how many of you actually think that he is willing to but up with this crap any longer. he is dropping hints, and dropped a few last sunday. Anyone else notice that he didnt speak to jake the entire game? or that he sat on the defensive bench? and after the game he said "Fortunately I don't have to have that responsibility. I don't want to comment on something that's outside my pay grade." Smitty usually says what's on his mind. This time, actions spoke louder than words.

He also said that Jake needs something more than a teammate and that his relationship with Jake goes beyond that of a teammate. He said that he lost focus during the game and that he should shoulder some of the blame.

this must have been said since sunday, because what i quoted was what he said right after the game.

He certainly looked defeated after the interception from the bomb Jake threw him. He's firmly planted in Charlotte though. He's made mention to the fact how he loves coaching his son's soccer team, how they took trips this summer to Europe to watch soccer, how he's matured now and more mellow. All that means to me is that if we pay him, he won't go all diva and demand a trade. He gets along great with Jake but wouldn't argue if someone better came in I'm sure. I think he'll retire a Panther...but dear Lord I can only imagine what he would be like if Brady or Manning were his QB...wow.

He looked pretty exasperated to me, there's no quit in Smitty.

Honestly, why are we feeling sorry for him. He played pretty poorly and on two of the interceptions on passes targeting him, he tipped one right into the defender's hand and on the third one didn't even make a legitimate attempt to knock the pass down. He has blame in this as well and he admitted it. This was a team loss and no one should be throwing stones here. Smitty isn't going anywhere and trade conversations are just plain stupid.

Many feel sorry for him, because he's a Hall of Fame talent who will probably not make it to the HOF because of a not so talented qb.

he actually said all of that after the game.

people look at and hear only what they want to. you or reporters only want to hear that everyone, including smitty is bailing on delhomme then that is what you are going to find.

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
