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'm All In On Drafting a QB in Round 1

      By 45catfan · Posted

      So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.

      I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.

      Hornets vs Wizards 10/26 Game Thread

      Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
