Obviously some of Steve Smith's negative stats are a function of the QB that he had and at those times he was great in spite of them. Additionally, he is a player in a time when the rules changed late in his career to favor the WR. Some of these reporters who put some of today's young players and taller ahead of him like Julio Jones Antonio Brown & AJ Green are not judging using equalizing criteria. Anyone who can't see he's a HOF receiver needs to turn in their press credentials.
