 1992 San Diego Chargers to rebound from a 0-4 start and make the playoffs.


As you can see from this article 0-4 is STILL not enough to get these guys to admit Alex is trash.

Bring on 0-5!!!
