Is it an argument anymore????

Well I will agree that Fitz is a better end zone threat, Smitty is far too short to be the best in that category.

His first two years Smith wasn't much of a TD grabber really, if you want to take that into account.

We can take whatever you want into account. Can I throw out 1 season for Fitz? lol

Because its homers like you that irritate me almost as much as opposing fans.

Fitz came into the NFL in 2004 - 6975 yds and 46 TD's

Smith came into the NFL in 2001 - 7348 yds and 43 TD's

Yeah, and it's "fans" like you and "fans" that start meaningless, troll-like threads that irritate me more than fans of the opposition.

How logical to praise a WR as being better than Smitty on a Panthers forum, especially when you KNOW that Fitz is in, and has been in, an offense that is pass happy. You also know, regardless of how you want to put it, that if the situations were reversed, then in all probability Smitty's stats would be that much better, and Fitz's would not be as good. Even more, you fail to take injuries into account, or enter actual yards per game or YAC into the equation.

Like it or not, I am of the opinion that there is no shame in being a homer on your own team's message board, particularly when arguing about an issue that is unable to be proved (especially when taking empirical data and anecdotal evidence into account). It would be more logical start a Fitz>Smith thread on the Cardinal board where you can get the desired result.

I only see threads like this by trolls on other message boards, and the mods and fans call it for what it is.

Fitz is the 05 Smith

Now he's going to get soooooo much attention from defenses that you will see the difference in a few years coming

If we had a potent passing offense like the Cards, you might not be takin Fitz side. But we dont. Smith is the only dude here in a running offense and still put up good numbers

Panthers better step up the passing game or Smith wont excel in the playoffs just like his last 2 appearances

Delhomme could use a guy like Fitz, jump 20 feet in the air for all his high inaccurate passes.

And, that makes all the acrobatic catches and yards after the catch by Smith that much more improbable.

Just think what would happen if he had someone throwing to him that could actually hit him in stride...

Oh goodie...

Yeah, and it's "fans" like you and "fans" that start meaningless, troll-like threads that irritate me more than fans of the opposition. Boy you must have a list of my troll threads....find one. please. Any luck? No? How about now?

How logical to praise a WR as being better than Smitty on a Panthers forum,

Um, pretty logical if it's correct. I love Smitty I even own an 89 jersey...he's one of the top WR's in the NFL. He's also not better than Fitz. Stop coming across in a manner that is prevalent with morons.

that if the situations were reversed, They aren't

Like it or not, I am of the opinion that there is no shame in being a homer on your own team's message board No shame just quit crying when you get called out.

particularly when arguing about an issue that is unable to be proved (especially when taking empirical data and anecdotal evidence into account). I proved it with yds and td's per game. Whats crap evidence? Maybe you saying that if they had different QB's....how'd Moose do when Smitty went down? He had a decent year, right?

Final

Teamates Smitty has punched - 2

Teamates Fitzy has punched - 0

:nono:

Smith makes most of his plays off of throws made in coverage where he can leap into the air and catch it. He could also take it to the house from anywhere on the field. Fitzgerald is almost the same way but can jump higher. Delhomme and Fitzgerald would be a match made in heaven. :D

I'd much rather have WARNER and Smitty. Can you imagine how awesome Smitty's numbers would be with Warner pitching it to him?

And, I also might add that according to NFL.com, you are 1000 yards off for yardage in your argument to make Fitz>Smitty

And, furthermore, It's arguable whether Fitz is even the best receiver on the Cards

Boldin came into the NFL in 2003- 6496 yds and 40 TDs

1000 yards? What gives? Smoking gun! More evidence that you should take your argument to the Cardinals board.

All I am saying that this 1000 yard error closes the gap, particularly when you take injuries and styles of offense that they play in---regardless of whether it's McCown or Leinart heaving the rock---it is a little more difficult to claim by the preponderance of the evidence that Fitz is better than the great Steve Smith.

As a diehard Panthers fan, but more importantly a student of the game, at this point in their careers, they are too close for me to holla from the rooftops that Fitz (or anyone else) is better than Smith. And, it's amusing, but a little disappointing, to see you come to that conclusion. Perhaps you should change our name to Cardthro. LMAO

I pray that Smitty gets his ring so we can put these comparisons to rest.

Yeah thanks for catching that for me. My dyslexia is a bastard sometimes. lol If you think Boldin > Fitz then Boldin > Smith.
