Three things I liked about Jimmy:

He definitely is more patient, maybe a little too patient at times, but he isn't giving up on plays like he did last year

He was great in the pocket, and I liked the effort of him trying to extend plays.

He showed thick skin, after a pick 6 and the booing he did great on the rebound, gotta give him props.

Jimmy did well tonight. He did hold on to the ball a bit long, but he waits for the plays to develop....he's not a read and run QB. The INT was three-fold, D-Will didn't turn to look for the ball, Jimmy held it and had a defender partially hanging on him and mis-fired when he did let it fly.

Jimmy was a much changed from last year QB. People will continue to hate on Jimmy because he is Jimmy and they refuse to forgive him his rookie mistakes. The early pic 6 was pretty terrible. Last year he would have folded. Tonight he ce back and threw a great score. He messed up then came back and made up for it.

Besides, this is the first game of the preseason and on a shortened off season with a new offense. I will say I am definately looking forward to the rest of the season. Jimmy or Cam, whoever is taking snaps for the Panthers has my 100% support.

Jimmy does have a bad habit of just expecting players to be on point. He doesn't realise that sometimes his recievers are thinking something else and that leads to picks. Regardless, he did good tonight. There are still some small things he has to work on, like pocket presence, but it's pretty encouraging. By the way, it's pretty easy to look like you're holding onto the ball for too long if no one's getting open.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
