Panthers Have No Interest in Shaun Smith


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

According to Gantt. Asked him on twitter and here was the response:

There is none. As in zero. RT @Proudiddy Darin, are you hearing anything about any #Panthers interest in "fresh off suspension" DT Smith?

about 1 hour ago from web

Cool of him to get back on that b/c despite all our interest as fans, apparently the team has none. Sucks...

As you were... Back to doom and gloom.

I hope he does do a small write up on it. I know he had the suspension for steroids and some character issues, but I think he would've been worth the gamble and possibly rejuvenate the defense.

But as you had pointed out in the other thread, it's not like our team doesn't have its share of past indiscretions.

It might be more Richardson not wanting him due to character issues rather than Fox/Hurney. Who knows.

Well then we should rally together, find Anthony Bright and bring him to Charlotte. Call Ken Lucas and have him fly down after Seahawks practice is over for the week. Call Shaun Smith.

Bring them all in Big Cat's office and let Shaun Smith give them both a blindsided haymaker.

BAM! He's on the team and signs a long-term extension effective immediately. Big Cat loves that stuff...

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
