DID YOU SEE THAT?

You’d think after watching him every day for going on nine years, you’d stop being amazed by Steve Smith. I’m not. He routinely makes plays in practice that would lead SportsCenter if there were cameras rolling. Tuesday’s latest jaw-dropper was a reverse run, during which he made at least five cuts or stop-and-go moves. The last one left Julius Peppers (as nimble as anyone else on the roster) standing flat, as Smith cut inside and dashed upfield.

Smith has no fear on the field, and practices as hard as any player I’ve ever seen. NUMBER OF THE DAY: 10

Pounds lost by 290-pound DT Nick Hayden, so he could replace the 345-pound (give or take a few dozen) Kemoeatu. Unless you’re a behemoth, they want you quick in this system, so Hayden peeled off some weight before camp. SIDELINES

The camp’s gone twitter-crazy. DeAngelo Williams doesn’t do it, saying it was like “sending text messages to people you don’t know.” Coach John Fox has warned them not to write anything they’d regret, and to be smart. Otherwise, he doesn’t seem to care. It’s not his deal, but he’s not militant about it.

:lol: @ the bolded comment

Wonder if people around here understand that twitter is just an addition to the camp coverage/write ups instead of a replacement? As soon as people get back, they write up what they see...but it's only been 2 damn days.

FYI to all: If you've gone to camp and have some info but are too shy to post it, just PM me or one of us and we'll get it out. Thanks in advance.

Stew is a pretty media/network savy dude.

He strikes me as a cat that would be making serious cash even if he wasn't in the NFL.

Social Networking is bringing him $$$'s with his record label I'm sure.

Agreed. One ring would seal the deal. But I think smitty could close out his career with 800 yard seasons and still be in contention. I think 3 more 1,000+ seasons and he's a first ballot HOFer

I don't think anyone who blind sides their own teammate and breaks that teammate's face in the process will ever be first ballot. He will get in but I doubt any assortment of stats will be able to make it a first ballot deal.

..sorry OP. I know, off topic

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By mav1234 · Posted

      There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
