This is why we need to see some DEEP throws that are off designed roll outs/PAs. Alex does a decent job with those. Way better at doing that than being a traditional 7 step drop QB.

Because our line can't block for a three step drop?
I've never seen a play like that from Smith as a pro, shame it wasn't a TD
f**k man! D.Walker makes that catch if Gore doesn't touch it! That's probably who it was intended for.

That's what I thought as well. If Delanie caught it, it might have had a similar impact as "The Catch" did! It was against the Cowboys too and looked fairly similar.

ur right! except it wouldn't have been a high pass. Looks like it would've hit Delanie right in the chest.

A lot of quick fade routes are thrown off the back foot because the blocking isn't designed to be for long. MANY MANY teams have plays to beat pressure with one step throws or QB catch and throws. There are routes that can be called vs immediate pressure. Nearly every team in the league does this.

We should be one of them.
Impressive recovery of a snafu by Alex. It would have been even more impressive if Alex didn't botch the snap in the first place.

So he's supposed to snap it to himself?

That was a nice play be Alex, but it was his fault that the snap got passed him in the first place. But he did make a good recovery.
