Steve Smith calls fans "fat, lazy, armchair QB's"

To be honest it looks like he is calling the media this.

Seems to me your title is misleading.

Fans are referred to as armchair quarterbacks, not media. Because armchair quarterbacks are know-nothings that watch the games from home, on their armchairs.

Thanks for playing though.

It was funny when he said 'write something down so i can say how horrible that poo is'.

 

I laughed at least.

 

The Ravens could still very likely get in. I remember last year the Chargers needed some team planes to crash for them to get in and they made it. Also the Bills eliminated themselves, The Dolphins are out. The Bengals play the Broncos tonight and Andy Dalton is known for playing his worst in primetime.

 

Also the Ravens play the Browns their last game.

 

Not sure why they're so upset. The Texans are full of talent. They just got beat by a good team.

"Bottom line is offensively, we just got our ass kicked," Smith said. "That's what happened. That's what the score looks like. That's what it looks like when you just lose. That is the consequences of losing."

Smith's frustrations weren't contained to just the team's on-the-field performance, he also took aim at those that will criticize the team's play.

"We expect and understand and anticipate all of the negative feedback and all of the fat, lazy, sorry couch quarterbacks are going to come out," Smith said. "We expect that and understand that. We're not going to pay attention to it."

Known for his volatility, Smith then lashed out at a reporter who asked about his level of concern about the offense. The Ravens managed a season-low 211 yards of total offense, completing 42 percent of their passes and averaging 2.1 yards per carry.

"Won't you write and then I can tell you how much b------- it is," Smith said.

The Ravens lost control of their playoff fate by getting upset by the Texans on Sunday. They were eliminated from the AFC North race and will need other teams to lose in order to make the postseason.

 

 

What he said.

he's just pissed because he's not going to make the playoffs, but the soft Panthers that he schooled are.  paybacks are a bitch.

 

 

Gotta wait til Sunday afternoon to know who's in and who's not.

 

If Broncos beat Bengals, Ravens clinch a playoff spot with:

1) a win plus a Bengals loss in Pittsburgh

2) a win plus a Chargers loss or tie 

3) a tie plus a Chargers loss

 

Of course it's much more straight forward for the Panthers.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I have seen little inclination that they are laying down on him, that I can agree with. I don't think we are going to ever see much in the way of unfiltered opinions in the public realm from his teammates because that's extremely rare and extremely toxic behavior.  It's certainly a positive thing that they support him but, again, that doesn't make a successful NFL starting QB. Playing well on Sunday's does.  That is what has been lacking to date. He is not playing well consistently enough to be considered an NFL starting QB. He has to improve there. Be more consistent. Be more decisive. Make correct decisions more frequently.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's fine but for every Kurt Warner there are 10 Tony Banks that don't find their spot because....it never really existed.  Jake Browning was on and off practice squad teams for years until he stuck in Cincy. In his limited action over the past two seasons, he has played well enough that the Bengals panic traded for 41 year old Joe Flacco. It's easy to point to outliers like Warner or Purdy or Tom Brady as players who fell through the cracks because....well, they are outliers. The statistics over the long term have never really borne out the argument that every QB is just waiting for their perfect spot and situation. Most of these guys bounce around the league and it just never really clicks anywhere or they become marginal backup QB's. I don't think that exactly an accident. It's tough to be a starting NFL QB and it's why the hunt every offseason is so frantic. There are just so few that do it at a high level. My guess is that a theoretical market for Bryce Young(today) is going to look a lot like that post Chicago Justin Fields market. Not a lot of interest and a late round pick value at the highest. And a lot of that IS going to be his average to below average physical traits. It's extremely tough to be in that range and excel in the NFL. And it's precisely because you DO have to be closer to perfection to make up for the fact that you can't do a lot of the things that the elite to above average starters in this league do.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Im never not impressed by how confidently wrong you are. I've watched probably 200 NFL QBs play live. This talk about Bryce's arm strength is retarded, pure and simple. Bryce can make every throw an NFL QB needs to make in any circumstance. Does he have an arm that makes you go wow all the time? No, but very few QBs truly do. Bryce has plenty of zip on the ball when he wants. That TD to XL was a frozen rope. He throws to the opposite hash and outside all the time with no problem. Bryce's arm is objectively stronger than Cam's post-injury. I've seen both live multiple times and I know. And Cam could still play QB well without his rocket launcher. OPs point remains. QB success relies on a lot of nebulous things. Obviously you dont like Bryce. But his success is not going to be bc he doesn't have the arm strength. Its embarrassing this is a thing. Go to some games and actually educate yourself.
