Ronde Barber: Steve Smith toughest receiver to cover

[Cam2Ligit2Quit]

Ronde Barber Quote 

"But to me, Steve Smith was the toughest guy I faced. When I played him, he was just like me. He chose to outwork everyone else out there every day. That was me."

Hey Ronde... "Duh"

[Who Said What?]

Thank you captain obvious.  I cannot believe at one time people thought he was not the best Steve Smith in the league.  Where is that other guy now?

[Wesmesss]

Loathe the Bucs. Never disliked Ronde. Classy guy who played the game the right way. And after reading this it's obvious he lives by the term "real recognize real."

[Zod]

How witty with your snide remarks.

 

One of the best CBs in NFL history is retiring and gives respect to Smitty as he does and you all act glib. Sad really.

Ha, I forgot about that.

I really hope Gettleman can find some WR's who overachieve here and do diddly poo elsewhere like in NY.

How is Ronde such a stand up guy but his twin is a POS? Wish we could have had a 10 year DB in our secondary.

right!

 

jeezzus people can we cut the sarcasm down a bit.. it's a compliment.. stick the feather in your cap and walk away

[jarhead]

Ultimate compliment 

[L-TownCat]

It's remarks like his that give me further hope that when it is time, Steve will get the nod for a bust in Canton.

[OneBadCat]

Steve Smith is the GOAT no sht he was the toughest

[mwright350]

My dislike for TB aside Ronde has been an excellent corner in this league for a very long time.  This is high praise for Smitty coming from him and I'm glad to read it.

 

The speed with which we jump to smartass remarks makes me sad sometimes.

[Toundra]

Nice comment from one of the best corner ever to one of the best wr ever.

Funny thing is for all the bucs fans who despise us their players/coaches seem to have a lot of respect for us. A lot different from how we perceive the Saints/Falcons and how our players do.
