Is Steve Smith getting..

Yea... ummm.... no WR in the NFL can get open on Revis. Sorry. Not Moss, not Marshall, not Wayne, not White, not Colston, not Ginn Jr., not Owens, not Holmes, not Ochocinco, not Holt, not Andre Johnson, not No ONE.

Revis has shutdown Moss twice and Andre Johnson this year and they have actual QBs throwing to them. Smith had Revis beat on that wound duck deep ball that was picked off. Wide open receivers happen from confusing a defense with routes and misdirection. How often do we run a play that turns out to not be what it appears or get a defense to bite with a double move and pump fake? Jake is so bad now none of that even matters. He's just as likely to throw a pick or incompletion when trying to hit a covered receiver or wide open one.

Steve looked to have him beat on the 2nd INT, yet, Delhomme threw the worst duck up and they both had to stop, (actually Steve even had come come back) just to make a play on it.

Jake throwing a ball is like a punt return chance for the other team.

Jake can't throw the deep ball and hit Smith in Stride, its really always been this way but worse now then in past. The 2nd INT, would've been a TD with a good pass/qb

The first was obviously a fluke play, Jake was not on same page with Smith/Moose. Had smith been were ball was thrown, after it hit ground at his feet Moose would've collided with him. Moose was coming to where ball was thrown on his route. Smith was going deeper.

There is a few articles claiming STeve got shut down. I'm not saying that Revis didn't do a great job and isn't elite. I just think if you write about this poo for a living you should mention the QB who was throwing the damn ball. Like others have said on here I think steve had position a few times.

    • You're equating wins with evolving, but It's a little more complex than that. This will be the new managment's third season. It will also be the third season where the Teppers have taken a step back. If you think that the only way to measure improvements due to seeming changes for the better is wins and losses after only two years--one being a playoff berth, "limping" in there or not, then perhaps you're being more emotional. By most analysts' measure, Dan Morgan has the Panthers moving in the right direction. He can only get us to where we need to be with the blessing and cooperation from the owners. He has said several times now, that they are easy to work with. Rhule, Reich and Fitterer did not say that. In fact, you could literally see the pressure put upon them by their countenance.  Bottom line: it has been reported that they have changed and everything that we've seen (and not seen) is indicative of that belief. We were a playoff team, and we had a good showing. With the moves that have been made this offseason, and last offseason to be honest, NFL types are expecting the Panthers to compete for the division the upcoming season, and that's even before the draft. This is all with a QB that is still a question mark.  Rome wasn't built in a day. David Tepper has seemed to internalize that, and now many fans need to appreciate the same. It could be argued that we didn't have any business winning the games we did in '24 or '25, much less make the playoffs this past season. A positive transition appears to be afoot. We are close to becoming a perennial contender, and that's thanks to a developing culture change that is being allowed to happen. This was not the case when the Teppers, particularly David, were fumbling around trying to figure out how to run an NFL franchise.   
    • Dude is a beast on ST. I like the emphasis on special teams with him and Simmons.
    • Yeah looks good on paper, but the proof is in the pudding
