Recap of the comments please? I'm at work.

Rod Hood's quote on Steve Smith...."You look at and say look, he's a guy who makes plays, but yeah you can definitely stop him. I feel like anyone I go up against I can stop. As a defense we feel we can stop him...If you don't feel like you can stop him, then I don't know why you playing this game. So we definitely feel like we can stop em' and be successful defensively"

They consider holding Smith to five catches for 117 yards and two TDs is successful? I hope they have that kind of "success" again Saturday!

I was On PSD last night, the Cardinals board, One poster said that magical word "IF" here is his quote:

If you take out the 65 yard TD he had 4 receptions for 52 yards and 1 TD... So if Rolle takes away the big play, assuming the FS had deep help, then DRC did shut down Smith.

They are also proud of their 24 points in the last game. :hurray:

haha... i like the "if" game. basically what the conversation boils down to is: "if we can play well and beat them, then we will win." NO sh*t SHERLOCK! the issue is, whether the condition you're suggesting can be accomplished... the truth is nothing can be predicted.

any given sunday (saturday) fellas (and girls).

GO PANTHERS!

lol

what do expect the guy to say?

"Yes, I am Rod Hood playing in the playoffs, but I am going to mail it in cause Steve Smith will most likely play very well and beat me this Saturday...who's got my headdy tee-time?"

::rolls eyes::

Hood was talking with Kirwan on Sirius-NFL the other day and gave Smith a ton of props/credit and said Smitty made him a better player, etc.

Like the man said, if you really do not believe you can stop the man standing across from you, you have absolutely no business being on that field. All of these players are confident that they can beat the man across from them and that's why they are in the NFL.

And don't worry about Smitty. You all know that he does not require any bulletin board stuff to get fired up for a game.

Any team can stop Steve if they commit enough resources to it. The Seahawks proved that in the NFC Championship game a few years back. The problem is how do you stop everyone else if you do.

So the man goes into the game with confidence in himself and his team....whoa big deal. Nothing personal was said to Smith here.

If there's one thing I've learned about Smitty over the years, it's that comments like that are the equivalent of talking about his mamma! Smitty takes EVERYTHING personal. Just saying that they can shut him down is smack enough to give him the chip he needs.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By strato · Posted

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
