I haven't seen this posted.

I recall hearing CC stating that he spoke with Smitty before the game and Smitty made the comment about he wanted the team to bring in a #1 receiver to take the prerssure off of him. Then, Costas said something to likes of "Well Smith is the #1 who would they bring in?" Not 100% certain the exchange between the two but it perked my ears

If someone else heard this, please explain more for me

If someone DVR'd the game and you're going to watch the game again, let me know the dialog. I foound that comment interesting

claimed Smitty said he is ready for Carolina to bring in a #1 WR so the load isn't on him and he can just play the slot (I think they were implying that just play the slot as tongue in cheek). CC said doesn't matter who they brought in Smitty wouldn't be able to get away from being the #1 b/c of how good he is.

that is paraphrasing it.

I would rather have a Welker type receiver to keep defenses honest. Don't get me wrong though, I wouldn't turn down a Brandon Marshall or Boldin, but having a receiver like Welker to help convert those 3rd and medium-long's would be amazing.

steve smith IS wes welker. We need a guy to replace smitty so he can go back to the good ol' days of being in the slot tearing it up on slants.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
