They talk for 4 minutes about it. Stephen loves us and Skip loves our D but isn't completely sold.

 

Stephen says "elite" and "legit" at least 4 times each.

 

"The Carolina Panthers....are coming." - Stephen A Smith
 
Skip said 49ers would have won with Vernon.
 
Here's the video. Ends around 1:00.00 starts around 56:00.

Good stuff Dex,

It kills me how Skip and other media outlets make excuses and say San. Fran would have won if ......

San Fran would have won if this person would have been playing......

Injuries are part of the game we have lost our first and second team guards yet we don't make excuses about starting a defensive tackle at guard.

Bayless is clueless.  ""somehow he comes from his linebacker position and breaks this up"  Watch the damn film.  That is because he had him right away.  And NO Davis doesn't come down with that ball because Kuechly breaks it up the same way.

 

I hate when they say what ifs because someone got hurt.   Well if they had a real ref that wasn't in the back pocket of the Niners  Davis fumbles the football and Carolina recovers.

No offense to the OP, but stories that include the phrase "Skip Bayless said" just don't register well with me.

Well from now on I'll run all my Panther related threads by you before I post. Sorry for the trouble I caused.

It's not their job to watch film. This leads to shoddy journalism and over generalizations more often than not. The sports casting world will know a lot more on November 19th if we are able to pull it out just because everyone will have access to the game. That said, he is right about Kuechly.

I have a feeling that was a blown coverage and Kuechly recognized the call as soon as he saw the tight end split the seam. Something went wrong in the pre snap call and there wasn't going to be a safety there which Kuechly recognized almost immediately.

That's not based on anything other than how the play unfolded and how unscripted it seemed to be that Kuechly was 30 yards down field with no safety within 5 yards.

Don't bash me for this interpretation because that's all it is, an interpretation, I could be wrong.

      Just a winner? He went 6-9 last year. Just because a guy got carried to the SB by elite surrounding talent doesn't mean much. How did Nick Files pan out after catching lightning on a bottle?

      Hurts is an elite threat with his legs though. He's gonna stress an opposing DC a lot more than Brock Purdy.

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.
