Chances of bringing back Steve Smith?


App Panther

Recommended Posts

No I don't want it. I don't want it for the Panthers. I don't want it for Steve. I don't want it for his kids and his family.

Here's what I want: the panthers to win and Steve can't help the Panthers do that.

You know what else I want? For Steve to happy. And I don't think he will be happy playing for the Panthers at this point. He hasn't been training. he's not in shape. He said he didn't want to. He wants to take care of his kids.

Lastly, I want panthers fans to root for the panthers and be engaged with the team. I loved Steve and I always will, but as a panthers fan, I have other favorite panthers. Players who are actually playing...on the Panthers team....currently.

 

That's what i want

There's no way he's in football shape. This isn't like the post 2010  Terrell Owens situation when he was literally training his ass off and would jump at the first team that would sign him . Smitty has a career and has said he left for his family about a million times by now. It would make him look bad if he went back on his word and came back right now . Its pure sentimental value that would only make sense if he hadn't retired like Peppers situation. If he was just a free agent that wasnt picked up, I'd be all for it.

If you saw his interview on the Rich Eison show you'll know that if he comes back he is facing a suspension for missing some drug tests. He goes over how/why in that interview. Doubt we'd be bringing him back to ride the pine for 4-6 games or whatever it would be since it was like 3 missed tests if I remember correctly.

    • when we drafted Bryce Young that team might have been more talented than the team we currently have ?  that was the whole reasoning behind morgagting  our immediate future to trade up to #1 overall for BY. our front offices & owners felt like hey guess what the time is now to srike while the iron is hot go hire an All Star coaching staff we were only a Qb away from taking that next step ..just saying   
    • I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.
    • I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.
