Steve Smith Rips into Panthers WRs, "They may draft a WR in the 1st this year that will actually give good effort"

Smitty was on WFNZ earlier

- said 49ers are a good team, Panthers are a avg team

- they asked you wont see that type of blowout again.  Smitty: "Is #64 going to be on the field?" "Your going to get beat, this is a copy cat league.  You dont think Edge Rushers like Cam Jordan arent going to watch that tape?"

 

Then he ripped into the WRs.  "Anytime the Panthers play a good defense, they struggle."  "Tennessee has some good CBs".

Then goes onto "they cant beat Press, cant beat Zone, they give lackluster effort"  the Panther will be drafting in the 20's, and there are a lot of good WRs there.  And it wont surprise me that they will draft a WR who will give good effort"

He's telling it like it is.

He have been high on Moore initially, and while Moore may put up decent numbers for the whole year, he certainly hasn't established himself as a true WR1.

And Samuel hasn't performed exceptionally either.

I still believe they both have the talent, but the production hasn't been there, and according to someone who is qualified to make the judgement, neither is the effort.

Hopefully this will light a fire under them.

Uh, didn't he say that they drafted his replacement with Moore? 0.o

I mean you can be high on a guy coming out but then they flop and some times lack of effort.  If not, there would not be such thing as a bust

Just now, ncfan said:

I mean, when they start to ball out, yes they arent labeled a bust.  Thats kind of how it works

.....well first and foremost the point here is that flip flopping like that is ass. 

 

Secondly if that's the case no one is ever wrong about any player then. Because they can 'change' their mind about them after the fact. 

 

Thirdly, if you're labeling Moore as a 'bust' as of now in his second year, then you're not understanding positions or what the word bust actually means. This isn't geared towards you specifically, i'm saying this in general.  WR usually take longer to develop and make an impact. As of now Moore has been more on the average side than the bust side. For the year and half he's been here. I wouldn't label him a bust just yet, seems to me that Smith taking the hot take on this. The loss was horrible but the WR's were the least of the worries to be completely honest.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
