Who will be the starter at QB on opening day for the 49ers? I think that it will be Alex Smith. And if he doesn't get done this year I could consider him a 1st pick bust. I honestly think that Hill has not seen enough playing time to give him the starting role. And JT O'Sullivan will definitely not be the starter because I think all he has is knowledge of the system and very limited talent.

None of them looked all that good against the Raiders. I'd probably say Smith looked the best of the bunch...only one without a TO, and he saw some dropped passes (Hill also, threw a perfect TD pass in the corner, but was dropped)...but none of them looked exactly comfortable with the new system yet, not even JT, who should be.

Basically, I'd say that the game resolved nothing, but that I saw no real reason to go away from Smith, either.

I will predict that Shaun Hill will be the starting QB for the niners when Alex Smith shows he can't get it done.
