Wow looks like Gamble is not giving smith any slack.

I'm a Chris Gamble fan. I think he deserves "shut down" status. Smitty challenges other players every play. This has made our draftees like Gamble better players. They both were just in the act of being the best at what they do.

Had this been another player on another team Chris might have put more on that. Here's to aggressive football Steve Smith and Chris Gamble style. Here's to you fellas.

Keep your head up Chris...

Get better soon Steve please sit the rest of preseason you have absolutely nothing to prove to us.

I'll bet good money that, as soon as he could, Gamble went to Smith asking if he was okay and Smith clocked him one in the chin saying "Don't puss out on me now. We finally got you hittin' right."

Either that, or the two avoided/were forced to avoid each other all night.

Now that both our offense and defense have been totally devestated by widespread injury, the front office has no choice but to bring in Michael Vick and any person resembling an NFL Defensive Tackle. This is an absolute must.There is no time to waste on rational thought. We should cover our eyes and supress logic with a blanket of panic.

Take a deep breath. It will be alright. If not, only 354 days until the start of next years camp.

Even though it pissed Smitty off, I'm glad Gamble did his part. This shows the difference between Gamble and Lucas. Smitty's gotta respect Gamble, and Gamble is showing he is a legit shutdown corner.... He doesn't just fall back and let Smitty do whatever he wants, and it makes them both better for it.

Glad it wasn't anything serious...

    • Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.     
    • With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4. 
    • Self described anti-Bryce dude wants us to fail to take a major step forward     Yeah that lines up.
