What Do You Think About Steve Comments

[JungleCat]

I think it's coaching. Talent doesn't go away overnight.

I'm glad he's not a drama queen like T.O., and this WAS in the heat of the moment (he'll calm down this week), but everything has a bit of truth in it. This just affirms he thinks Jake isn't good enough, and they don't utilize him better. I understand he has two guys on him at all times, but we do next to NOTHING (sans the run) to make teams worry about ANYONE else. I feel bad for Smitty.

I love Steve and he has gotten us through some close games. However, utility is not always stat driven. If he wasn't on the field then we may not have ran as well that final drive. They still have to watch where he is. He also was covered very very well today. We all know we bitch about Jake throwing into coverage. He is just not getting separation. He has also dropped a few this year which is out of character. Bottom line, I hate when a player bitches about not being involved. If you are on the field, you are involved...ask Kalil, ask Conner, ask anyone who only plays ST's. Anyway, I am sorry Steve's upset but we won so on to next week where we get to play someone with an eerily similar attitude.

Steve's a competitor. He's frustrated after the game (and yeah, he should be).

But if we keep rushing for 250+ yards, teams will have to loosen up on Smitty. I still say we should throw the smoke route or quick slant to him at least once a half, and use the reverse or line him up in the back field at least once a game. Give him those 3 extra touches or so and he'll be a bit happier, and will make something positive happen on all of them...and he's liable to break one off.

But either way, he'll be fine by Tuesday's practice. Just post-game frustration.

Yea... thats not going to happen a lot for the rest of the season looking at our schedule. We rushed for that, and still coulda lost

Shows you that this league is changing. You have to pass and run effectively

I remember after the 2nd INT that went for a TD, the rest of the team was off the field quick and I seen Steve run over and was stopped by Feely, and Feely was saying something to him

[Tank]

Pretty sure Fox isn't worries about this either. Right?

[PantherBrew]

I wish Jake would have a "Phantom" injury, like a Shoulder strain that will cause him not to play.

[Jangler]

Ya know I have been joking around about our sorry team since the game ended...but this really brings me down....

[Gman was right]

Smith is such a diva! If he isnt the center of attention then he gets mad. Even if Fox is a total idiot.

When he got hit last week, I was hoping it would keep him out

[ladypanther]

Jake just lost his biggest (and perhaps last) supporter.

Smitty indicated his frustration was with the coordinator.

What Smitty thinks.

Although, I blame Fox more than Davidson.

He is frustrated, on the last drive they threw the ball once for 4 yards, Any receiver of his skills would be, if they were not involved in the offense. The OC can not call up plays to get him the ball and the QB can not get the ball to him. If we lose Smith there would not be a run game, because you would have 11 rushing the QB.

When he got hit last week, I was hoping it would keep him out. He's been hit a lot so far, and hasn't been injured yet. Its like he's destined to be our QB for the rest of the year

You better be glad rep isn't on....but I know how to bookmark so never mind.

Um...you DID see the two deep passes Jake threw to a wide-open Smith that had plenty of separation that he overthrew right? If Jake had hit those two passes (and both passes Jake had plenty of time to throw) then Smith would have had 2 TDs and a million yards and you wouldn't be saying anything about his inability to gain separation.
