Liking Troy Smith more and more.

49ers have burned the Rams on two long passes. Troy Smith is 2-2 for 97 yards. You forget how strong his arm is. First play didn't result in a score as the drive stalled due to a strong Rams pass rush, but second drive took them to the 1-yard line. An easy punch-in for Gore.

Loser announcer crew: "Troy Smith got sick and lost 40 or 50 pounds or he would have been the starter at QB for the 2008 Ravens". I'm throwing the B S flag there.

He sat behind Kyle Boller and then was looking to start ahead of rookie Joe Flacco, but that opportunity was derailed when he came down with a rare throat infection that gave Flacco the opportunity that he took and parlayed into what appears to be the future of the franchise.

The Rams are mistaken if they don't believe Troy Smith can make plays.

Man, James Hall just made a fool by Gore.

Your "link" is a google search. Please link to the specific part where Smith would have beaten out Flacco and the part where a 190 lb. man lost 1/4 of his body weight?

It was actually around 20 pounds.

He had a good chance to beat out Flacco. It wasn't a sure thing.

 

[lyon812]

Important stand by the Rams there.

Is that what you're calling BS about? ya didn't really care about the specifics of weight, just that he had a shot to start and got sick.

Did you miss the part about he lost FORTY TO FIFTY POUNDS?The obvious: which was it, 40 or FIFTY? FIFTY pounds? Obvious exaggeration.

Thanks for the link. EXACTLY!

I def agree with you

 

[lyon812]

Something I'd forgotten is that Kyle Boller started the first preseason game, then was injured in the second. After season-ending shoulder surgery they were left with Smith and Flacco.

 

[Bojang0301]

I think there is already a conclusion to the argument but obviously the answer is a jackass... it was 20 lbs... but Troy Smith did have a decent chance to beat out Flacco and had a great deal of support from defensive teammates such as Ray Lewis and Terrell Suggs.

In other news FarveCo's. head is still slowly imploding in on itself. As he proves once again why he is the worst poster ever.

 

[Slevin Kelevra]

Steven Jackson ??

 

[jchapman70]

Has L Robinson been playing in this game?....so far goose egg.

 

[lyon812]

Has L Robinson been playing in this game?....so far goose egg.

Yes, he's been playing. He's simply not a major/pivotal part of the offense.

 

[biggamer3]

Steven Jackson was amazing on the last TD drive, made 3 separate superb plays

 

[lyon812]

Pooch kick is preferable to a 51-yard attempt by Josh Brown? Huh.

 

[mbuehner]

Is Gore playing this half or what?

 

[two_dollars]

Is Gore playing this half or what?

 

[cobalt_27]

Is Gore playing this half or what?

WTH?

 

[tkrull]

Apparently nobody watching this battle for control of the NFC West...

 

[mbuehner]

Oh, there he is. See what happens when you involve your best player?

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

I've only been watching this game here and there, but every time I tune in I see a big 49ers play called back.

 

[Lord Lucan]

49ers just had their 3rd TD taken away on a flag, also had an int taken away by penalty.

X3 NOW

 

[fasteddie_21]

Troy Smith...why hasn't he gotten more of a shot in the NFL? Dude has a serious cannon for an arm.

 

[tkrull]

The Niners still appear to be a comedy of errors...

 

[footballnerd]

I like this guy Troy Smith

 

[lyon812]

Well, in SF's defense, Gore had one long run and one long catch, and was 16 for 31 otherwise. Meanwhile, Smith has been gouging the Rams pass defense all afternoon long.

And by gouged, I mean ridiculous amounts of big plays being given up. By all rights, the 49ers should have two more td's.

 

[tkrull]

The Niners still appear to be a comedy of errors...

And on cue...You're welcome San Francisco...my job is done here. Please remember to tip your wait staff.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

I've always doubted Smith going back the BCS game against UF, but he looks impressive today.

 

[Lord Lucan]

213 yards of penalties in this game

 

[biggamer3]

wow 3rd and 33 and the Niners get the first down

 

[lyon812]

So, if the Rams had let Brown try that 51-yarder earlier--which is in his range--instead of that stupid fake FG/pooch kick....they mightn't be in this situation.

 

[nysportsfan]

Why isnt that a personal foul, helmet to helmet on Bradford?

 

[PolishNorbi]

Why isnt that a personal foul, helmet to helmet on Bradford?

Cause he's not P Manning.

 

[fasteddie_21]

Heck of a throw there!

 

[Brady Marino]

Give Bradford a deep threat and this team will be a good one.

 

[mmarsian]

Give Bradford a deep threat and this team will be a good one.

If Donnie Avery could ever stay healthy, I think he'd definitely be a viable threat.

 

[tkrull]

GORE!

 

[tkrull]

That's a bad call...

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Seemed uncatchable to me.

 

[lyon812]

Dammit.

 

[RudiStein]

Seemed uncatchable to me.

Hell if anything the WR ran into the DB. Bad call.

 

[Brady Marino]

Rams would be running away with the NFC West if it were not for late losses to Tampa and now San Francisco.

 

[Sabertooth]

Pretty safe to Troy Smith has secured the job?

 

[the moops]

Yep. Terrible.
