Smitty goes off on CLT on WFNZ

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

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.

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

[Panthera onca]

He didn't have any complaints back when he was playing on an NFC championship team.

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.

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.

Next thing you know, he'll be giving marriage advice......

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.

[Joe Bear]

He was always critical of DJ Moore, a player 100x as good as XL.

Steve smith is an absolutely horrible person

[WarPanthers89]

Steve’s starting to treat Charlotte like he treated his wife

Smith would’ve beat him up

great player.  Troubled human

[Proudiddy]

Yeah, ever since he got exposed for rearranging other men’s wive’s IUDs, raw dogging mind you, he has really let loose.  It’s a weak ass city you made your home and birthed and raised kids in.  STFU.
