Steve Smith's postgame comments

Recommended Posts

I feel worse for him than anyone else in this whole situation. His incredible talent is wasting away on this team. Think about him if he was a Viking right now. A Colt. A Packer. A Steeler. He would be a sure-fire Hall of Famer by now. Instead, he's had to languish making a career bailing out Jake Delhomme and making morons that know nothing about football think that Jake is decent. He puts so much into what he does and deserves so much more than what this pitiful franchise is offering him.

think the season is going to be disappointing...when smitty basically does a "no comment" (as that reply was) the team has lost confidence...just tired of people saying "his teammates think is awesome", but the reality is they draft for character and the type players they draft won't be honest when it comes to things like this, they will only say "what is correct"...

I agree with the sentiments of other posters here--Smitty's stats (which I only care about to the extent that they get him into the Hall of Fame) would be a lot better on another team.

I'm afraid we might see him start to slip from his prime in the next couple years and I'd like to see us make the most his amazing career.

In truth I want him, Jake, Kasay, Fox and a host of others to get a super bowl ring together--they've done great things for this franchise. But I'm afraid Jake might not get back his edge and if that's the case we need to do something fast to take advantage of the talent that we have now (b/c it won't always be there).

Imagine a Drew Brees to Steve Smith combo? That would without a doubt be the best Qb to WR combo in the game today.

    • This is where I'm at. Dowdle is a feel good story and glad he's proving his doubters wrong. I just don't see how we keep our OL intact (which is the right move) and spend on another RB after giving Chuba his money. Though the odds are against him, I do think Brooks can still be our RB2 next year..and if he stays healthy, our longterm RB1. Having the full offseason with no pressure to try and come back like last year will help. I'm also happy to see he and TD have been connecting.  If this team is smart, they go into next year with Chuba/Brooks/ETN and sign a Dowdle-light version in FA at minimum cost. Chuba is in his prime and a full offseason to fully recharge will only benefit him more. Dowdle is unfortunately a luxury item I don't think we can spend our money on. We still have other areas of need that we have to improve on the defensive side of the ball. 
    • last time they loaded the box, shut down the run and forced BY9 to beat them, we saw the result of that. So what can we do this time to beat them? I suspect it's going to require a lot of short / intermediate passes with TE play to help
    • Floyd Mayweather Jr. made hundreds of millions off realizing this. He was an exciting boxer in his early days but watching his dad and uncle struggle with the effects of taking thousands of punches to the head he realized he was skilled enough to good guys without putting himself at risk and he'd just wait for other elite guys to lose a step before facing them. The whole WWE-esque "Money" persona was built around the realization that it doesn't matter if they're watching to see you win or watching hoping you'll lose, all that matters is that they're watching. Force them to love you or hate you, just make sure they care enough to tune in. We had a similar situation with Cam. Everyone felt some kinda way about Cam. You couldn't find many NFL fans who were neutral on Cam Newton. Is was love or hate but either way it was must see TV.
