Actually tied for second. His yards per catch are down this year but still respectable at 15.4. Its been a tough year for Smith. His success with Moore has to be a fresh breath of air during a stale season. I am looking forward to Sunday to see if Moore's next chapter is a thriller or a tragedy.

For Matt I sure hope it's a thriller. For the panthers and the fans, well thats up to Fox... All tho If he finishes the rest of the year strong, it helps his chances of being the starter next season. I like the guy and certainly can see him as the Panthers New QB.

As far as Smitty go's, I hope he has enough pounding years left in him to get a ring with the panthers, IMO he deserves one. Either way he won't be forgotten as one heck of a football player.

Its amazing that he has over 1000 yards and was thrown to by Jake most of the season. Thats the equivalent of Ryan Leaf throwing passes to you.

I think at this point we don't have to make comparisons to describe Jakes' ineptitude.

''...thrown to by Jake...'' is now universally considered to be a poor performance.

''...thrown to by Jake is like getting thrown to by Jake Delhomme.''

Shouldn't come to a surprise. He went over 1,000 with Vinny and Carr throwing to him as well.

yes but then (and very similar to now) he took off when Moore started. Mainly the Dallas game back then. The dude was on fire. Very similar numbers to the other night's Minnesota game. And not just those. Look at the numbers from the two games with Moore under center in 07 and 09.

(Note: I'm throwing the Bucs games out. 07 they rested their starters. 09 Their starters just sucked, lol)

'07 v Seattle and Dallas : 17 Catches 209 Yards 1 TD Longest Play : 57 Yards.

'09 v New England and Minnesota : 11 Catches 240 Yards 2 TD Longest play: 45 yards

Keep in mind 30 of those yards are courtesy of the hook and ladder right before the half in the NE game. But the similarities are undeniable. In both seasons it was clear that Smith was more dynamic and the deep threat more apparent with Moore than the QB at the time (07 it was Vinny and Carr and 09 its Jake.) Both of these season for Smith were similar in being he seemed to be having a down year. This year he had one 100 yard receiving game prior to Minnesota and that was against Atlanta back in week 2 when he had 131 yards. In 2007 apart from the first 3 games of the year when Jake was absolutely INSANE (9 TDs to 2 picks) he had one 100 yard game against the cardinals. Apart from that there were 8 games of mediocre football. In those 8 games he maxed out at 64 yards... not to mention the back to back games of 14 and 15 yards... yuck.

Case and point being that Smitty has a pretty good connection with Moore and that I think Moore is the reason Smith got the 100 yards in 07 and he'll be the reason he gets it again this year :D

:rant:

    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
