Fox may meet with Smith about his comments

"Panthers coach John Fox said “possibly” he’ll talk to WR Steve Smith about his comments after the Sunday’s game. Smith told reporters that he doesn’t feel like an asset to the team after catching just one pass for 4 yards. Carolina ran 48 times for 267 yards."

Why doesn't he JUST DO IT instead of telling the press he might?

:rolleyes:

Because he has to talk to reporters?

reporter: are you going to talk with Smith about his comments?

Fox: possibly

Steve will talk will a lot of people about it, he's just frustrated and has reason to be. However, he's not getting open like he usually does and the OL isn't holding up as well agaist the rush. It's an offense thing, not just a Steve thing.

There were some breakdowns in protection, but for the most part the Oline played really well. Jake fails at decision making, holds onto the ball for too long, and has no sense of when the rush is coming.

I know Jake can find Smith if he has 10 seconds to throw the ball. However, so can any QB at the NFL level. If that's what you need, you're not good.

For once Fox was right on. He was straighforward. Anyone who saw the game yesterday knows that Smitty was doubled all day and rarely open. What Smitty actually needs to do is remain patient and keep pluggin away until he gets his. While defensive players are largely fiery, Offensive players need to be more patient and calm. Both Jake and Smitty suffer from too many negative emotions particularly at the wrong time. It actually hinders both their performances contrary to popular belief.

    • I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model. But nope, every one of them makes dozens of duplicate threads filling up pages upon pages as soon as their account goes live.
    • lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
