I agree 100% and then some. He was simply incredible. I wouldn't part with an autographed #89 for 100 million dollars. Truly I wouldn't. My favorite player of all time. Beyond a shadow of a doubt. His ability. The way he played the game and most importantly the pure heart he showed every single game. He'll never be replaced in Carolina. It is also a crime he didn't finish with us. Only a fool wouldn't do everything they could to keep him happy and in our colors.

To me and for me, he’s very clearly the pound for pound greatest receiver ever and it’s not close. He left money on the table his rookie year because some teams were afraid to draft him thinking he’d be a menace in the locker room too 😅

Delhomme/Smith-Most underrated QB/WR duo from that era!

The original beast mode

Smitty is the reason I became a Panthers fan he got heart for days & made big plays 1 of the greats at his position

2nd time making this point on a Steve Smith tribute. I watched a lot of his games being a Panthers fan. Maybe the best run blocking receiver I have seen. Even on run plays you watched for what Steve Smith was doing. He often would block a DB into the ground. I have seen quite a few defensive backs lose their sand trying to deal with Steve Smith. Fred Smoot was never the same after playing him. DeAngelo Hall pitched a fit and got ejected for it because he couldn't shut Steve Smith up. Janoris Jenkins couldn't deal with him. And I guess we all know about Aqib Talib. Ice up son!

This guy was beastmode more people need to talk about this man half the wr are nothing compared to this beast!!! None!!!! Yards after catch the speed the catch ability the hopps the dog this man is my favorite wr how he came back how he fought for his team man....LEGEND!!!

He backed up his trash talk very well.. 1 of the Greats!!!

One of the greatest ever, my favorite player of all time

He’s definitely in my top 10 & this coming form a Saints fan

Love these videos! maybe make one with Chad Johnson?

One of my favorite football players growing up. Absolute dawg.

Steve Smith Sr. belongs in the Hall of Fame. This man made the Carolina Panthers a relevant franchise, and he did this as a WR with no real QB talent outside of Cam Newton and Jake Delhomme. He's in the top 10 for receiving yards all-time, and he's number 12 for receptions all-time.

Why this video doesn't have like 3m views is crazy

The GOAT of the Carolina Panthers. True Legend

I almost swapped from the panthers to the ravens when they cut Steve Smith. Still mad they did him like that. Hell they did Julius Peppers and Cam the same way.

Most admirable thing about Smitty in my opinion is that he was always Smitty. Never put up a front. Met him at a Fuel Up To Play 60 summit around 8 years ago and spoke with him. I challenged him to a “milk drinking contest” 🤣 and he hit me with the “I don’t drink milk” line. We spoke about how dedicated he was to keeping his body healthy. Bet that’s one of the reasons why he was antagonizing DB’s at almost 40 years old! From a kid growing up in North Carolina during #89’s PRIME, Thanks for your sacrifice!

I wish they would have beat NE in the Superbowl. Steve is the man! Also that offensive facemask against the bengals was fuckin legendary. Beast!

Steve Smith is a absolute Warrior.

My favorite player ever and it’s not even close 😊 ICE UP SON ICE UP!

Legend has it, Steve is still out in the Atlantic somewhere rowing away from cornerbacks...

Born and raised in Charlotte Die Hard Steve Smith fan always will be the greatest

Best player i ever saw in person. Over 30 panther games at this point and he never had a bad game and im talking in person. Prolly 20 he was playing. I saw the bengals game against peter warrick ehere panthers scored 53 points or something crazy but smith had two returns and a td catch or something nuts. It was a crazy stat line. Seriously tho worst game i saw him have was against the redskins and it was like 3 cstches 80 yards and we won and he had a catch where he got tackled at the one. He was so consistently great. Baller

Best Panther of all time. Sucks he had to finish his career outside of Charlotte.

@@toxiccroc920 Scam Newton said that Steve Smith Sr. was to short and his size threw him off. Then they got Benjamin and several other tall receivers and we know what happened. The balls sailed over their head. And this was the come complaint Benjamin had with Cam. He is just not accurate and the world knows it. Does he have other attributes that other Quarterbacks do not have? Yes, but if he cannot throw the ball down the field with accuracy then he is not a good or efficient Quarterback. He might be a hybrid but defenses don't fear Cam throwing the ball. When the defense sees Carolina on their schedule they get exited. They say this is a game where I can get my sacks and interceptions. Then he dances after completing a pass or running the ball because it suprises himself when he completes a pass. When he runs for positive yardage he gets so mad and hype because he knows the defense is trying to take his head off. Maybe if he stops with the antics the defense won't be trying to injure him. I think he might be retarded. He doesn't get that the antics adds fuel to the fire. Charlotte does not need him to add swag. We got swag without him. We need him to win a championship.
