 In one way I think I the team needs to see a guy like Smith chew him out harshly. Smith makes it clear he wants to win and if you're gonna f that up you need to gtfo. Smith knows what a great team looks like. He's played great teams and he's been on great teams throughout his career. However I also don't think another teammate deserves to be berated that like that. Smith was about to cross that line. That's a place for the coach. Also the refs should have also penalized the Seahawks on that play. But I applaud Smith for trying to bring some accountability to the team. Sometimes you gotta go there.

He should have never made the team, plain and simple.

 

He only made the team over Poole because of his ST value, I've felt like Poole was the better runner for the past two years now.

 

If ST play is what you bring to the team... then you probably shouldn't be fuging up on ST.  Much less fuging up twice in the same game.

I love Smitty, he has that fire, desire, and love for the game. 5 yards or more doesn't matter, I bet you Armond won't do something like that again lol...The Passion is obvious, it's ashame he's older now. JR should hire him as a WR coach right after he retires if he wants of course...Start making his Statue Already!

Even if the first call wasn't legit, as a player you have got to realize the refs are now focusing on that infraction and act accordingly. 

 

To get called for it twice in one game is ridiculous.

 

The fact that Armond was slow to recognize that reality is a good reason for Steve, a team captain, to get pissed at him.

We've got to get this man a ring before he retires... or at the very least another Super Bowl appearance.  It's a damn shame how forgotten his career is going to be outside of Carolina due to poo he's had no control over.

 

Dude is one the best WRs of all time, hell, one of the best football players of all time.  I don't give a fug what anybody says.

 

I'm gonna cry like a bitch when he hangs up the cleats.

Agreed.

 

I was honestly very surprised when he made the team over Poole. Nothing against Armond as a person, but he proved just how bone headed and detrimental he can be to the team in preseason. Yet we still kept him around.

 

This is a direct indictment on what Rivera's tenure here has been like. We keep letting these same players on the bottom end of our roster bite us in the ass and cost us games. We cut Nakamura and Fua, and keep this guy.

 

Just baffles me how we keep doing this to ourselves. I can't be the only one thinking this.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
