Smith's Smooth Moves

Smith slips in for the score.
Steve Smith showed he's still got the moves, slipping right by Johnathan Joseph for this seamlessly smooth touchdown. It was one of two 26 yard receptions on the day for Smith, who totaled 5 catches for 82 yards and the score. The resurgent receiver has 1,299 yards and 6 TDs in his 11th season in the league.

While Steve Smith put on the moves, Alex Smith showed the poise on Monday Night Football as the lights went out in Candlestick Park and so did the Pittsburgh pass rush. Alex was not sacked at all in this game (he's been sacked an NFL-high 39 times this season), and he completed 18 of 31 passes for 187 yards and a TD on a well-executed play-action fake.

On the other side of the ball, Eric Weddle had 4 tackles and a PDef, while Jonathan Fanene had a tackle, a sack, and a PDef.
