Rivera says Cam wasn't consulted in WR moves

[Silent Majority]

Like the Steelers and Patriots do?

And you're an expert on how they operate because........????

[EightyNine]

If cutting Smith was purely a football decision, then it was a really dumb decision.

 

We'll see..

[Silent Majority]

None that I can think of. Did you have one in mind?

Are you being facetious?

[RoaringRiot]

Are you being facetious?

 

Not one bit. 

[fieryprophet]

Quarterbacks are not consulted about the roster. This is not the NBA, players can't bully their way to a new team or get the coach fired.

Brady couldn't even get the Pats to keep Welker.

[Silent Majority]

Not one bit.

Cam Newton is our entire offense. Period.

[RoaringRiot]

Cam Newton is our entire offense. Period.

 

 

Your words were "are the team", not "is the offense". 

[AceBoogie]

So you want to cite the media as authority now? The same media you're constantly complaining about when it comes to Newton?

The media aren't football people. People who actually make a living in NFL front offices know how this works.

The same people that signed Smith a day after his release and says he can still play?

Oh God here we go again.

Cam Newton is our entire offense. Period.

Then I suppose he doesn't need any receivers.

That's petty and intellectually dishonest af. Move along sir.

They also signed michael huff to be their starting safety and cut him after what 1 or 2 games?  They also paid Joe Flacco like an elite qb, they also signed rolando mcclain, they also said gino gradkowski could be a starting center, they also traded anquan boldin who they knew could still play rather than paying him an amount they didn't think he was worth..sound familiar?

[heel31ok]

I think you have no clue how an NFL front office works.

(your assertion that Steve Smith dictated his own release is pretty solid evidence of that)

 did you come up with that yourself or do you think that is what G-man would say?  

 yes SS did dictate his own release. Just like "consulting" you may need to look "dictate" up as well.

Brilliance. *rolls eyes*
