Steve Smith now in the top-ten for most 100-yard games


TN05

Recommended Posts

According to Pro Football Reference, he now has 45 100-yard games - tied with Issac Bruce for 10th-most all-time. Here are the players ahead of him:

1. Jerry Rice (76)

2. Randy Moss (64)

3. Marvin Harrison (59)

4. Terrell Owens (51)

5. Don Maynard (50) 

6. Andre Johnson (50) [active]

7T. Michael Irvin (47)

7T. Torry Holt (47)

9. Jimmy Smith (46) 

10T. Steve Smith (45)

 

I think he's a Hall of Fame lock if he can get to 51 100-yard games. It'll be tough but going ahead of that sort of talent would really pay dividends towards being counted among them. For reference, here's where he ranks in other categories, excluding playoffs:

*Receptions - 854 (22nd)

*Receiving yards - 12,487 (18th)

*Yards per catch - 14.6 (17th)

*Reeiving TDs - 68 (36th)

*Receiving YPG - 67.5 (27th)

*All-purpose yards - 16,897 (15th, current active leader)

*Yards-per-touch - 14.2 (18th)

With a 101-yard receiving game at Cleveland Sunday, Steve Smith now has 25 career 100-yard receiving games on the road. Only Jerry Rice (39) and Marvin Harrison (26) have more.

...

The five catches for 101 yards pushed Smith to 290 yards for the season, the most by a player in the first three games with the franchise since Anquan Boldin's 287.

After today's game he is now tied with Torry Holt and Michael Irvin. If he can manage three more his entire career, he will be tied with Don Maynard and Andre Johnson - although, given how this season is going, he could very well get five or six more and pass Terrell Owens. 

Also, he already has more yards and touchdowns than he did in the entirety of the 2010 season. He's on pace for 93 receptions, 1,528 yards, and 11 touchdowns - which would be his second best season ever behind 2005. And given how they are giving him in the area of 8 targets per game, it's not completely out of the picture.

Reggie has a ring for his resume. Let Smitty win a ring and then I agree with your inequality.

Doesn't matter.

Randy Moss and TO. Of course they might have a better career but 89 is a much better receiver than Wayne. Reggie had been healthier and played 95% of his career with Manning.

Smitty played with Delhomme who was an above average QB, and guys like Moore and Clausen.

    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
    • I dont recall that happening to a qb but my memory has been crap the past few years
