Man, if I could relive that 2011 season... such a special year.

The people who disliked this video are not 49er fans and they don't have a heart. Alex Smith is one of the hardest workers in the NFL and when you give him actual pro bowl receivers that are not injury prone it shows on the football field. Most underrated QB in the NFL.

Alex Smith was the last 49er quarterback to win in Seattle.

Thank you alex smith my first favorite quarterback congrats on retiring thank you for everything champ 👏😊💪🏆👍🏈

I wish he was still a 49er.

As a Chiefs fan I feel so damned bad for 9'ers fans. Your front office did y'all dirty when they traded Alex to the Chiefs.

It's amazing to me how fast Jim Harbaugh turned against Alex Smith. You don't take a quarterback's job away from him just because he had the bad luck to get hurt. It wasn't like Smith was playing crappy before his injury. After seeing this video I just wonder what would have happened if Smith had been our QB in the SB. As far as this season goes we'll be lucky to even make the playoffs if Kap continues playing the way he has been. Also, Kap kissing his bicep after he scores a TB is a bit egotistical and says to me he cares more about himself than the team. Anyway, thanks for this video it was really cool to watch.

I miss this guy so much. He's the definition of perseverance. Smith > Kaep all day. Been saying it since day 1. All Alex needed was some consistency with coaching and he would blossom. And he was starting to before he got hurt

Alex Smith has unbelievable mental toughness. I really enjoyed reading a lot of these posts here from the SF faithful. I'm still on cloud 9 multiple days after Alex Smith and the KC Chiefs whooped the Patriots 42-28 (9/7/2017) in Foxborough. Alex threw for 368 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INT, 28/35 for 80% completion percentage and QB rating of 147. He also had two completions > 75 yards and last year the Pats did not allow one. Thanks Alex!!!!

I agree 100% with the original poster's assessment of the situation Alex was put in and how he handled all of it during his time with the 49ers. Nothing but professionalism and class from the guy, you can only hope every player handled himself that way. I always liked Alex and wish him nothing but the best in KC. I hope that someday he will get a Super Bowl win. With that being said, as far as trading the right QB, well Jim Harbaugh made absolutely the right call on that one. I know many people don't believe so but there is a reason he is the 49ers head coach and all of us are not.

Good luck tomorrow Alex. Your still #1 in my book.

Thank you for this video. I really miss Alex Smith as a 49er, every game was magical. I haven't watch a single NFL game this season because the 49ers choose to demote and traded him instead of allowing him to lead the team to the Super Bowl and win it all. I reside in Stockton, CA.

i love alex smith. a great example of perseverance and meekness. an inspiration for me during my adolescence rooting for the 49ers, and even more so now after suffering a horrific compound fracture

Thank You Alex! niner faithfull since 1986.

Why the HELL did we ever let him go. I am excited to Kaep to take over this week, but Smith should never have lost his job due to a injury. We were on the verge of becoming great again and we let it slip through our fingers!

Brought tears...man... faithful niner nation.

"Mike Nolan questioned his toughness." Those words couldn't be further from the truth.

Colin Kaepernick = Overrated. Alex Smith has always been the better quarterback, traded the wrong guy. I am happy for his success because the Niners were absolutely ruining his career during 2005-2010. Once he got a offense & a scheme he can work with you saw what he can do. He's a damn good quarterback & very underrated.

Alex has been great for us in kc, PFF numbers don't lie! Chiefs baby!

What i like most about Alex Smith is the resilience & determination of this man. Thru the toughest of times this man didn't cave in & just quit,through 3 head coaches, 7 offensive coordinators, he continued 2 study each play book and play 2 the best of his ability even when no coach wanted him. the man even played with broken wires in his throwing shoulder when coach nolan said he was faking injury! even when colin took his spot, he never wined or became a bad team mate. he helped him become

Harbaugh wanted Keap, I never cared for drafting him, but he was sold on 7 and we lost against the Ravens. Will always be an Alex Smith fan! Niners 4 Life!

You'll always be a 'Niner to me, Alex:) Hope you win a Superbowl in KC. Just not against San Francisco.

you put down your work alex, Been niner fan for 20 years, I am excited you are having great year !! you deserve it,, alex smith waited,, worked his arzz off, and as QB got niners back to playoffs, I hope you succed,,

Come the last 2 and a half minutes of the video the smile I develop never leaves my face. The way Alex came through to have a season like he did in 2011-2012 after getting booed off the field the previous year is amazing to me. Best season of 49ers football that I've ever seen since being a fan.

