He burned the bridge I believe. Enjoy the ride. Its gonna be a long year.

 

What?  Smitty did a great job of handling his release and said all the right things in the media.

 

Even if Gettleman doesn't like him, he wouldn't stand in the way of allowing Smitty to retire a Panther and JR wouldn't let him even if he tried.

What? Saying there will be blood and you're not even the starting receiver for your new team is the right thing to say? Telling Panther fans not to call him by his first name anymore is the right thing?

He'll play 2 years in Baltimore and sign his one-day deal here. I don't see him making the 3 his contract is for, plus the Ravens can save money by cutting him even after next year I believe. 

 

Then he'll have a big retirement ceremony that Cam and many players will attend, all wearing Super Bowl rings which will cause the only awkward point of the press conference, as Smitty makes a "joke" about wanting one of those.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
