Nothing you say is truth.  Smith did more in the last week than you will ever do.  Go away loser 

Here you are calling a man who will be a Hall of Fame WR a shitty person.  So stupid.  Hide in your mothers basement and feel safe

feel free to ignore my posts if you feel that way

 

I guess you are a touch illiterate as well as I clearly said he was a great football player but being a shitty person has nothing to do with being a hof player.  And a "your moms basement" is a sick burn bro.

Grammar man…your punctuation tells me who I am dealing with here

Yeah, Smitty wasn't perfect and might be an asshole as a teammate or in general at times, but that doesn't necessarily make him a terrible human. Rae Carruth was a terrible human. Perhaps Aqib Talib, but certainly his brother, is a terrible person. Smitty did some bad things as a younger and immature man, but he's matured.

I watched Smith at a few OTAs just verbally abuse Dwayne Jarrett on the field and it was allowed by the coaches.  Not just once--all day long for several days.  I even told Jarrett to not let it get to him, and he--with a grimace and tight lip, slapped my hand very hard.  Smitty was in his head.

You could argue that Jarrett deserved it, but you could also argue that Smitty may have contributed to his failure as a player.  Think about it--how may WRs drafted or brought in after Smitty prospered here? 

So I am not sure Smitty would be coaching material.  He's an asshole.

Pressure builds Diamonds.

You either rise to the occasion or you get the phuck out.

I applaud Smitty. I don't want any fragile snowflakes on this team. And I don't tolerate them on my work team.

If you're constantly yelling / screaming / negative / whatever, It loses its effectiveness because people tune you out.

And that's everybody, not just "snowflakes".

Yeah great player but definitely not a leader or coach. JR canned his ass for that exact reason with Cam. They didn't trust him to not fug up his progress.

Of course not…lol

Steve Smith:  Hall of Fame player…misunderstood person.  Very insecure 

Quite possible.  Without his "chip on his shoulder" he would not have been the player he is.  It is not like the odds were ever in his favor.

I used to take a few days every year to go watch OTAs before they had the bubble and blocked the fencing.  Smitty really did not seem to have any relationship with any player--except John Kasay--which is an odd pairing but they used to warm up together, talking the whole time.  I never saw Smith "chatting" with any other player.  It is an odd pairing, until you think about it in depth--then it sorta makes sense.

Not getting into the actual argument itself….but being in or not in the HOF has nothing to do with a person being shitty or not.

there are horrible people in the HOF. there are horrible people in every sports HOF.   There are horrible people every niche and breakdown of people you can name.

    • Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
    • They might be ass but it’s the professional level like NFL!! I will take a win no matter what!! Still not over
    • So you are just going by what these analysts are saying. So if come draft time they say Ward/Sanders is worth pick 1 you should be good. The future draft QB class is always going to be projected as the next great thing until these young players start playing the game and scouts can see some flaws. Think of all of the high school phenoms that didn’t look as good in college.  If Manning does turn out to be the next great prospect only one team gets to draft him. Odds are someone else could get the top pick, especially if go all in on building a supporting roster. I’m never going to be a just wait another year guy, because there are so many variables. If our staff loves Ward/Sanders then we should just draft them with our pick. It’s as simple as that. I also might go with Hunter over TMac as WR1 in this class.  The roster has the OL to help a young QB, young weapons in Coker, XL, and JT to grow with a QB, and a RB who can catch in Brooks as a safety net for a young QB. Sign a vet WR, extend BC and our offense would be set outside of depth. Let our young offensive core go through their growing pains while we iron out the defense. It’s definitely a path forward.
