I'd like to see these two in a skills competition..... send them both down the field and throw up a "hail mary" and see which one comes down with it!!! Wow, they have to be the two best frisbee catchers in the league.. It would be worth the price of admission.

You may be right, but I'd never bet against Smitty on anything... he's just way too savy... Not sure how he does it, but he always does... Imagine having Smitty on one side and Fitz on the other.... How would you stop that?

My money would be on Fitz, Smitty is great but Fitz just is a freak.

In terms of ball skills, Fitzgerald is the best in the league, better than Randy Moss too. He catches with his hands more than anyone.

I love Smith's explosiveness everywhere on the field though, he isn't like other receivers who are effective down the field but not too short, Smith's effectiveness is the same everywhere he goes

Yeah he's more physical than Moss, and has unreal body control as well. I love to watch him. I would say he and Smitty are 1 and 1a, with Fitz maybe having a slight edge solely due to his height which certainly is no fault of Smitty's.

Was interesting to hear Key praising Fitz for that "throw into double coverage" without criticizing Warner. :)

Man, I like Moose, but that would be awsome.

You know, on the Panthers Huddle last night, they broke down that play in New Orleans where Jake supposedly threw it into double coverage to Smitty. It turns out that Smitty actually had seperation when Jake threw that ball, but because he was about to get nailed, he couldn't get enough on the ball and it hung up long enough for the defenders to get there.

They showed it on the game tape, where you can see everything on the field instead of just either the QB or the WR like you see on TV.

I'd take Smitty even if it was playing marbles, tiddlywinks, or knitting cause they guy is just a competitor....plain and simple.

He has the heart, drive and desire to be a winner, and he will always come out on top in my book.

NUFF said. :cheers2:

Smith Demands more Coverage in games and I've never seen Fitz catch a ball sitting down. No one extends like Smith and attacks the ball IMO and as good as Fitz is he still dose not demand the respect Smith dose. I think people just expect Smith now to do what other WRs do with single coverage because he has been doubled for so many seasons now. IMO Moss and Smith are still the best WRs in the game because of how you have to play them but Fitz is a close second and has had a great season this year.

      The new (released today) FOX ONE app will allow you access to watch your Local FOX Station - similar to how the Paramount Plus app allows you access to watch your local CBS station It'll cost you $20/month for the privilege, but if you're having trouble accessing the over-the-air antenna for FOX, this could be an option to consider the new ESPN app will give you access to ESPN content, but not to the local ABC affiliate. A reminder: if you currently get ESPN via some TV provider (cable, satellite, youtube, etc) then you should be able to use the new ESPN app via your provider login, no additional payment required

      XL went to one of the worst teams in the NFL.  One that features a weak passing O and bad overall QB play on the season.   XL is getting way too much hate IMO.   He had an okay rookie season all things considered.   Very much on par w/ prospects that projected around the same area with him.   Panthers made a 2nd rounder a first round technicality for that contract.  XL also getting this weird kicker type blame for games.  XL somehow single handedly lost us games on one play.....and then we ignore the rest of the team that went about losing the game for 4 quarters.   Should he of caught the Philly ball? 100%.  The O and D still played like garbage that entire game.  Even after the drop, Panthers had two shots starting w/ a 3rd and 4 to convert.  They kept playing bad instead.  And even if we XL made the play....Philly would have had a minute and half to get into FG range to win it.  Who is banking on the Panther D getting that stop?  also, I am deemed Mr. Negative, yet here I am defending a no good dirty Gamecock lol
