Interesting thought when my friend and I were discussing how amped up the game tomorrow is going to be.

If you think about it, the whole Smitty matchup deal should be an advantage for the Panthers. Why?

Smitty is really the only Raven that this whole "Smith-Panthers rematch" matters too. On the other hand, we know there are lots of Panthers players fired up about playing against Smith. TD, Luke, Cam, you know they all want to stick it to Smitty.

(Edited b/c apparently people here can't take me using a little bit of slang as a joke)

The Ravens don't need any extra motivation, once the ball is kicked its just football. We struggled against the Steelers' smaller quicker wrs. Anybody who has watched the Ravens this year will tell you that 89 looks a lot quicker and a lot faster than he did last year. It's going to be an interesting matchup. I can almost garuntee their first play will be a quick bubble screen to 89.

can we just give up on this concept that we're going to make smith start throwing haymakers and he's going to get ejected

he's a lot of things but he isn't stupid

Well he is a hot head and he does let that impact his play at times.

But unless Dave Gettlemen is out there he won't be throwing blows.

First of all, these guys are professional athletes and Steve Smith bears no ill will against any of his former players.

Second, the only DB on the roster who might be able to cover him is Norman.

Third, I guarantee you there will be talking, helmet slapping and I'm sure they'll all be smiling and joking with each other after the game.

Norman is probably the last person you want covering him.

There will be a lot of trash talking.

But I hope Norman doesn't see any work. He sucks and on top of that does dumb poo....89 would rent space in his head

I'm sure there are players here 89 dislikes and I am sure we got dudes that dislike 89. Oppoaite true too

Yea Norman was the guy that was running his mouth about 89 before he even got here. He's going to talk trash to whoever is covering him, needs to be somebody that can keep their composure. Norman ain't that guy.

      You see, this is why I'm more critical of Dave Canales

      Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation.  Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.
