An outstanding article here by Mark Kreidler on whether or not Alex Smith should be labeled a bust.
J.T. O’Sullivan has had it rough trying to become a starting quarterback.
Ashley Lelie is among the 49ers on the cut bubble.
Good news as David Baas returned for his first practice of the calendar year.
This game featured two new signal callers for each team, both former first round picks: Alex Smith and Rex Grossman not getting the starting nod. J.T. O’Sullivan started for the 49ers and Kyle Orton Started for the Bears.

Alex Smith still believes he’s in the running for the starting quarterback job, and why shouldn’t he? Mike Nolan hasn’t exactly handled this matter with much detail, so if he’s going to keep being as obtuse as possible, each quarterback better believe he can be the starter. Of course, if J.T. O’Sullivan starts tomorrow against [...]
A couple of 49′er wide outs will miss Thursday night’s preseason game in Chicago. Both Arnaz Battle and Bryant Johnson will miss the contest with hamstring issues.

Mike Nolan has been almost annoyingly objective when it has come to evaluating the starting quarterback position. He has tried to express fairness in determining which of three QBs – Alex Smith, Shaun Hill or J.T. O’Sullivan – will lead the offense in Week 1. Now, though, it seems Nolan could be coming to a [...]
Dan Arkush of Pro Football Weekly wrote that the 49ers couldn’t have had a worse start than they did in their 18-6 loss to the Raiders last week. Well, actually they could have. At least one of their quarterbacks could have suffered a season-ending injury. Justin Smith or another important defensive player who could torn [...]
Who will start for the Niners at QB in preseason game two remains a mystery, but the fact remains that Shaun Hill continues to get less and less work in practice.
