Carolina Panthers rookie quarterback Jack Plummer took five sacks and eight hits last night. Steve Smith's commentary indicates that was his own fault.
was his tenacity and toughness, especially for his size. What makes him a great commentator is his relentless devotion to telling the truth, no matter how harsh it may sound or whose feelings he might hurt., Smith was in peak form. Unable to hide his disgust with his former team, Smith's brutal commentary was a welcome diversion from the ugliness on the field.
During broadcast, Steve Smith says Jack Plummer needs more pocket awareness. "He's back there like he's waiting on an Uber."He's not nice but he's not wrong. Plummer wound up taking eight quarterback hits and five sacks, losing 35 yards in the process. He also fumbled twice. Pass protection is a two-way street between the offensive line and the quarterback, who is often his own best protector. It's not an accident that theis also the best at sensing pressure coming from any angle like Spiderman and avoiding it beyond all comprehension.
The hard truth is that sacks are a QB stat, even when you're playing behind a poor offensive line like Plummer was last night. If he's going to make it at this level, he'll need to dramatically improve this part of his game.
