Smitty and Roman Harper Article

This REALLY pisses me off...He really is trying to act as if he was simply defending his territory? I could see if Steve Waltzed in doing the PrimeTime high step...he literally just slowed down...that is all. It's just the most idiotic thing I've EVER basically seen in football. At least most dirty players aren't as blatant or can come up with a SEMI-legit reason for what they did.

i dont think smith cares. he proved he was a bigger man than their defense when he made that catch and threw jenkins (i think it was him "covering" smith) to the ground. then after the td showed them why they are his bitch.

Nah, it was Jabari Greer who he threw down lol

Only person who deserves an apology out of this whole ordeal should be Malcolm Jenkins. Harper got him embarrassed nationally by being a victim of the wrath of Smitty. Probably went home to his wife and kids and they just shook their heads at him

METAIRIE, La. (AP)—Saints safety Roman Harper(notes) sat in front of his locker wearing a big grin when asked for his reaction to a $15,000 fine the NFL levied on him for his late hit on Carolina receiver Steve Smith.

“My reaction to it is the smile on my face,” Harper said.

Harper shoved Smith to the ground as the receiver slowly crossed the goal line during the first half of the Saints’ 30-27 victory over the Panthers on Sunday. A brief scrum between the NFC South Division rivals ensued.

When asked if the fine was worth it, Harper responded, “Oh yes it was. I think the point was taken and everybody that needed to get the point got it.

“I think the NFL got the point. I got the point. Everybody that was involved got the point,” Harper continued. “So I think it was good for this team. I think it was good for everything.”

Harper had said after the game that he “just lost it” when he saw Smith slowing down in apparent celebration before crossing the goal line.

Smith said Harper misread the situation...

Harper: Fine for hitting Smith was worth it

Ut oh. Come January 1, Smitty's going to go all "Fred Smoot" on Harper...

    • This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.
    • That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the faviotes and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destorying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, no many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that denfese took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.   
    • Who cares if he paid for such small benefits out of his own pocket? The NCAA is a joke. They need to be offering such anyway, especially for Uber rides (which actually seems like a good idea).
