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.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
