Steve Smith takes Cam over Tebow anyday.

Count Panthers receiver Steve Smith among those who aren't fawning over Denver quarterback The Golden Calf of Bristol.

While acknowledging The Golden Calf of Bristol's run of fourth-quarter comebacks, Smith said he'd still take Panthers rookie Cam Newton over The Golden Calf of Bristol any day.

“You can't compare Cam to The Golden Calf of Bristol. I think Cam's a more complete player,” Smith said. “The Golden Calf of Bristol has the wins. But everybody wants to crown The Golden Calf of Bristol. Yes, he has the will to win. I think The Golden Calf of Bristol is no different than any other professional. But The Golden Calf of Bristol has a great opportunity to play behind a great defense.”

Smith also took exception with characterizations of The Golden Calf of Bristol as a versatile quarterback.

“Versatile would mean you can throw the ball very accurately, run the ball, create things. And the only thing he's creating is running,”

For anyone asking him to compare Newton and The Golden Calf of Bristol, Smith had this response: “Come check me out in five years, jack, and you'll know who's the better quarterback

Hmmm

That is the second time in less than a week that it suggests Smith may want to play for five more years. That is largely due to his rejuvenation under Newton. I seriously doubt that he would be very excited to be playing with The Golden Calf of Bristol. And he would be nowhere close to 1000 yards.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
