Should we see all the examples of WR not being able to get any separation? I see that a lot when watching the games.
I am curious as to what will happen if we get behind and have to move the ball fast. I don't know if that changes his mindset or not. His highest situational QBR is when we have been behind.
Further more I watch other games and you see most QB's miss opportunities every game. Yea Manning, Brees, and the upper tier guys don't do it much but nobody ever claimed Smith is that level.
He needs to improve but its not like he needs to make a huge leap, he just needs to make a few more plays a game.

Yeah, the idea that this disproves the notion that WRs aren't getting any separation is silly. The WRs are often struggling to get much separation out there.
However, this also raises serious concerns as to whether or not it would make a damn bit of difference. Smith's leaving a
ton of plays on the field right now. His generally conservative nature leads to many of those to begin with but now he's playing skittish football as well and it's becoming a serious problem.
I like the guy. I like the acquisition. But there are a lot of things to be concerned about with him right now and he needs to fix them if we hope to make some noise in the playoffs.
