His passing is scattershot at best and while he has a strong arm, he is and continues to be very inaccurate The game has never slowed down for Alex. He will NEVER be a top quarterback for the 49ers.THE CRABTREE CONNECTIONAs we enter the Bye week, the future of our receiving corps has come to camp. Michael Crabtree, if he is anywhere near as good as expected, will bring the excitement and explosiveness to the receiving corps that is needed. With Jones returning from injury and Jason Hill and Morgan ready to go, and with the return of Frank Gore, this offense should be ready to reduce the vanilla bean running scheme and go to the air with effectiveness.Enter Nate Davis. In two preseason games he has demonstrated a rocket arm, and makes plays that the other two guys simply cannot; he is mobile and can make throws on the run the others cannot, and he makes excellent decisions. I don't care that he has only faced backups his ability is right there for all to see.Most important of all is his poise. In four years, Alex Smith has continually shown that deer-in-the-headlights quality that frustrates 49er fans Many blame his failure to excel at QB on the 49ers. 
They say he has been ruined by them due to having too many offensive coordinators, a poor supporting cast, etc I say that is baloney (bologna to my Italian readers). In reading the forums and comments of many of the newer and younger 49er fans who don't even have a clue as to our winning tradition, beg and plead not to rush Davis into the fray and ruin him like we did Alex. I read comments saying he's our QB for 2010, 2011, and even 2012.Why wait Do the names Flacco, Ryan or Roethlisberger ring a bell All were highly successful in their rookie season.If I were Mike Singletary, I would get Nate Davis and Michael Crabtree together and have them start working on their chemistry right now during the bye week. They are the touchdown combination of the future for the 49ers and it makes no sense to finish this season with either Hill or Smith since neither is the future of the 49ers.I am now in my 64th season as a 49er fan, having seen every quarterback in Niner history from the great Frankie Albert up to not so great Alex Smith, and consider myself to be a pretty good judge of quarterbacking talent.

Nate Davis possesses the most talent and ability to be seen in a 49er quarterback since Steve Young It makes no sense to hold him back The only way he is going to develop that talent is to PLAY We discovered a gem, let's polish it and put it on display It is time!.
