If by ” what he did for the team” you mean what stephen davis (followed by deshaun foster, williams, et al) did, what the defense did and what steve smith did after catching a pass in the flats. Then yeah, I can't really overlook that. 5/23/2012 5:27:19 PM |

how bout his comeback versus the Jags in week 1 of that season? down 17(?) at halftime, Fox pulls Rodney Peete and puts in the goofy kid from Louisiana to throw 3 TDs including the game winner to Ricky Proehl
or how about him linking up with Muhsin Muhammad for the longest TD pass in Super Bowl history?
I know its all about "what have you done for me lately" which for Jake, was the Cardinals game and the Eagles game the next year, but the guy was the QB on our Super Bowl team
yeah the defense, Stephen Davis and John Kasay led us to the Super Bowl, but somebody had to get Smitty the ball...we didn't even start doing that WR screen to Smith until the next season 5/23/2012 5:32:19 PM |

not saying these replace many of the above moments but also a few good ones
1) Sam Mills INT for a TD vs the Jets for our first win in '95
2) Beating the 49ers in '95 to move to 4-5. Made Rice fumble at the 1 yard line
3) Beating the Cowboys in 96 injuring Deion and Irvin.
4) Destroying New Orleans in 2000 and almost making the playoffs because we were in a potential tie-breaker involving point differential.
5) Steve Smith KO return TD in 2001 in his first game as a Panther (before we lost the next 15 haha)
6) Jeff Lewis throwing 4 straight INT's in a preseason game
7) The Chris Weinke game where he threaded the defense for the game winning drive as a fill in for injury
8) The Atlanta game where we played without a QB and invented the Wildcat by running all over ATL
9) Drafting Tim Biakabutuka over Eddie George (sorry had to)
10) The time we beat Tampa by blocking their Extra Point with like 2 seconds left to force overtime.
11) Honorable mention: anything Lamar Lathon ever did. Especially hurdling that OL for a preseason sack.

the XP was definitely jenkins and i think he's right about the FG too. He was a kick blocking machine for awhile.
Hard to believe Scouts, Inc had Jenkins ranked as the 2nd best overall player in the NFL (behind Manning) back then. Sucks he had all those injuries, depression, alcoholism, and sleep apnea to drag him down. 5/23/2012 5:52:16 PM |

that shit was awesome, I never laughed so hard. Though, I came close that year in week 17 all NO needed to do was make an XP to either get to OT or win the game and they missed it and got knocked out of the playoffs 5/23/2012 6:21:27 PM |

Oh my god is he serious?!? Is Alex Smith implying he's the reason they won?
Is he implying the Panthers would have been good with the worst defense and the worst special teams in the league if he were the quarterback??
What is going on here? Of ALL the people to say this we get a guy who has played like crap his entire career having his first MEDIOCRE season and being carried by an elite defense, the #1 special teams in the league, and one of the worst divisions in history to the playoffs.
We're talking about a guy who only completed ONE pass to a WR in the NFC championship game.
I'm not saying Newton was light years better than Alex Smith last season but I'm not sure I'm buying that we were an Alex Smith away from being Super Bowl contenders.

I mean it's not like Alex Smith is an efficient passer and that's why they are winning games.
It's like when that assclown Craig Krenzel always played the "I'm 22-1 as a starter" line. Dude your team is stacked you are the ONLY weak link. Look how much talent they wasted at WR during his career. If he was any good people would still be talking about those OSU teams. 5/26/2012 12:44:22 AM |

sounds pretty half-assed and insincere to me
i mean i guess its the right teammate thing to do to defend your QB, but still, not very convincing
i'm pretty sure the best inside linebacker in the NFL would prefer his QB put up some more scores and make the game a little easier for him and the Smiths]5/27/2012 7:45:38 PM |

Cam has been in the league for 1 year and improved the team by 4 games with a depleted defense. Alex Smith has been in the league for 7-8 years and finally made the playoffs on the back of his much-maligned defense.
That's an unfair comparison. Alex Smith can suck my balls. 5/28/2012 10:28:07 AM |
