Cam Newton / Steve Smith

[rayzor]

why you got to bring josh mccown into the conversation?

If peppers remains dominant, it could be him. And that's about it.

Peppers

Peppers want get in. His numbers while ok are not great. Lets face it Johnson had more sacks than peppers last year.

Its also has to be noted that most of the NFL sees him as lazy.

[David Duke Is a Bad Person]

Peppers is borderline HOF material, IMO.

[jamos14]

Is that a picutre of :jc: as a kid??!

[OneBadassCat]

I could see Peppers getting in. But I could also see him being a POS and going in as a Bear and not a Panther.

If Smith wants in he'll likely have to get to a team with a great QB, that's just being realistic.

[MWCarolina]

Brings a good question to raise...... who is the most likely first HOF Panther?

Mushin Muhammad could get in, only said could though.

Mushin Muhammad could get in, only said could though.

No way Moose gets in the HoF. There are too many WR better than Moose in his generation. I love Moose to death but no way he is going in. Smith would go before Moose IMO but I don't see either going.

I do think we would be erecting a statue of Moose right now outside BoA if he hadn't left for Chicago. It's still a possibility though.

Peppers is already a 6 time pro-bowler and 5 time All pro. Exactly how many times does he have to do that to be in the Hall of Fame. His 89 sacks is not there yet but he isn't finished either and sacks are not the only factor. He is considered the best DE in the NFC although he never leads the categories most years. If he gets 2 more pro-bowl nods he will be in the HOF one day.

As for Smith, he is not a HOF player. I will be interested to see if anyone picks up his 7 million salary which rises to 9 million next year.

Steve Smith will be playing with another rookie QB this year. One who had more incompletions in a staged pro-day than Clausen, Bradford, and McCoy combined... x 2.

When the double coverage starts and Cam pumps to Smitty and takes off... your going to see a very unhappy multi-millionaire whether the team is winning or losing.

Duh. Cam Newton

Duh. Cam Newton

Canton isn't worthy of The Cam :cam:

I don't understand the resentment with Smitty..

a guy who undoubtedly SHOULD be in the HOF, but isn't because he's put the team 1st all his career.. fug that, he's CARRIED this team his entire career.

people show some respect and quit being a little bitch if the guy wants to branch out.. most players would have done that before his last contract extension.

who the fug wants to play for a coach who thinks running the ball 3 downs in a row is a solid game plan? Smitty put up with it.. I dare you to find someone as selfish as you all claim he is to do the same.

Smitty isn't the only one with a sandy vagina, but he's the only one with a good enough reason.. (that is if these reports are even true..)

I don't think Julius is lazy you can see his career stats and see he has dominated almost every year, he also is a 6 time pro-bowler.
