Jerry Richardson sure is consistent in getting rid of troublemaking players immediately!

That's why when Steve Smith ended up in jail in 2002 after ending fellow receiver Anthony Bright's career by breaking his nose and eye socket, he definitely wasn't signed to a 6 year $27 million extension after the 2003 season. 

 

That's why when Steve Smith was suspended by the Panthers for 2 games for seriously injuring Ken Lucas during practice in 2008, he definitely wasn't signed to a 3 year extension in 2012.

 

OH NO WAIT

 

Steve Smith was a cancer hated by everyone in the organization except Jerry Richardson for some unknown reason and he managed to stay on this team for 13 seasons despite assaulting fellow teammates MULTIPLE times in front of dozens of witnesses both times. He essentially ended both guys' careers. He stayed in part due to elite talent.

 

But yet Greg Hardy, who was also charged with a misdemeanor assault charge (with no eyewitnesses mind you), is getting booted out the door? Despite how godly he has played in recent seasons? Despite still being young, despite playing a much more important position than wide receiver?

 

Can someone please help me make sense of this? Smith had his misdemeanor assault charge dropped too, but only after he entered a deferred-prosecution program. Greg Hardy won't have to do a thing and charges have been immediately dropped period. What the hell?

Hardy is a FA who likely wasn't getting resigned regardless of his legal issues. He didn't get booted from anything. Don't be a nitwit.

Pretty sure Hardy wasn't going to be a long term Panther before the incident. G-spot just wasn't going to pay him. So at that point, well it is moot. 

However we could have maybe gotten something in a trade for him which is better than nothing. At best we get a late 3rd rounder for him and even that is in doubt.

Wow can't believe I agree with Sam mills fan, but he is absolutely correct. Greg Hardy was accused of hitting and threatening Nicole holder who has showed the world how unreliable of a human being she is. Steve smith was consistently a jackass and ended a teammates career, but Jerry Richardson loved him. What can you do though? This is the way Jerry Richardson runs things.

89- punched a man(several times)

 

76- was accused of beating/threatening a young woman

 

Football = Men hitting Men

 

Of the first two, which most resembles the equation above? 

 

Smith did it, twice, with multiple eyewitnesses.

Hardy was accused of doing something, once, with no eyewitnesses and all charges were dismissed.

    • And again, when watching him in college he had one distinct trait that I feel makes a franchise QB - on those plays when everything breaks down around him, he creates one on his own.  He doesn’t rely on or need everyone else.  That play last night on the final drive where he was getting sacked and threw it to Diggs before his knee hit the ground?  He does similar things all the time.  Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, etc., they all do it.  It’s what made Cam so special. but we picked a guy that’s the opposite of that.  He desperately needs someone else to make a play for him because he can’t.  Even that play yesterday on 4th down to Horn.  That wasn’t a great pass.  The defender was late and came down to make a play in the ball and Bryce threw it high and outside where Horn had to leave his feet and really use strong hands to catch it.  We relied on a 5’9” rookie playing in his first pro game to make THAT catch at THAT time bc of the early turnovers and a not great throw.  Crazy.
    • This thread is dumb. But I do think canales gets too cute with play calling and I don't think he's a good coach
    • 2 bad teams played yesterday and one lost. Both teams are still bad today. Bryce is a big part of that. It wouldn't have been a close game if DC would have just gone rage rushing from the start.  The Panthers would look so much better with just decent WB play. No way to avoid that fact.
