I was listening to SS on The Kyle Bailey Show yesterday, and he went off on Charlotte fans for them being down on XL and the team in general. Called Charlotte a “weak ass” city. I kind of get his POV as he saw it personally as a player, but damn, the fans can only handle so much losing. And yes, I am aware of my username, but I do actually like Charlotte fwiw

He speaks on it around the 8 minute mark.

Smith was a great player in the NFL but his opinions can be very hit or miss. It’s hard to defend XL’s numbers especially when our other first round pick is getting heavier coverage which should free him up. Effort shows on film and you can’t  deny that he has had lackluster blocking, route running, and most importantly RESULTS.

He needs to actually watch him play.

It's year 2 and they had to spend a top 10 pick on a guy who he could have been. Put up or STUF

Yeah, Smitty is talking as an announcer. Would Smitty have said that if he was playing on the same team as XL and watched XL kill a drive because he couldn’t drag his toe on the third step? I don’t think so.

89 has turned into a clown. 

Hit folks with the if you didn't play above HS level ball you really shouldn't talk about NFL players sucking lol.  

yeah, Steve,we will.  I bet if your insurance agent sucks butt at his job....you are going to comment on it without having your insurance license. 

I don't need to of played in the NFL to know XL isn't even meeting HS level expectations....walking back to the line in a hurry up.    I have known my share of NFL folks over the years.  They aren't all super humans w/ advanced football IQ brains.    Some are just insane athletes.  It's why the NFL career is so short. 

and don't get me started on the good ole boys club of coaching.  Just like everywhere else, lots of bad folks are working in the NFL because of who they know....just like literally every other profession on the globe.

XL's jaw would already be wired shut from when 89 broke it.  89 would have HATED XL. HATED.  He checks all the boxes of what 89 hated.    First round pick.  Commercials.  Money.  No play.

We root for players that clearly try and that show some potential. They don't need to be super stars even. Of course, when they show early potential (Coker) or are already making a major impact (T-Mac) we are pretty damn excited about them. And many of us made excuses for XL last year, but this year... Man, he's just not it.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that.

      I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something.

      But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
