Steve Smith

how many of you actually think that he is willing to but up with this crap any longer. he is dropping hints, and dropped a few last sunday. Anyone else notice that he didnt speak to jake the entire game? or that he sat on the defensive bench? and after the game he said "Fortunately I don't have to have that responsibility. I don't want to comment on something that's outside my pay grade." Smitty usually says what's on his mind. This time, actions spoke louder than words.

He also said that Jake needs something more than a teammate and that his relationship with Jake goes beyond that of a teammate. He said that he lost focus during the game and that he should shoulder some of the blame.

this must have been said since sunday, because what i quoted was what he said right after the game.

He certainly looked defeated after the interception from the bomb Jake threw him. He's firmly planted in Charlotte though. He's made mention to the fact how he loves coaching his son's soccer team, how they took trips this summer to Europe to watch soccer, how he's matured now and more mellow. All that means to me is that if we pay him, he won't go all diva and demand a trade. He gets along great with Jake but wouldn't argue if someone better came in I'm sure. I think he'll retire a Panther...but dear Lord I can only imagine what he would be like if Brady or Manning were his QB...wow.

He looked pretty exasperated to me, there's no quit in Smitty.

Honestly, why are we feeling sorry for him. He played pretty poorly and on two of the interceptions on passes targeting him, he tipped one right into the defender's hand and on the third one didn't even make a legitimate attempt to knock the pass down. He has blame in this as well and he admitted it. This was a team loss and no one should be throwing stones here. Smitty isn't going anywhere and trade conversations are just plain stupid.

Many feel sorry for him, because he's a Hall of Fame talent who will probably not make it to the HOF because of a not so talented qb.

he actually said all of that after the game.

people look at and hear only what they want to. you or reporters only want to hear that everyone, including smitty is bailing on delhomme then that is what you are going to find.

    • I meant write off in the entire class being absolute garbage and that being on Dan  FA was pretty solid but Dan and Brandt handing out one big terrible contract to Turk Wharton. Milton was their top target and the pivot from Milton to Turk while paying Turk what they did was insane.  Id LOVE to know had we not paid Turk what type of contract he would’ve received. 3/30 mayyyybe? This is someone Brandt obviously vouched for.  I’ve watched a few of Tilis’ interviews now. One with Jourdan and one with Yates. He’s a big Moneyball fan. Giving Turk the deal they gave him is the complete opposite of the whole Moneyball idea. They paid a dude who they saw some potential in money that you’d pay someone that has actually made an impact  The worst part is that he’s 100% here next year too. That contract keeps him here until 2027 for sure 
    • Are you kidding? They just now figured out they could use someone else for a qb sneak. 
    • The biggest problem is that his upward trend is still well below NFL average. At some point there's just too much evidence to ignore. I've been there for awhile now. Honestly, it only took a handful of games for me to realize that he just had too many physical limitations to overcome to ever be a legitimate starter. I get that the organization couldn't afford to pull the plug that quick after that investment but there's absolutely no way we should've gone into year three without legitimate competition on the roster. We always a year behind kn this Bryce thing. This year should've been the legit competition year and this offseason should've been the moving on point. Hopefully we'll play catch up but I expect the trend to cj tinge and next year will be the vet competition year.
