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...

    • Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it. 
    • Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
