Seventy-three players were chosen ahead of him in the 2001 draft, 72 of whom are out of the league. He has outlasted all but Drew Brees. Initially, he was supposed to be a return man only—not a wide receiver. He was called injury-prone early in his career. Late in his career, the only team he knew for 13 years fired him.

But he's still out there working so hard to come back and prove to anyone who doubts him that he can that he's vomiting.

The man is the embodiment of perseverance in the face of adversity, and I hope he has a career year.

In my book, he is better than Jerry Rice and Randy Moss. He's the best WR of all time, and that isn't because he was a Panther. He's five feet nine inches of raw molten lava waiting to explode in a violent eruption on the field. He always has been, and I can only believe he still will be once he gets back on the field. As Zod said and as I've said before, Smith had to catch passes from Jake Delhomme and Jimmy Clausen among others. He WAS the Carolina Panthers for damn near a decade. Put him in Marvin Harrison, Jerry Rice, or Randy Moss' situations, look past the nitpicky emotional outburst incidents, and Steve Smith is the clear #1 GOAT and there is no debate about it.

it's becoming funny now for the last 3 years its been the same crowd waiting and waiting and waiting for smitty production to fall off.........and he has proven year after year the doubters wrong, he's coming back from injury but the ravens have the young guns to go deep, smitty is going to have a good year, harbarugh is a great coach and i'm sure he will put smitty in the best situation to help them win games but also not put to much workload on smitty's back.

 

just sit back and enjoy one of the G.O.A.T play his last year

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack

      Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.

      Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
