Smith had 2.9 seconds or more to throw on 4/6 sacks. That's plenty of time in the NFL.

That can be a deceptive stat as well.

Let's say for instance that the ball is snapped and just as Smith hits his back foot on a 3 step drop.. he has a DL shoot through McSuck and get in his face... Smith wiggles to the right and the DL fails to wrap arms around him to get him down... so Smith continues to the right looking for lane to run, but the RT can't stay in front of his man, and the defender brings Smith down for the sack.

A likely sack that should have taken 1.7 seconds.. took 2.9 seconds... but it was 2.9 due to Smith's initial evasion.

See? impossible to really nail down these things by looking at a stat.
