Smitty

This guy has to give the credit he deserves, 922yds(22nd in the NFL), 60catches, and 6tds in the situation he has been stuck in!!! and some people want this guy gone pffffffffff. To put up those numbers with one of the worst quarteback situations in the league this year and also the probably the worst supporting receiving corps in the nfl, I think deserves more credit than has been given to him. Surround him with 1-2 more guys with speed/descent route running ability and stability at QB and he has 2-4 more 1300 yd seasons in him, especially if we can bring in another guy to stretch the field and use smitty more in the slot (somewhat like welker is used). The guy is still a top 10 reciever in the league and will be that for probably 2 more years IMO. This team has the talent we just have to sure up a few spots (I think QB and reciever mainly). I am looking forward to this offseason, hopefully it will be an eventful one i.e. coaching/GM changes and FA acquisitions hopefully. We are not far away from being a contender again but the window i believe is the next 2 yrs, just my overly-optimistic opinion i guess.

    • So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk. 
    • Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
