Cannot put that on Smith. This. Can’t complain about him not throwing downfield into tight windows all season - even though he has some - and then when he does, the receiver doesn’t catch it so it gets intercepted and then blame the QB. Of course, blaming the QB is the easy way out, so it doesn’t surprise me either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I'm not sure I would be wrapping myself up in the flag of "his receivers are failing him." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was absolutely catchable. I'm not disagreeing it was possible for him to try to get it after the DB knocked it.. I'm simply pointing out that if it were placed correctly the DB doesnt get a hand on it and it doesnt get picked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the DB get there early or was that my imagination? And oh, btw, @turtle28 that last pass to Harris was pathetically off target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A TRAIN 89 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Gruden and Manusky better figure something out because TB can move the ball through the air with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Again, throwing short into the middle of the field down by multiple scores with the clock running. What are you doing?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DB got a left hand on the ball prior to it getting to VD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes no one is to blame. Just a great play by the defender. You can’t really expect Smith to nail what would have had to be an absolutely perfect throw to fit it in there. 9 times out of 10, where he placed it would have led to a completion.
