makes a lot more sense now that g'man had smitty and roman harper pass in the hall on smitty's way out now.  the dickness of that move never made sense until now.

We literally were screaming it at everyone for years. Steve was a huge asshole in the locker room. And to make matters worse, his locker was in the middle on the way to the showers so everyone had to hear it. lol.

I hate when people that don't know how the Panthers roll always bring up the release of Smitty. He legit was a complete ass hole to Cam. Management and Gettlemen wanted Cam to be the leader going forward. Smitty didn't want to wait around for Cam to "get it." Smitty still probably wanted Jake Delhomme to be his QB, if we're honest.

Was him losing his poo at his kids flag football game before or after his release?

I think we all knew that he was an a**hole, and definitely that he had a harsh leadership style.  I didn't expect that he was being a d*ck to Cam.
Cam helped revive his career in that first year, Steve showed signs of regression his last year here, coupled with him getting injured.

Of course he bounced back with the Ravens tremendously, but just as with Cam...who knows if he would've had that Revenge Season mentality had he not been cut.

Everyone has said this for years. This is why Smith was let go. He was seen as detrimental to Cam's development. 

No, it wasn’t. Like with most of Gettleman’s bad decisions, it was because Gettleman wanted to prove his greatness.

That's "Steve's truth." He clearly still holds a grudge about DG. I'm sure DG has a different side to the story.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
