Sure he's had some brain farts, but at least he has the skills to make plays and big hits that can change a game... Yes, I know, he can change a game in the other direction too, but Carter will be dressed anyway, so if Smith blows an assignment or two, he can be pulled.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-62252330692446382332008-10-28T23:08:00.000-04:002008-10-28T23:08:00.000-04:00It was pretty much a perfect pass.

But I think we'll see Carter exploited and I almost hope we see Smith. Its his last chance for sure, maybe he'll step up. I will say the Manning pass to Toomer was pretty much perfect, but Carter definitely was a step behind. But that pass might be completed no matter what.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725231979706488599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-2666013364088971982008-10-28T20:34:00.000-04:002008-10-28T20:34:00.000-04:00Smith isn't a talent thing?

Tyrone Carter is limited to be sure, but they just don't trust Smith to handle his coverages.Dale Lolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089003781188560287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-55002504520264297382008-10-28T19:58:00.000-04:002008-10-28T19:58:00.000-04:00the anthony smith thing bothers me too.

If he is still in the doghouse, then just release him and stop wasting everyone's time.<BR/><BR/>Ask yourself, is anything Smith has done worse than what Santonio just did?<BR/><BR/>If its based on talent, fine, but I have a hard time beleiving Smith is less of a talent then Ty Carter.<BR/><BR/>As long as Davenport doesn't fumble the kickoffs and gets around the 20-30, then I'm fine with it. We don't have a goodkick returner that isn't a starter. Have to deal with that.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725231979706488599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-47300077936635280332008-10-28T18:37:00.000-04:002008-10-28T18:37:00.000-04:00I can't believe they won't give Anthony Smith anot...I can't believe they won't give Anthony Smith another shot. He showed signs of being a great player, but he just needed to mature (in several ways). Tyrone Carter should be nothing but a special teamer at this point in his career. I agree with a lot that this coaching staff does, but this is surprising to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-88350412383945511272008-10-28T16:25:00.000-04:002008-10-28T16:25:00.000-04:00Retofsky was signed as the new long snapper.Retofsky was signed as the new long snapper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-73873081238060135752008-10-28T15:49:00.000-04:002008-10-28T15:49:00.000-04:00They're not sure Parker will be back yet.They're not sure Parker will be back yet.Dale Lolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13089003781188560287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-24867258594872861382008-10-28T15:29:00.000-04:002008-10-28T15:29:00.000-04:00why the freak is dookie the only option at KR? if...why the freak is dookie the only option at KR? if and when parker is back, dookie should be cut. holmes can return punts with moore as KR.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
