49ers choose Smith as their starter.

Coach Jim Harbaugh formally made the announcement that has been anticipated by 49ers fans.  Harbaugh claims that Smith played "calm, cool and collected."  He must have not been watching the same game.  I saw him get rushed and only make 8 completions, but I'm not managing a losing franchise and oh, expect him to be able to handle West Coast offense...

Did I mention he did not throw a touchdown during any of the four preseason games... just sayin.

Smith, is a 2005 No. 1 overall draft pick out of Utah and took the majority of reps with the first-team offense during training camp.  Now, he will be the guy going into the team's Sept. 11 opener against the defending NFC West champion Seattle Seahawks at Candlestick Park. Smith returned to the Niners for 2011 on a $5 million, one-year deal after a positive meeting with Harbaugh -- an ex-NFL quarterback himself -- during the spring.
