Well Smith obviously doesn't get alot of love here even though he had some great seasons through about 2010. I remember his rookie year he came on the field after an injury and our defense wasn't playing great, can't remember who we were playing. Will Smith came in and just started dominating and one of the coaches had to get in his face to tell him to calm down, at least that's what commentator and I thought He just really stood out and I was thinking man this dude is gonna be a good player. Seemed he got a couple sacks and several tackles over a couple series and then a roughing the passer call and he was jacked up. The man played some great years here and was a true leader for our team. Much love

I never understood the dislike towards him. He still played good ball even after his big contract although I will say he was already getting up there in age and imo was too old to be getting the money he got. His last good pass rushing year was 09 but he did good against the run through 2010-11. Yea, 2012 he absolutely sucked

In that Sunday night game against Pittsburg to n 2010 will Smith played like an absolute man possessed throughout the game especially on the goal line stand.

Agree with much you said. As often the case its where they are drafted and/or the pay they receive that determines much of the fans reaction.

Too be honest I was trying to find a gif that would show a good W Smith play and couldn't
