Smitty set to play vs Bengals

CHARLOTTE - The clock is ticking toward the start of the regular season, and wide receiver Steve Smith understands that time is of the essence.

That's why Smith stuck around to catch some extra passes from quarterback Cam Newton after practice Monday, and that's why Smith is anxious to make his preseason debut Thursday when the Panthers visit the Cincinnati Bengals.

"It will be fun," Smith said. "Today was probably our best practice. We were going on all cylinders.

"When Thursday comes around, hopefully we'll be able to display that on a lot of plays."

The Panthers didn't display much in their last preseason game, a 20-10 loss at the Miami Dolphins on Friday. They were better in a victory over the New York Giants by the same score six days earlier, but they hope to be even better with Smith back in the lineup after missing both games with a finger injury.

"It was a learning opportunity for the young guys and for myself. It's just something we've got to work through," Smith said of the showing against Miami. "Success doesn't all come just at once. You've got to have a little failure and learn from it."

Smith's learning curve in the new offense took a detour on Aug. 9, when he cut the webbing between two fingers on a catch in practice, forcing him to miss nearly a week of practices at training camp. From the initial looks of it, it could have been worse.

Let's see if Newton and Smitty can connect vs the Bengals. :D

i'm really anxious to see how things look.

right or wrong, smith is going to play a lot harder with newton throwing to him than he did with moore/clausen last year and jake the year before. if he feels good about you, he's going to put in that extra effort to make things happen.

Hahah yeah he hated averaging a TD a start with Moore and being forced the ball with Jake.

He hated Clausen, no doubt.

The things you guys say to prop up Cam is pretty crazy

Yeah Smith cared so much about Moore that he didn't even keep in touch with him after his injury. You're so fuging oblivious to everything.

personally I think the new offense is a bigger reason why Smith is going to try harder, but not having Clausen throw him passes could play a role... but I'm pretty sure Smitty and Jake liked each other and he certainly was on good terms with Moore.

      Heels let another team go up 20 on them but this time they complete the comeback. HD never seems to have his team ready but he makes great halftime adjustments. Powell played the majority of the second half and his defense was the difference along with his big three pointer to give the Heels the lead for good. Trimble and Davis were also spectacular. Carolina can’t let Auburn get out to a 20 point lead though, they won’t be able to come back from that.

      I don't think there is much of a chance we go wr in the first round.  If Young continues to play fairly well, our choice will likely dl, lb, or maybe a slight chance at ol.
