That said, Eli is a better player.

You know what Marvin, Your Right about Eli being a better player !

I like that the 49er fans give Eli some props!

they actually do have some smart fans, the others tho.....

Those saying he would have to make adjustments to their offense - don't you think they wouldn't be running that offense if they had a better quarterback? Their offense doesn't truly rely around a QB, whereas if they had Eli or a higher caliber QB it would. Props to Alex Smith though, he's improved tremendously and hasn't had it easy with different coaches pretty much every year.

Ask this question around 730 tomorrow please.

I wouldn't but I seem to recall a poster here who had a tagline about the Giants trading Eli for Smith and a LB and the ominous challenge of whether Reese had the guts to do it or not. I always thought that was pretty stupid unless we are confusing guts with stupidity.....however it was an interesting thought to kick around.....

I didn't believe the increased productivity to the defense would offset the offensive productivity decrease to that move..

If your opinion changes based on one game I would submit that your opinion is not particularly astute to begin with.

Niner fan here. Why is this even a question? No one in the league would.

No. Ask the question at 730 means, this might be the worst question in the history of ****ing sports. Would you rather have a game manager who in big games looks for the grass to be open before his wide outs, or a two time Super Bowl MVP who is on pace to be the leagues most valuable player? If you can't find absurdity in that submission, then holy ****.

Alex Smith would trade Alex Smith for Eli Manning.
