1 Player The Carolina Panthers Must Bench Immediately WR Torrey Smith

I know its BR and I don't agree with the article... but  our deep threat has yet to catch a single deep ball.  After game four, we'll have completed a quarter of the season.  The giants secondary is crap.  He really needs to show something this week or there will more calls that we should give the snaps to Moore.

Yeah the weirdest thing about Torrey Smith is he's not even running any deep routes.

He's a dude that's run one route his entire career and we're trying to send him five yards across the middle it makes no sense.

First play of the game against the Bengals he dropped a deep one.  It was a hard catch, but it looked catchable and would have been amazing.  Instead, 2nd play we run CMC for a yard.  Then on third down Smith runs his route short of the sticks and doesn't get the first down.  3 and out.

I mean, I'd still give him a shirt on game day but if Curtis Samuel is 100% go, he should start getting most of Torrey's snaps in 2 WR sets.

Norv Turner just admitted yesterday that we've been playing the short game. And yet people just ignore the facts, because it doesn't fit their agenda.

And it's stupid to have Torrey on the field since he has questionable hands and can't make anyone miss

when you're throwing to the sticks, you gotta have reliable receivers who can hopefully beat the first man to them.

Curtis Samuel bout to blow up Sunday and make this dude a cheerleader.

Soo and the point is?

1. Smith is know as a deep shot only guy his whole career, so the short game doesnt fit him at all= he needs to be benched

2. When we have taken a few deep shots, he a. has struggled to get open and b. struggled with drops= he needs to be benched.

 

 

And if we're using the Norvs short game as a way to defend Smith's inability so far.  Moore when brought in, was said we see him in short play to start more than anything.  To get the ball in his hands and let him make plays.

 

Theres no way to defend, the dude needs to be benched

Deep threats have to run short routes as well, otherwise the cb will just play 10 yards off.  Deep balls can't be thrown all the time, but if they hit your hands, you need to catch them.  Torry has been dropping short and deep balls.  Hopefully that ends Sunday.

There's no agenda.  Torrey Smith sucks.

so let them play ten yards off and send someone into that part of the field.

The fact is Torrey has never been a short game receiver in his career so why is he playing or running those routes?
