Is Smitty going to be back this week?

Yes. You really think Smith's ankle is going to heal at a different speed based on who the QB is?

You must not really watch sports. It happens all the time. I'm not saying he faked his injury or that he wouldn't be back this week regardless but if he's questionable and his "guy" is in at QB rather than someone who hasn't gotten him the ball he might take a chance.

Lol realdeal stop trolling.

I didn't know trolls knew more than the actual posters.

From my own experience with a 3rd degree ankle sprain, even if he came back this week I'd expect him to be 50-75% at best... I think it'll be at least another week and when he does come back, I'm not expecting a whole lot that first week. But, this is all speculation as I haven't heard anything about him....

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
