Alex Smith did absolutely nothing with the Niners offense for 3 quarters. ate five sacks and threw zero touchdowns. Ratings wise, he still ended up with the best QB play in the division and the first out-of-division road win for the NFC West, and, as well, the first road win for the NFC West.
The NFC West is so bad that the Niners really didn't have a chance at Luck. I thought the Seahawks were the kings of horrible this year, but Arizona just lost to them, so the division may even screw up Seattle's chance at Luck.
