Smith played poorly, but the poor play of the offense was on the whole offense, not one person. And the loss is on the entire team, including the coaching staff. They all sucked.

I don't know that any of us can say that unless we actually saw what the receivers were doing downfield. I am only making the statement to say that it's harder to blame your o-line when they are being asked to block longer than they should be asked to. There were a few plays with immediate pressures and several where the pocket pushed in. But in plenty of instances Smith had a clean pocket to make 2 quick reads.
