Ok, I've been reading this board since the trade was announced and let me just say, why does everybody assume Smith will implode in the playoffs or can't win in the playoffs? He is 1-1 in the playoffs and actually played well enough to take his team to the SB.
His postseason stats (2 games): 36/68, 495 yds, 52.9% comp, 5 TDs, 0 INTs, 101.0 QB rating, 7 rush 70 yds 1 rush TD, 1 turnovers (fumble lost against NO).
He averaged 248 pass yds per game on 34 attemps per game, at 52.9% comp with a 2.5 to 0 TD to INT ratio.
Why is this mediocre? And how much different is this from what we are seeing right now really? This was against elite teams and he actually had a better postseason performance against the Giants (who were an elite D) that season than Matt Ryan and Aaron Rodgers. He had a better rating, TD to INT ration than Brady did. Brady did pass for more yds and a better % but he still played pretty well.
Ryan - 24/41 58% comp, 199 yds, 0 TD, 0 INT, 71.1 Rating
Rodgers - 26/46 56.5% comp, 264 yds, 2 TD, 1 INT, 78.5 Rating (1 fumble lost)
Brady - 23/41 65.9% comp, 276 yds, 2 TD, 1 INT, 91.1 Rating
Smith - 12/26 52.9% comp, 196 yds, 2 TD, 0 INT, 97.6 Rating
