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.

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
