CARDS slip up....Bulletin Board Material

Recap of the comments please? I'm at work.

Rod Hood's quote on Steve Smith...."You look at and say look, he's a guy who makes plays, but yeah you can definitely stop him. I feel like anyone I go up against I can stop. As a defense we feel we can stop him...If you don't feel like you can stop him, then I don't know why you playing this game. So we definitely feel like we can stop em' and be successful defensively"

They consider holding Smith to five catches for 117 yards and two TDs is successful? I hope they have that kind of "success" again Saturday!

I was On PSD last night, the Cardinals board, One poster said that magical word "IF" here is his quote:

If you take out the 65 yard TD he had 4 receptions for 52 yards and 1 TD... So if Rolle takes away the big play, assuming the FS had deep help, then DRC did shut down Smith.

They are also proud of their 24 points in the last game. :hurray:

haha... i like the "if" game. basically what the conversation boils down to is: "if we can play well and beat them, then we will win." NO sh*t SHERLOCK! the issue is, whether the condition you're suggesting can be accomplished... the truth is nothing can be predicted.

any given sunday (saturday) fellas (and girls).

GO PANTHERS!

lol

what do expect the guy to say?

"Yes, I am Rod Hood playing in the playoffs, but I am going to mail it in cause Steve Smith will most likely play very well and beat me this Saturday...who's got my headdy tee-time?"

::rolls eyes::

Hood was talking with Kirwan on Sirius-NFL the other day and gave Smith a ton of props/credit and said Smitty made him a better player, etc.

Like the man said, if you really do not believe you can stop the man standing across from you, you have absolutely no business being on that field. All of these players are confident that they can beat the man across from them and that's why they are in the NFL.

And don't worry about Smitty. You all know that he does not require any bulletin board stuff to get fired up for a game.

Any team can stop Steve if they commit enough resources to it. The Seahawks proved that in the NFC Championship game a few years back. The problem is how do you stop everyone else if you do.

So the man goes into the game with confidence in himself and his team....whoa big deal. Nothing personal was said to Smith here.

If there's one thing I've learned about Smitty over the years, it's that comments like that are the equivalent of talking about his mamma! Smitty takes EVERYTHING personal. Just saying that they can shut him down is smack enough to give him the chip he needs.

    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
    • TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...
    • So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
