Re: Sean Payton: Steve Smith's longevity is impressive
Did Steve Smith produce? Yes. Has Steve Smith been cancerous to his team? No. Is Steve Smith a team captain? Yes. Steve Smith's personality is conducive to being a good player. Being mean and nasty helps in an aggressive sport. Which is why he's punked out Harper, Jenkins, and Greer every year. Same way Richard Sherman and the Seahawks bullied our offense all night. We could use several Steve Smith's. I don't care if he's a thug on the field, off the field, or in church: Can he play? Is he reliable?
This reminds me of high school. When coaches decide a hard worker deserves to play over the more talented. Or letting the children of the booster club parents play. Only thing that matters in football, is can you play, and will you walk a straight enough path to be able to play consistently. He's done that. And I like him. And if we had every person who's "thuggish" personality yall hate we'd have more Super Bowls then then the Pats. |