I watch this once a week and love it more each time. Thanks for putting it together :)

This is my like tenth time watching it and I still almost tear up watching from it. Alex is truly the classiest person to ever play football. I can only wonder what would have been different had Kyle Williams never been signed by the Niners, he single handed lost the Giants NFC Championship game. I feel like Alex had the team and season to win the SB that year. Such a damn shame, hope kaepernick tanks the rest of harbaughs career

Alex smith.....thank you for all this memories....you are awesome

Started liking the Niners in 2004 and was the first team growing up that I loved and followed. And boy do I remember loving to root against Smith and pray someone else would start. Then my day came when Kaepernick was named the starter and I was overcome with sadness thinking "But... Smith is my quarterback." All those years I felt Gore was the face of the 49ers, it was actually Alex Smith, and when he left I felt their identity go with him. Then the slow implosion of the team I grew up with. Go Chiefs, Redskins, Colts, Raiders! Win one my Niners a ring!

I know Alex Smith struggled in the beginning of his career, but he blossomed into the great quarterback he is today. I am a falcons fan, and I surely believe that Smith > Kap any day of the week; I have nothing against Kap, he is a fantastic scramble with an amazing cannon of an arm, but smith in my opinion is better, and would be a better fit for the system he was under. Its ashamed that the 49ers let him go due to an injury, I was looking forward to him in a niners uniform.

could of won the Superbowl if he wasnt on the sideline

This is probably the best hommage to Alex Smith on KZfaq. Love this clip. No one deserves it more than Alex. Great competitor and one hell of a human being. Class act

Very nicely done. I'm proud that Alex is our QB. I'm proud of the way he handled everything last year. A true professional in a league full of ego's. Quite possibly the most humble man on the Chiefs roster.

As a die-hard 49er fan I love that we have Kaep, but I also equally love Alex Smith. He NEVER got the credit he deserved and I'm so happy for him in KC. You never know, we could see him in the SB, it's possible!

Only casual fans complain about a QB like smith. As a skins fan I love the fact that I didn’t have to grab the bottom of my seat everytime it was pass. A QB like him makes me less anxious during the game

Does anyone else remember the 2011 playoffs, when the 9ers seemed to have given up, and Alex ran the ball in the 4th quarter to keep the scoring drive alive? He did it many times, but once in particular where he actually ran people Over and just would not go down. I believe it was against the Vikings, but in not positive.

This is such a good video. I clearly remember one of the first football games that I watched was this one. It was so amazing, it left a great impression on me. It showed me that the game had strategy, passion, teamwork, and most of all Alex Smith. I have been a 49er's fan ever since and more specifically, an Alex Smith fan. I would willingly argue he is one of the best quarterbacks ever.

Wen they drafted Alex I was smh cuz I thought Rodgers was coming to us but I rode with him anyways cuz he was with us so since then ive been a fan I always said he needs a coach and he got and showed everybody how good he really is and he can throw the deep ball wish he was still a niner but still a fan until he plays next year of course

As a kc fan i feel blessed to have this man with us class all the ways

I think we were too hard on him. Now, that he's gone, I feel like we should have appreciate all he did. He clearly was a good QB, it just took a team like this year's to make all of us realize that.

Alex you still the man! from a 49er fan. Happy for you and K.C. keep up the good work. But when our teams collide let the best team win with good intentions.

Harbaugh,gore,smith, Crabtree.... I miss them all

This guy seriously deserves a Super Bowl ring...hoping he gets it with Kansas City. Jim was stupid for cutting him and starting Kaep.

So far through 14 games of the 2013 season Alex Smith has 23Touchdowns/6 Interceptions, 3,200 yards passing with 61% completion rating, 92 QBR rating.........Alex Smith is Elite!!

let the man finish that 2012 season man

Back here after retirement. Thanks for the memories

Alex Smith is a Legend

Never, ever doubt Alex Smith again ❤

Greatest video ever alex smith has always been and always will be my hero behind God

8:05 is one of my favorite plays ever. Air Alex is all like "NO BOOM FOR YOU!"

retiring as a GOAT in my books!!!!

Thank you so much for this incredible tribute. Love the song choice. I've watched it twice now and got goosebumps on "The Catch III" both times. Thumbs up! Great work.

this made me proud to be a niners fan man we ddnt treat him well i hope he moves on to become a legend over there at kanses city good luck alex ill watch ur games i wish ud come back

Beautifully made video, you got a thumbs up. Actually brought tears to my eyes due to how bad they are now.

alex smith has become a great quarterback. As a 49er fan, I will miss him. Great job with the chiefs Alex

beautiful piece of work! always get goosebumps from the catch III.

