no, talking about the throw to gore during the TD drive. he drops back, but the pocket is collapsing in front of him, so he takes 3 or 4 quick steps to his right and fires off his back foot, while his momentum is still taking him to his right, to gore for a first down. that is the play im talking about.

Were talking about Opportunity not anything else. He was given fair opportunity. People with NO opportunities don't get drafted #1 and handed the reigns to a historic organization.

What he did there isn't throwing on the run.

its throwing while moving horizontally at a quicker pace than walking or shuffling.

the important thing is he generated momentum and had to throw while moving. most of the time when a QB "throws on the run" he ends up slowing down to about the same pace as smith was before they release it (ie stutter steps)

At a quicker pace than walking or shuffling but not quite jogging?

When I spoke of throwing on the run I was thinking of when Smith bolts from the pocket and customarily runs out of bounds...that kind of running. Smith would get real dangerous fast if he learned to locate downfield receivers and throw to them as Montana used to do. Well maybe not quite like Montana but you get the idea. I just want to see Smith try it sometimes.

I admit that play to Gore was a good play on Smith's part though. He was able to put mustard and accuracy on the throw while going down.

Of course he's got a ways to go, he basically played a season and a half, and then sat out for 2 seasons.

Dan Marino couldn't throw on the run to save his life, and Peyton Manning isn't known for it either. And you are a moron.

Fair, level-headed assessment.

Side note: If he finishes out the season playing this good and continues to get better and gels with the receiving core, they better extend him.
If I remember correctly Urban Meyer said the same thing way back when Smith was drafted.

ps and seeing smitty play like i have always wanted him too is very nice!!
It would be nice to use those two 1st rounder to get an impact OT and passrusher/safety.
