If he doesn't leave the pocket then he gets clobbered at 2 seconds by Fisher's guy who beat Fish badly. Leaving the pocket to the right gave him an extra second of life. The wheel route doesn't open until after Fish gets beat and Smith is already on the move.
Now, had Smith stayed in the pocket he could have hit the wheel right at the line of scrimmage... throwing the ball 9 yards short of the line to gain on 3rd down. Something he gets ripped for constantly by fans, media critics etc. etc.
He was instead looking downfield (which everyone here keeps saying they want him to do) of which there was nothing open.
So scrambling at 3 seconds, sacked under 4 with nothing open in his line of sight. I'd have been running ladders on that play.
