"Hands down Alex is the best QB the Niners have ever had," said Yerkes minutes after Smith rallied San Francisco to a thrilling last-minute win over the Saints in Saturday's NFC Divisional playoff game. "I can't imagine anyone else in the history of the scarlet and gold I'd rather have leading our team on a final drive in a playoff game than Alex."

Apparently, playoff football in the NFL is serious business. So serious, in fact, that a woman will do whatever she can to help her man “survive and advance.”

Tim Tebow could have had his pick of the litter after leading the Broncos to an improbable overtime victory over the Steelers. The Denver quarterback was propositioned by 316 different women after the game but the Christian quarterback politely declined each woman's advances.

At least one fan who knows absolutely nothing about sports or history is comparing Sunday's match-up between Kyle Orton and Tim Tebow to the classic boxing matches of the early 1970s between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, so the guy has his Super Bowl ring and probably an MVP trophy after this year,” said Smith. “Yeah he might also be the most efficient quarterback ever to play the position. So what? You know who has two thumbs and was drafted ahead of Aaron Rodgers?”
