    You know this guy just flies under the radar and to be honest I never considered him a critical cog to our team, but everytime he touches the ball it makes something happen. If you think back to last year he almost single handedly won the Bengals game to get into the playoffs and really made a difference in the playoffs. Remember the kick-off return in the Colts game.

    He is also a monster on special teams.

    His stride is so long and smooth it doesn't look like he is running fast, but he just runs by people.

    To me he has become the new Leon Washington for us. He has a the ability to change games, but not really an every down player.

    I want to see him let one fly from the wildcat formation. Just to plant a see in the opponents brain. Then things will open up more.

    He's the black Leon Washington (inside joke).

    He really has, and quite frankly always has, done a remarkable job. He's no hall of famer, but he's someone who always comes thru wherever we need him. He's like the black Troy Brown (let's see if he can play D)

    It wasn't liong ago that the gloomers were calling him a wasted draft pick who would never be an NFL player and demanding that he be cut

    Brad Smith is amazing - When he runs, he never looks fast, but he sure can make people miss. The one play from the Wildcat where he followed LT through the holes was very cool to watch.

    Brad is a very big part of the Jets success.

    I don't think we would have won last night without Brad Smith.

    Huge playmaker for us. Sucks though that he got us to midfield last night and the "O" laid a steaming dump on that series.

    incredible runner, after sanchez, Keller and Braylon, the next most important offensive player last night. That's not a backhanded compliment, either.

    every time he touched the ball last night something positive happened. can't ask for much more than that.

    This guy just keeps making big plays week after week. Good to see him contributing any way possible.

    I hope the door is now a little more open for him to throw passes in the wildcat. If that truly becomes a threat, teams REALLY aren't going to know how to defend against it.

    Can't wait for Brad Smith to hit Mark Sanchez for a TD.

    Big difference is that this coaching staff is creative. He's not a good fit at WR (stone hands) but he's a hell of an athlete.

    It could happen. Remeber in HK, Sanchez has got (in his opinion) some of the best hands on the team.

    That TD pass was so awesome.

    Are Brad's carrer QB passing stats:
    2/2 2TD 0INT?

    I like to call it the Brad-Cat Offense.



    His passing stats are:
    3/5, 48 yards, 1 TD

    He had 1 rushing TD last year, account for 2 TDs total
