Baldwin and Chancellor

Somehow make it happen

You must not be paying attention. Those two were released because they can no longer play due to injury. By releasing them Seattle did them a favor as Baldwin is under contract for example and would have to pay back close to 3 million if he retired. But neither of them can still play.

I wish Baldwin would be able to play. I'd sign him up in a heartbeat. I've always been a fan, and he's honestly the closest thing to Smitty imho that there has ever been since Smitty.

Baldwin is nothing like Smitty on the field. He’s a not explosive slot receiver who’s dependable and sure handed and that’s pretty much if. Smitty was a matchup nightmare on the outside against double and triple coverage with elite speed, agility and tackle breaking ability.

I am not sure there is another WR I can think of who is like Steve Smith. People forget how truly unique he was in a lot of ways. He played like a 6-3 or 6-4 WR.

You're crazy. Adjust the color settings/edit this to Panthers uniforms and a lot of these plays mirror Smitty's highlights.

 

From the mannerisms, to the hands, to the YAC.

No, he isn't Smitty or on Smitty's level. But he's the closest thing to a mirror of Smitty that the league has ever seen.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
