He played it safe too much for me. His numbers probably do look pretty good looking at after the fact, but for those who actually watched him play, ROFL at Top 25. Not even close. Guys that take the check down on 3rd and 8 or simply throw it away with the game on the line because their wasnt an easy opening shouldnt be rewarded because their numbers werent that bad when looking at the Box Score. I hate QBs like that. Guys that go through the motions and take what the defense gives them with the game on the line and everyone in the whole stadium knows the game is on the line. Guys that have already accepted a loss and are simply playing it out and protecting their stat line. Smith was a fine QB to hold the fort till reinforcements (Mahomes) arrived, but Top 25 talk is laughable.
