Smitty may be even more pissed than we thought (Panthers related)

That video is exactly what I like and dislike about Smitty.

I like the passion, the fire, and the intensity. We've all seen it ....It is why Smith is a huge fan favorite and why I have his jersey.

I dislike the video because it's childish, immature, and unprofessional. Great players who are fierce competitors go to other teams at the end of their career all the time but Joe Monatana, Jerry Rice, Ed Reed, or any other player with class called their previous organization MFer's on the sideline.

Steve went on WFNZ, like he did every week, and openly stated that his sole mission was to make it to the Hall of Fame. I listened with my own damn ears.

I listened to the same interview, it pissed me off. It was ironic that he was cut soon after that interview.

He laughed when asked if he'd restructure and said he is chasing numbers. He also said he wouldn't be happy with a lesser role if it meant more wins and he would demand the ball.

Good riddance.

Yes. Mainly due to Cotchery and Avant. Those guys are serious mentors and all around really nice guys.

 

It's what I presumed.

 

Smith had to leave for new WR1 to come and so that Cam could play free.

 

I can imagine Kelvin Benjamin and Olsen getting more balls thrown their way, would make him pissed. Not an ideal work environment for Cam or for Benjamin to develop.

 

I think that the hassle wasn't worth it anymore.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.

    • Mustard BBQ sauce only. Bessingers or Melvin's BBQ sauce.  However Bessingers is the best in the world, Melvin is 2nd.    I found this article    In fact, the New York Times Magazine described the sauce as “terrifically balancing the tangs of mustard and vinegar with a wood fire's charry flavor.” While helping his dad, Joseph “Big Joe” Bessinger, as a teenager in the kitchen of the family's first restaurants, Thomas learned the secret recipe for the gold sauce – ... https://www.bessingersbbq.com › t...
