A closer look at the Smitty scuffle (Video)

Yeah, because trying to break someone's neck (who didn't even hit you, or do anything) is "cool". He should have been ejected from the game for that stunt. If he was mad about what Harper did, then he should have got in his face, instead of picking on the smallest person on the Saints D.

Picking the smallest person? Are you fuging serious? Steve Smith is 5'9. And your sentence isn't even coherent. That Louisiana education showing it's worth. :rolleyes:

Oh my god. Malcolm Jenkins just got a whole new lesson in learning the rules and regulations of the game. Even if Harper laid out the cheap shot, Jenkins was just as guilty for sticking up for him.

The Saints are such a dirty team. Remember when Fujita went for Smitty's knees a few years back on the opposite side of a play? I hate the Saints with a passion.

Jenkins shouldn't have been there. Why the fug were any of the Saints there? Steve walked away from Harper, that should have been the end of it. So fug the Saints and their make-believe tough bullpoo, they'll get cracked in the fugging face next time too.

Smitty: 5-9, 185 lbs.

Harper: 6-1, 200 lbs.

Jenkins 6-0, 204 lbs.

More Saints fan "intelligents"

So let me get this straight you are saying Smitty is being a bully to someone else. Smith is smaller than 95% of people in the league.....also if you are admitting that your starting free safety is smaller than your corners you've got issues

Edit: it is baffling how terrible that post is

I'm not going to sit here and be childish about it, or argue over a few pounds of body weight. Ok, so Jenkins is a littler taller, and weighs more. Who do you think is stronger where it counts in a contest of trying to rip a head off?

Harper was wrong. Period. He should have been penalized for what he did. But, trying to pick someone up by the face mask is insane. I have no problem admitting what Harper did was wrong. The problem that I have is you guys can't seem to do the same. Smith was wrong for what he did, and he could have seriously injured a player that wasn't even involved.

    • I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.
    • Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.  
    • Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