The saints playoff game really solidified his place as a Niner. Went through hard times and always kept his chin up. Great great video. Made me get teary eyed a bit

Thanks for the vid! I was always a Alex Smith fan when he was a 49er, and I still watch him play with the Chiefs when I get a chance.

He's been through a Lot.. Watch his videos can't say he can't play! I just watched him play against the Giants! Amazing QB

So many great memories (and frustrations) watching this. 49ers always seemed to be on the cusp of something, but Smith and the rest of the team couldn't quite get there until Harbaugh came. On side note, can we all agree that those 49ers uniforms in Smith's early years were atrocious? To this day, it cursed the team when they started using them in the late 90s.

Great video editing. Fantastic. I wish Alex was still with us. I respect him more, for sure.

Goosebumps. This was VERY well made, and Alex is the man

Great vid! Thank you and we already miss Alex.

Such a great video. I always liked Alex. May he be successful no matter what team he plays for but I always see him as a 49er

Great video. Excellent on all scales man.

THIS IS SUCH A GREAT VIDEO! LOVE THIS!

Great video! Caught the Chiefs game tonight, and wanted to relive the Saints game Alex won in the playoffs, and came up on thus video. I'll be rooting for Alex the rest of his career. Dude deserves it for the all the crap (some of it by his own doing) he got on the sorry ass teams he played for before Harbaugh got there. Go Alex!

People who keep throwing the point that Colin is still young are not seeing the point. Colin did not do anything this year to make me a believer in him. Before the season started i predicted that niners will make wildcard and colin will struggle a lot. Was right on both, because Colin has been with the same coaching staff and basically same guys since, but even in our superbowl run we looked extremely vulnerable. The reason how we got to the Superbowl that year was the element of surprise with the read option. But the tape will show you that Colin was a 1 read qb and when the first read was taken away he struggled. Fast forward to this season and everyone was hyped up about the first game of the season how he passed for 400 yds and 3 tds. i wasn't sold because one he threw 17 passes to one guy and everyone else were barely were thrown too. it just shows how he favors one side of the field and one receiver. another reason it worked because it was against one of the worst defenses in the league. but what happened next game? he had one of his worst games as a pro. Elite defense consistently make colin struggle because they take away his first read. People say he got better when Crabtree came back, partially they were correct but i still saw the niners offense struggle to sustain drives and score with everyone healthy on offense which scared me. but i was hoping for the best when the playoffs came around. Fast forward to the playoffs and we play the packers. now the packers are devastated with injuries on both sides of the ball. so i think that the niners should blow them out. how wrong i was. the niners couldn't move the ball and even though they were clearly the far superior team they only put 23 points up! i tried giving colin the benefit of the doubt but again he wasn't really reading the defenses, he nearly threw a pick to end all hopes at the end of the game. but he did run for over 100 yds people say. but as a qb running isn't what your game should be entirely made of. passing is a lot bigger and more important. but we won so i was like next round baby. throughout the playoffs colin never completed 60% of his passes. his td ratio to turnover ratio was 4:4. which isn't good at all. when the seattle game came around i knew before the game that we would lose because of the environment, colin's inability to read a defense, colin's inability to spread the ball, and colin consistently having terrible clock management. People say that colin was the better qb between him and alex smith. i disagree completely because what alex smith did this year was nothing short of amazing. in his first year in a new team, players and coaches he adapted and exceeded my expectations. he lead them to a massive turnaround posted career highs and when playoffs came around and he performed the best of any qb in that one game. alex has finally come into his own and he is getting better. while on the other hand colin hasn't

All i have to say is.... ''Clutch'' Still my favorite Qb. Players Like Alex Smith is the reason I watch football. An Underdog surrounded by haters such as fake bandwagon fans and dumb NFL Media. Kapernick has great talent. I just wish he had Alex Smith's smarts and leadership and clutch moments, because that's what it takes to win a superbowl. Us Niner fans don't care about how far you get in the season... In the end ...all we care about is The shiny Rings.

The Smith to Davis play still gives me goosebumps.

Im a real niner fan that still rooted for the niners even when they were bad and alex smith was the quarterback. thats what a real niner is.

