What do you guys not understand? Last year was a waste for Alex Smith. Who did he have to throw to? The only thing he experienced last year was how bad a QB can look when he has nobody surrounding him. All he had was Frank Gore, and Barlow started ahead of Gore. Walter has Randy Moss, and that alone makes it 10 times easier for him. Moss half-assing it still beats an injured Arnaz Battle and Brandon Lloyd. And you fools are acting like Alex started all 16 games last season. It was only 7 games, and they didn't pass the ball much in that span. You guys are acting like Smith has been in the league longer than Walter, they both started last year.
He will be a better QB, mark my words.
But that's besides the point. Where are all these raider fans who were talking that shit about "we'll see what happens come 10/08" at?? 10/08 has come, and the raiders are still winless.
