Totally agree. This is one of his biggest issues. He has to learn how to step up, stand in, side-step. This is more about feeling pressure and having a sense of the pocket...natural QB instincts.
Considering most of the pressure comes from the middle of the line where Rachel and Baas play I think about 80% of this has to do with the oline and not the QB.
That's just simply not true, but ok. Not in the mood for this.
You have your opinion and I'll have my facts.
Quote:G- Chilo Rachal actually had the better statistical year than David Baas. but neither were worth talking about. Rachal ranked decently in pass blocking, while Baas was a hair above average in pass blocking. Rachal beat Baas again in run blocking, but both were absolutely AWFUL. well below league average. 4 penalties for Rachal, 3 for Baas, so at least they didnt kill us there. not amazing, but decent for the position. top 10 in giving up sacks, both of them, middle of the pack in giving up QB hits and pressures.

It's hard bashing Smith when someone shows up with stats.
