Niners QB Smith: Contract talks can wait until offseason

Alex Smith is in the midst of the best season of his seven-year career, leading the San Francisco 49ers to an 8-1 record.

Smith also is playing under a one-year contract he signed after the lockout.

Those two factors might lead one to believe a new deal is at the front of Smith's mind -- and he wouldn't be the first player this year to be embroiled in a publicized contract dispute. But that's not the situation in San Francisco, the 49ers signal-caller said Wednesday.
