WR Steve Smith? Throughout the lockout there were rumors of teams such as the Ravens, Chargers and even the Bears making an offer to get the veteran out of Carolina. But according to reports, Smith is back in the mix. A true No.1 receiver—with down the field speed—outside of the numbers. Someone that will go make a play for the QB.

Actually a good write up.

I hope a team mate prints this off and slides it under his door @ Wofford!

WTF are you talking about? That was a compliment to Smitty...that with him we have a legit #1 WR with down field speed and can stretch the field on the outside (outside the numbers....between the numbers and the sideline).

How did you read it?

the whole thing was pretty complimentary towards everyone, even if it was a little ill informed about the work that newton has done to prepare.

btw, referring to this:

I don’t know how much we will see rookie QB Cam Newton early in the season for the Panthers without any offseason coaching and film work. It is going to be tough to get him acclimated to the pro game during the month of August alone.
most people seem to be overlooking the work he put in at IMG with weinke. it wasn't like he was sitting around doing nothing or just working out in a gym.

he got a good solid grasp on the playbook and ran through a lot of it. worked on the cadence and calling the plays. it would have been better working with chud and shula and his WRs, but i don't think he's nearly as behind as people think.

to be fair, the author did say good things about newton:

As for Newton? I think highly of the rookie and do believe he can be a unique talent in this league. A superior athlete. Now it comes down to coaching. But when he is ready, this offense is shaping up to give him the talent to succeed and play good football.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
