What you might not have known about Malcolm Smith

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Things you probably didn't know about Seattle linebacker and Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith: He is the younger brother of Carolina Panthers receiver Steve Smith, didn't get invited to the NFL scouting combine after leaving USC and he had an eating disorder that caused him to lose 30 pounds (and still has trouble eating at times now).

What you do know about him now: He had the biggest play in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Sorry about that...
 
Goes to show you shouldn't believe everything you read.

Six years earlier, in Super Bowl XLII, Smith’s older brother, former Giants wide receiver Steve Smith, caught five passes, including four on third down, to help New York to a 17-14 upset of the previously unbeaten Patriots. Trailing New England with 45 seconds left and facing a 3rd and 11 at the Patriots 25, Steve Smith made a tough catch on the far sideline, then ran for the first down to help set-up the Giants’ game-winning score.

But last night, it was his little brother’s turn. Malcolm Smith’s heads-up play snuffed out Denver’s building momentum and helped pave the way to Seattle’s 43-8 victory over the Broncos in front of 85,529 fans at MetLife Stadium.

    • It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.
    • That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…
    • Bryce Young is far less risky with his body when he runs than Richardson and doesn’t take many unnecessary big hits. Was much more worried about injury when he had that abysmal OL his rookie season than I ever would be when he runs/scrambles. 500/10 seems like a fairly reasonable prediction considering he had 250/6 in 12 starts last season. Of course literally anybody CAN get hurt, it’s just that we were assured by many huddlers that it was a sure thing with Bryce Young that he wouldn’t make it to this point in his career without significant injuries.
