Which leads me to think he will only ever be a backup; his arm strength and issues with dealing with pressure/crowded pockets, means he's always at risk of interception in pressured situations. He didn't face those really against Carolina but he would definitely face them if playing Saturday. There's no indication he's overcome the problem with pressure, so right now I'd say Smith is the better 'risk' unless he's a total statue back there.

On the other hand, we have nothing to lose, so maybe if Smith can't go he might make the game entertaining, if not at least gives us a chance?
