The one thing I hate about sports is this "team first" mentality crap. A GM can cut a dude that has been with the team for 10 years if he gets hurt, and he did whats best for the team, but a FA (Pep for example) chooses to GTFO of a sinking ship, and he is a trader smh...

Smitty has been here a while, and imo, is a hall of famer. The best Carolina Panther ever, played with passion every single game, and never bitched or moaned (at least not in public). Sure, he has a big ass mouth, but what WR in 2010 doesn't? He has done everything we could have asked of him, and more. I want to see him win a ring, because nobody deserves it more...but thats not happening here. I heard the Packers made an offer...please, if a contender wants him, and they are giving us good value, make the deal. Its only fair to him.

the Packers did not make an offer on Smith, lol. Where do people get this poo? I mean, did someone really claim that happened? No offense intended.

Packers need a RB something fierce.

Smith shouldn't go anywhere, and we have no idea if he wants to.

YOu idiots missed my point. For once, the FO should put the player first, and try to do whats best for him. I bet if Smitty came out today and demanded a trade all of you would cry and bitch and moan about it, and call him a trader, but as soon as the FO cuts somebody, they did it for the team....

All I'm saying is give the guy a chance to win...

I don't like that "trade him to a team where he can win a ring" stuff. what if he's sent to a team that ends up like us? we did go from winning the NFC south to finishing the next 8-8 and missing the playoffs, and now this disaster of a season. the only thing that would accomplish is setting our team back years.

did anyone expect the Chiefs to play the way they're playing this season after being awful last season? the Dolphins went from winning one game to winning the AFC East and making the playoffs. the Packers were awful in Rodgers first season too.

you don't trade star players unless you have someone proven and waiting on the bench ready to start, which we obviously don't at wide receiver.

No, we understand completely what you're saying. But cutting Smith would make this horrible team even worse. What fan of this team would want that?

Every team would love to have him. With our incredibly young team I wouldn't be surprised if he is the leader of this team in the locker room. You can't trade that anymore than you can a corner stone. He is the foundation of this team who is under contract and has a reducing salary mind you. He is here for good. I hope he wins a ring

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
