John Harbaugh's Advice To Steve Smith: Shock The World

last week is done....so here we go... 

 

 

 

The head coach said Steve Smith could ‘shock the world’ by not saying anything during Carolina week.
 

Steve Smith Sr. has had the Week 4 matchup with the Carolina Panthers circled on his calendar for months.

From the time that the veteran wide receiver signed with the Ravens in March, he’s been answering questions about the eventual matchup with the team he spent 13 seasons with. Now that the game is just six days away, the focus throughout the week will be on the fiery pass catcher gearing up for the much-anticipated showdown.

Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh was asked Monday about his advice for Smith heading into Sunday’s game at M&T Bank Stadium.

Harbaugh looked into the cameras, noting he thinks Steve would be watching.

“My advice to Steve will be, ‘Shock the world. Surprise everybody. Don’t even say a word the whole game. Go into a shell,’” Harbaugh said with a smile. “But I don’t think he’s going to take that advice.”

Smith, who leads the Ravens with 290 receiving yards on 18 catches, is known for his intensity when he gets on the football field. Facing his old team that cut him after a record-setting tenure with the franchise is expected to bring that emotion and passion to an even greater level.

When Smith signed with the Ravens six months ago, part of the attraction to the franchise was that Harbaugh told Smith, “We want you to be yourself.” Harbaugh and the Ravens know Smith will be fired up for the contest, and he reiterated the message that he delivered to Smith on his very first day in Baltimore. 

“I think he’s going to be himself,” Harbaugh said. “Steve knows how to control his emotions. He’s going to be fired up. He’s knows how to channel that. He knows how to focus that the right way.”

We all know it will never happen. I just pray that Norman doesn't somehow end up covering 89.

Actually that would not be so bad.....they will brawl by the end of the first quarter and both can get ejected. It would be a much larger loss for them, we can afford to lose Norman since he doesn't show up much in games anyway.

My thing is let's not get crazy about stopping SS and forget JJones. Special teams better be ready this week!

Let's not forget that the most dangerous playmaker is the other Smith who is being neglected as they force feed balls to 89

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      5 straight completions in the 4th quarter to get into the red zone and then score a stand up rushing TD and celly in one of the best defenses faces to bring the score within 1 possession against the super bowl champs is "stunned" to you?

      yes, if you read what I said - that was due to his record breaking 245 yard 4th quarter performance in garbage time when the Seahawks were already celebrating. If Bryce puts up big numbers in the 4th quarter, people like you are quick to call it garbage time stats but seem to get selective when other QB's do it because it doesn't fit your narrative.  also, I'm logical enough to admit that Drake is a great QB and his performance had a lot to do with his protection, play calling, and other aspects. The game does not fall completely on the QB. Just like how the Panthers were still in the game vs Seattle until Horn's penalty changed that. It is a team sport, so many factors, players, refs, coaches are involved and it only takes one thing to change the game. the obsession with Bryce is just nauseating at this point and if you pay attention on here, it's the same 10 users quoting and pieing each other. it's super weird and everywhere else you go, opinions on Bryce are trending upwards. the way the season ended, the vibe at the stadium, the performance, should have everyone excited about this next season. Idk, maybe I just look at life and my entertainment outlets differently than others.