Great video, thanks for posting. We're sure happy to have a guy like him in KC. It was great to see what he's capable of doing, and I didn't know about "Camp Alex." What a great leader! I hope we can get him the protection he needs and some good targets downfield. There's no doubt in my mind that if anyone can take the Chiefs there, it's Alex. Class all the way, 'Niner Fans. You remain the undisputed class leaders of the Bay Area, with no competition whatsoever. None.

I went to a KC video on him and told them they were getting a class act and good guy and told them gratz...b4 season started...now they are 8-0. Nice video and much deserved.

thanks alex smith for giving us a great season back then and now we have kaep who's also great and hope you do well as the chiefs qb

Best Alex Smith video I've seen so far. Great job. Thank you for uploading.

He's our now! The guy who turned the team around along with Andy Reid. Kansas City Chiefs will rise again and stay strong!

Best video I ever seen.. Thanks man

This video made my eyes water. Great job. Couldn't have been any better.

This video just gave me goosebumps, brought back a lot of great memories of screaming at a television set and praising Alex's names. Week 7 in 2009 against the Houston Texans is when Alex really showed me what he was capable of, and I've never turned back since. This video just showed you as a QB, it didn't do you any justice as an honorable and amazing man. Best of luck to you in Kansas City, bring them back to relevance like you did us.

Awesome tribute homie, 👍👌👏👊 . NINER EMPIRE READY TO STRIKE ONCE AGAIN. Let's get it, NINERS!

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! Alex Smith is going to go down as one of the best QB's of all time in my book. Not for his stats but for his CLASS and COMPOSURE. Even though all the criticism he never once was a drama queen. The time that he was battling for a starting position with Shaun Hill threw the time with Collin Kaepernick, he always showed class even till the day of his trade to the Chiefs. I hope he see's this video and knows that 49er fans still appreciate him and what he has done.

Some fans will always find something to complain about, it seems like Alex Smith has so many more haters than people that support him. He continues to do great things without offensive line or wide reciever help. The Chiefs have had shitty quarterbacks ever since Trent Green left up until they traded for Smith. I love to watch him play and i cant wait to see what he does now that the Chiefs grabbed Maclin and a few offensive linemen in the offseason. I will never understand why the 49ers traded him to KC because he is and has always been better than Squidward.

A true professional on every level!

The dude is a warrior. People want to complain about him not putting up gaudy numbers but the fact is that he got it done and was clutch as fuck when we needed him the most. 6 4th quarter comeback victories including the biggest shoot out in NFL playoff history (no other game had 4 lead changes in the final 5 minutes of the game). If Kyle Williams doesn't turnover the ball on Special Teams at least ONCE out of the two times he did in the NFCC, Alex Smith is a TWO time Super Bowl champion.

Great video. Thank you alex smith - from the kansas city faithful

Man I can't even explain how much I appreciate Alex. He's done more for the Niners than I think Kap will. Kap is a good player, but Alex is a good person both on and off the field with qualities that I can't see Kap having. Camp Alex is just one of the examples of his character. The Catch III - Unforgettable. The comebacks he made, and even his willingness to come back to SF after they "tried out" Peyton Manning. Wish you the best of luck as a Chief, Alex.

Thank you, Alex. You'll always be in my heart. Love Alex, love Colin, wish both could be Niners' qb's forever.

this video shows every pass alex smith completed that was beyond 10 yds.. Good old captain checkdown.

Niner fans were pissed that they drafted Alex smith over Aaron Rogers, Rogers would have suffered the fate As Alex, numerous head coaches offensive coordinators, the team was dysfunctional till Harbaugh took over.

A legend.

Really well done. Rooting for the 49ers as always, but I wish Smith the best. Who cares about his stats or his opponent, KC and Smith won today.

This video is nothing short of spectacular

great video the man is so underrated we love in kc

I miss Alex Smith

Great video, I'm another KC fan thrilled to have Alex Smith as my QB.

Still remember the day I bought my #11 jersey and the way Jim would pump up his QB before the games.

Who says this guy can't throw a deep ball? Who says he's a dink and dunker? This dude is a great QB, just because every play isn't a 70 yd bomb doesn't mean he isn't capable. He does what is necessary to win, and now he's still doing it in KC. I'm pulling for him!

Thank you old friend.. Wish you were still here.

Miss this guy so much, kaep does have a future ahead of him but I still think Alex's future should've ended as a niner

Really well done... bookmarked and would love to see another version of this with all the footage of him being traded and his run guiding the Chiefs to the superbowl

This video shows that Alex is a great come from behind quarterback. Kap still needs to prove himself.
