Smoot Lays the Smack Down (Giants at Redskins)

I can't blame Reed too much for trying to jump that route that went for a TD. It's 3rd and long, naturally he's going to jump that thinking they're going for the first down. On the other play Aikman was right, he kinda got himself caught up in no man's land.

..and I agree with that assessment too.

He's just not very fast and doesn't display good instincts in my opinion. He was way to late to the ball on that 40 something yard gain down the middle to the Giants TE (forget his name). Aikman even called him out on it. Reed should have been all over that with a chance to make a play on the ball. That wasn't the only time I cursed him during the game.
