Steve Smith vs Champ Bailey. Who wins?

I agree with Orange, I don't think that Champ's groin is in good enough shape to hang with Smith. Especially as shifty and precise Smith can be in running his routes, I don't know if he could hang with him, unless they want to play a lot of zone coverage.

I think Smith will abuse the hell out of Bly though.

My blind homerism says Smith. Champ is still a top 10 CB at least. But he's not so good nowadays that QB's won't even look his way.

Jake will throw at him, I bet you $100. lol

He always trusts his guy to win esp. if it is Smitty.

Had he thrown better passes vs Nnamdi, Smitty would have had a few.

Champ will be more aggresive than most for a jump ball in the air, but I still think Smitty's determination is unmatched.

Dude with a recently busted groin ain't gonna be outrebounding a guy like Smitty who got a huge vertical leap. Smitty gonna get his. Count on it! And if Bly is on him, it's all good.

Good point. Smith also blocks well, runs great routes and does a great job after the catch. I really think that he would do well against almost any CB if our QB could consistently thread the needle. We all know that Jake does not operate that way so some CB's have an advantage in tight coverage because of that.

Our boy smitty will deff win, im not so sure he got absolutely burned against Aso from Oakland hard to tell Jake had an awful day. Smitty will win though, why wouldnt he? Hes the best WR in the NFL.

Neither funny, nor intelligent.

What's funny is Steve Smith has averaged 57 receptions, 820 yards, and 5 touchdowns a year. OVERRATED. Do not ever again consider him the best wide receiver in the NFL.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
