When we were talking about which player was the premier icon, i guess a year or two ago this poll was posted, the most valuable player for the Panthers, it was between Steve Smith and Julius Peppers. A lot of people voted for either, I voted for Smith, and people said Julius was more important.

Well, fast forward, Smitty signs a contract extension to keep him here, and Peppers wants to take his ball and go elsewhere. And A LOT of that was based on Smitty's character compared to Peppers. Many thought Peppers was the one who would stay a career Panther, but I guess that's not going to happen.

Turns out, at least IMO, Smitty's character is what compelled him to stay here. He is passionate about what he believes in, and for every one time he puts you down, he will pick you up 1000 times. As much as we all bashed Delhomme for his performance (5 interceptions, 1 fumble, yes our grumblings are justified BTW) he was right there to pick Delhomme back up when he was in a bad spot on the sideline, telling him he's his guy no matter what. That's a teammate, and I'd rather have 22 starters who have the same mindset as Smith than 22 starters who have the same mindset as Peppers.

So let me take this chance to honor my favorite all-time Panther, Smitty.

      Bills predictions

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      I’ve heard that Vegas looks at only 3 things when predicting games and setting the line 1. HC     2  Qb       3. Injuries  If that flash card is true, then it is the Bills to win   Add to it, , the Bills have lost 2 in a row and coming off a bye   They cannot afford to allow the Patriots to hang around by getting a 3rd loss.   That does not bode well for Carolina  to me though  1. it is all on the Panthers oline.  If Lewis returns at full strength, and perform at a high level, huge. 2 the defense needs to pressure and spy on Allen. Stop Allen and you stop the Bills   He is their biggest threat  he will make plays but make him pay for every single one  3. Canales, lord have mercy, for the love of god, don’t overthink this…start Rico, run Rico and no trick plays…      START RICO.  RUN THE BALL WITH RICO. RUN THE BALL WITH RICO        Control,the clock   Keep Allen on the bench        IF YOU ARE GOING  To PASS, PLAY ACTION ON FIRST  DOWN If 1 thru 3 happen            Panthers 30.  Bills 28 and joy reigns in the Queen City

      To be fair we don't know how Mccaffrey would have looked had he been drafted by the Saints with Sean Peyton and Drew Brees Nor how Kamara would have looked with Mike Shula.
