Smitty to Chargers rumors heating up

[The_Cannon]

Smitty is the only player in the panthers history who has given 110% every play every year. I look at him as a Ray Lewis type when it comes to passion for the game. he endured high ball jake for 7 years. Remember the giants game when Jake set him up to get his arm broken? he stuck by this team, he's paid his due's. if he wants to go let him go it will definitely be a sad day in Carolina, but to say he isnt sticking by his franchise is crazy!

If he ASKS to leave this team, then he is not sticking by this franchise. He's leaving. Does he have everyright to leave? Hell yea he has everyright to leave. But he's still abandoning this team in it's dark hour when we stood by him during his.

i feel bad for him

[Mr. Scot]

Can we ever get f*cking players to retire here? Jeez this is pure bullsh*t

I'd rather get something back for him than have a last few years that turn out to be more sentiment than production.

if he goes anywhere I hope it's the chargers. They have Rivers, a native NC Stater, and I think he would succeed there.

I'm really not sure Smitty would know what to do with a QB who puts the ball where it's supposed to be, when it's supposed to be there.

Send his a$$ to cleveland!

He most def is someone you don't want pissed off in the locker room.

He's a hot head with a little man complex who basically ended two guys careers because they looked at him wrong.

That is the very last thing a 1st year head coach needs is some temperamental guy who many look up to in the LR challenging his authority.

Seriously. Oakland can't be much better.

That's one thing about the Pats I like. You don't want to play here? Kewl. How does Buffalo sound for the next two years?

Smitty is not going to go ANYWHERE and be what he was in the early to mid 2000's. He is getting old, gets hurt (on and off the field), spats with teammates, is too outspoken given his production, and has a general bad attitude. He'll fit in nicely in a Jets uniform.

Sure JR and Hurney drafted him, and they did stand by him with the whole Lucas situation. On the field however, we haven't done him any favors.

If we HAVE to lose him at least get a veteran Wideout in return V-Jackson sounds good plus would be sad but nice to see Smitty get a chance at a ring elsewhere with Rivers.

The Chargers will not trade a kings ransom (VJ) for a player well past his prime.

Plus SS doesn't fit thier offensive game plan nearly as much as VJ.

I've never really understood the rationale behind position for position trades.

Rarely makes sense to me either unles you are doing a major scheme change.
