It wasn’t too long ago that this was considered the future for San Francisco. Alex Smith, former number one overall pick—and current phenomenal disappointment—entered the game in relief of the Niners’ Shaun Hill and just tossed a 29-yard touchdown to Vernon Davis, a disappointing first round pick in his own right.
Alex Smith To Vernon Davis For Six!
↵DJ Gallo put it best:
↵↵Alex Smith to Vernon Davis for a TD!!! Just as it was drawn up (back in 2006).
↵↵Oh, and in case you’re wondering, the Niners’ current star of the future, Michael Crabtree has 3 receptions for 39 yards in his first career start.
↵UPDATE: Wait a second, he threw another one? 14-yard touchdown from Smith to Davis, and the 49ers are hangin’ with the Texans after closing the gap to 21-14, early in the fourth.
