Smitty takes blame for the pick6...

"Jake was expecting me to cross his face," Smith said, per Steve Reed of CarolinaGrowl.com. "I should have crossed his face and I didn't cross his face. I put Jake in a bad situation. I second-guessed my route and I shouldn't have. The bottom line is that I screwed Jake."

Holy crap, he even used my words...he really did screw Jake. Of course, it was so obvious that he had no choice but to admit it though.

I say again, the vast majority of Jake's INT's have come when he targets Steve Smith. Somebody needs to step up and take the pressure off of those two.

i seen that in the observer......i think it was a option route bc if it wasnt newman knew the play the entire time....... he played inside,jumped inside.slash said this mouring that jake should have went to the other side of the field.

There is no way in hell that was an option route, because Jake threw that ball about 2 seconds after the snap. He fully expected Smith to be inside.

which proves the point that slash made.....why throw it to a triple covered guy.plus if a croner plays to the inside why would you even think about throwing a slant with the corner right there.

:rolleyes:IF Smitty had run the slant like he was supposed to, he would have been inside the corner. And I don't know where the hell you're getting triple coverage from.

There was no LBer in on that play. It was a quick slant, hence the ball was thrown quickly, but Smitty ran the wrong route...everybody saw that but you, apparently.

And what the hell is it with you kids trying to put me down by calling me son? Don't' you know how ridiculous that is?

it was a lb in on that play go look at the tape brooking was there. i just seen it on espn from the sky view and dallas coverage was to were ever smitty went. yes i know smith ran the wrong route but when you have a corner playing inside and a lb there why the fug are you going to still try to put it in there.smitty and delhomme are not on the same page.......and im not a muthfuging kid,i wasn't putting you down.so get ya mind right!!!!!!!!

I just saw it too...the LBer was coming that way, but when the ball got there, he wasn't a factor at all. And if you just saw it, then you heard from the 3rd or 4th different former NFL coach and/or QB say that it was a quick slant that Smitty screwed up. It's not complicated.

BTW the part I just bolded is classic. Using childish language to proclaim your manhood. That's beautiful.

    • and they don’t get paid and teams don’t keep playing them 
    • Then if he needs time to grow up and he is going to sign an extension in needs to be a 3 year, 20m AAV. He doesn't deserve to get paid like a top 10 QB right now because he's not. Daniel Jones is getting 14m and is playing top notch football.  He may have had some better games, but his mechanics and footwork are still terrible when he feels any pressure, real or not. When he feels good, he steps into his throws like he should. When he doesn't, it's that body squared up or jumping arm toss or tip toe lob. His fumbling is a huge problem. He cant run QB sneaks. He cant really play from under center because his drop backs are terrible and he needs to be far back to get enough gapping to see the field. That's not top 10 QB contract worthy.  And let's not pretend that Bryce is some victim in all of this. Remember him packing on 20 lbs before the combine for the weigh in and walking around in a hoodie the entire time or practicing that S2 test that no one has mentioned before or since so he'd have better results, or riding that hype train like the wheels weren't ever going to fall off. Stroud got roasted and torn apart because of a "leaked" S2 result. He was being portrayed as an idiot while Bryce was being portrayed as a savant. All Stroud ever said was watch me play football. He proved his point.  Bryce did everything he could to make himself the number 1 overall pick and when that happens, guess where you're going? To a bad team, likely with a new coach and it's probably going to be full of dysfunction especially if the owner is Dave Tepper. But the real dysfunction came because Bryce wasn't Reich's choice for QB. He wanted Stroud because Stroud fit the type of offense he ran better than Bryce ever could. That's why he lost interest as soon as he was drafted. He was forced to play Bryce when it was obvious he wasn't ready to show off Tepper's shiny new draft pick. No HC is going to come to a team when he gets no choice over who he has as a QB to build around and he has to reinvent the wheel when the easiest thing to do was just buy the wheel that fit to begin with. Tepper lied to Reich all the way up until draft day, then he made that pick. Then Reich checked out, and i don't blame him one bit. And I'll be clear, I didn't want Reich. I wanted Steichen because of what he's doing in Indy or Ryans because I thought he would make one hell of a leader and HC.  Reich was a HC with no control over his own team. I put the majority of what's gone wrong involving Bryce on Tepper. The trade gave up too much in picks and DJ to build around him, we had a horrid GM who couldn't draft or build a roster, a QB forced to play before he's ready, an owner that thinks he knows more than football people.    There's a lot of moving pieces in all of this, but we cant pay Bryce 50m AAV at the end of this season while he figures it out, and the 5th year doesnt make sense either if we're a run heavy offense with Bryce as game manager. You dont need a 30m, 5th year option QB for that. If he's not there developmentally, he's not there.  Unfortunately, there isnt time to just calm down. He plays like a game manager this year and we have to move on. You dont give game managers huge contracts behind the highest paid oline in football, especially when you need to sign your LT. Any journeyman can give us Bryce level results for 15m less per year. Just the way it is. If there was more time, maybe. Unfortunately there isn't. Just the way it is. 
    • We’ve had opportunities to take 2 of the top 5 Cs in the game and instead we took TMJ and Johnathan Brooks. Our drafts since 2017 have been 1 player per draft and then huge misses on lots of really good NFL players (who the huddle have talk about in the draft threads). It’s been mentioned here so many times to draft more OL once you get to the 2nd and beyond since C/G talent is top tier in day 2 and lots of surprise day 3 guys. Taking Brooks over Frazier just looks worse and worse as our OL helps Chuba and Rico look great and Frazier would be a large improvement over Mays.
