In SF, it was a lot like Marty-ball.
Of course, I had seen Smith, up close and personal on Sept. 26, 2010 and it wasn't his fault that the Niners lost to the Chiefs 31-10 in that game. His O-Line played awful, the play-calling stunk, their Defense was awful, but in spite of a hopeless situation, Smith never quit & he did not turn the ball over repeatedly. There was one pick by Flowers of a tipped pass & that was the only turnover.
