I thought Steve Smith said a few years ago that he wanted to be the first Panther in the Hall Of Fame. He bitched last year because of the QB situation. Now we have a " Blue Chip" QB in Cam Newton. Still Steve Smith

wants to leave. Sounds like the same story when Steve Smith and Moose

were broken apart. What could have been will never be !!!!!!!!!!!

Every time I see a post with Steve Smith in the title I feel like I need to run around my office screaming "The sky is falling!"

If he's actually gone then did you really want him here in the fame of mind he must be in to continue to ask to be traded?

Big picture people...

Smitty wants a QB that can throw to him now, no possibly in time. The problem with your scenario is you are assuming Cam will be pan out but even more, be elite and from the sound of your post quite instantly at that, which is cool but Smith won't see it like that he knows better. He knows his chances greatly improve moving on to another team that isn't so young and still learning, whether the fans realize that or not. He can still retire a panther and he will be considered a panther in his HOF status as well IMO, but I can guarantee you smitty wants a ring much more than HOF.

Wait... Steve Smith wants to go somewhere that doesn't have very inexperienced QBs...? Shocking.

Cam Newton is still a rookie. He is also facing the possibility of a significantly shorter off-seaosn than most rookies get, especially considering we can't negotiate a contract with him until the lockout is lifted.

You might struggle to believe this, but Cam Newton is less proven than Matt Moore was going into last season. You might also struggle to believe that some people still aren't convinced about Cam Newton as a QB, Steve Smith might be one of them. You might also struggle to believe that Newton might not actually start from day 1.

Brings a good question to raise...... who is the most likely first HOF Panther?

Technically Reggie White is (he's the only name listed under our team on the players by team list) if you want to be reeeeally literal about it.

In the spirit that the question was asked though this person has not played for us yet IMO. We haven't had any HoF caliber careers going.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
