Perhaps the Panthers dodged a bullet. Jeudy traded to the Browns for a 5th and 6th round picks

His employer may have told him to apologize, but I seriously doubt they tell him how to analyze. America still has freedom of speech (for now).

You have the freedom of speech but you don't have the freedom of employment. They told him to dial it back and outside of the heat of the moment he complied. That's personal growth from Smitty.

 

 

 

 

But he was right.

Freedom of Speach has absolutely nothing to do with your employer.

All that's great, but let's stop acting like we know that Smitty was told to dial it back. We don't. Moreover, It was actually great for ratings. Smitty likely listened to some of his peers (like Keyshaun and Michael Irvin) who put something on his mind, and after thinking about it and analyzing the situation, Smitty changed his tune (and, yes, that is personal growth). 

As far as whether he was right about what type of receiver Jeudy is, I'm going to take Smitty for his word: if he did more analysis and came to a more thoughtful conclusion, I'm going to take him for his word. He's not a bullshitter and never has been (job or not).

Every time I see an employee fired for some HR violating "free speech" I always laugh.

All they had to do was wait until they were outside the company premises(and not actively representing the company) and they can say the most wild and offensive poo on the planet with little repercussion(minus social media).

But you thought free speech had anything to do with your employer. And clearly read absolutely nothing of the employment agreements you signed nor any HR policy.

In the end, the trash usually takes itself out.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
