adam Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 It seems like the rust is finally off. What a game he had. In 3 games, Smith leads the NFL in total tackles (T-36), has 0.5 sacks, 2 TFLs, 1 INT, and 2 Passes Defended. If he can keep up this pace and get a couple of FF's he will be looking at a big contract. He is on pace for over 200 total tackles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 And to think he’s been nursing a hip injury for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonej Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 When you look at the Bears defensive alignment you can't tell who is playing what LB position because all are in the middle of the formation on almost every down but, on Roquan's pick he looked like he was definitely the WLB and made a play on the ball like the ones we have seen do it. Brooks, Marshall and Briggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many dropped INTs last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
