The Steve Smith clip telling them to cut his grass is one of my all time favourite, just gold 🤣

[@seezymac425]

@brent Bain word bro

[@andrewschuschu3499]

Man thinking back on it I had a book I had gotten at a scholastic book sale at my school with Rod Woodson as a 49er in it, man that was back in the day when you learned about great players in books instead of highlight clips. “How did you learn about football?” “I read about Jerome Bettis in a kids book back in 1998.” It really did make him look like a superhero.

[@fizzyfuzz5878]

Steve Smith was the heart and soul of that franchise. Still to this day. That release was heartbreaking, he's the reason I became a fan of football. He was much watch TV, even on a lot of those bad Carolina teams. Only had a solid passing QB for three full seasons, Jake Delhomme. Then at the end of that third season '08, Delhomme suddenly lost all his skill in the first playoff game.

[@Nomah1979]

For any of you not old enough for Ed McCaffery and his Bronco years...He had an amazing stretch along with Rod Smith....What Ed could have done with Den if he had got there 3 years earlier. He had great hands and could always make the tough catches... his ypc for that 3 year span was impressive too...He was fun to watch

[@suscon1140]

Unfortunately (?) I am old enough to remember him playing.....those Broncos Teams were great to watch

[@zachdamenti4387]

Johnny Unitas definitely redeemed himself after a rough stretch in the Steel City and became legend for what he established in 1958!

[@lordwilliamstrickler179]

The Steelers also dumped quarterback Len Dawson who was the league's all time leading passer when he retired from the Kansas City Chiefs.

[@garethjohnson8579]

Ware release killed me. Took 3 yesrs of re-ordering his cowboys jersey as it failed to come for 3 xmas's straight according to my folks (uk based). Finally got it and they released him months later!

[@RCPlaneBuilder2005]

Do 1 player Every NFL’s team regrets moving on from (to this day)

In KC's case that must be Jared Allen. What a stupid move.

[@youraveragejoessportsnetwo553]

The Green Bay Packers should have never released safety Micah Hyde.

[@sportsfantastic361]

As a bills fan thank you packers

[@braydenscott4125]

It at least is better that he was not on this list

[@nathanmertens8308]

Or Casey Hayward

[@channimal3129]

Still can’t believe Agent 89 was let go. Best panther.

[@docblack59]

One of the dumbest releases was Redskins not signing back Trent Williams and getting next to nothing for him.

[@rudraksha11gaming66]

Steve Smith is 1 of my favorite players of all time and he definitely was the reason for any success the panthers had back then

[@legoman-87]

Imagine if the Steelers kept Unitas and didnt pass on Marino in 1983. Almost 7 straight decades of HOF quarterbacks with Unitas, Bradshaw, Marino, and Roethlisberger

[@aceassn716]

They also gave up on Len Dawson

[@BloodBoughtMinistries1]

Do the 50 players drafted by Mike Tomlin who never played a snap in the NFL

[@manuelfinale9231]

Steve Smith was done every kind of dirty you can think of

[@coreylineberry8557]

I'm just thinking about Steve Smith on that 2015 team... Carolina probably goes 19-0 that season, beating the Broncos in the Super Bowl, and becomes the greatest team of all time. At least Smith put the water under the bridge and is still active with the organization.

[@s0ur_dee]

Back in the 90s and early 2000s alot of teams had dynamic duos at wr...keyshawn/chrebet..moss/carter..rice/owens..bruce/ holt..Amanitoomer/hilliard..McCardell/jimmy....stevesmith/musinmuhamed etc we don't see that as much anymore

[@aceassn716]

Irvin Harper!

[@spacehonky6315]

Best duo Marvin Harrison+Reggie Wayne.

[@Lefuhq3]

Not a release but shout out to Jerry Jones for trading coop for a bag of chips.

[@garyskadra5236]

The Browns were pretty stupid to cut Bernie Kosar in mid-1993 season. All they had left after was some scrub named Eric Zier & I don't even remember the other backup qb's name. "Diminishing skills" they said but in reality it was more personal. Kosar went on to sign with Dallas & helped them when Troy Aikman was injured on their way to another Super Bowl winning season.

[@jinnij.caiman]

It’s crazy because Steve smith is still very loyal to the Panthers

[@alabastergreen7444]

Wait...Ed McCaffery is Christian McCaffery's dad?? Damn im old now

[@comradecrawdaddy]

The Steve Smith release still hurts me to this day lol

[@invisalats841]

Wasn't even a Carolina fan, but that was a head scratcher of a decision. There has been quite a lot of bone headed moves in the last decade as well by nfl teams.

[@RojoCube]

I find it funny that he suddenly became a Sr. At the end of his career. There's was no reason to add the Sr. Not like he would've been confused with the Hawks long time Guard Steve Smith or Steven Anita Smith from American Dad.

[@mdotmusic7334]

Eagles cut DeSean Jackson talking about he was in a gang. Idc if he was with the Golden Lords u don't just cut a player of his caliber

[@Truthis.214]

I'm still pissed at Jerry for trading D.Ware

[@carsondavy9892]

seahawks releasing Wagner tho?? shit broke my heart as a hawks fan… broke my heart even more as a Bobby Wagner fan. I love that man.

[@BEEyonced]

At least they are righting that wrong again. Not given by 1:31 other teams! Worse overall than just 54 was actually entire young Superbowl Team being traded away way to soon. And Kam Chancellor was worst luck. He may have gone down as best Strong Safety of 2000s Football! I loved his passion. Booooom!

[@ryderkincaid6539]

I think Dallas and Ware splitting up was necessary. I grew up watching Ware eat up QB's left and right and hated to see him go but he deserved a super bowl along with Witten and they sure as hell weren't gonna do it in Dallas

[@Eddieavina123]

Love your video TPS

[@raymac5235]

😂😂😂 Y'all made sure to only refer to the Reskins as WASHINGTON the whole segment.

[@garyskadra5236]

They all try to rewrite history like they do with the former Cleveland Indians also.

[@jjperdue4998]

[@TheLikeButon]

Chargers letting Drew Brees go was a mistake

[@user-q3cIy1mkx9]

The Seattle Seahawks released Bobby Wagner in mistake and scooped him up right away. At least, they were fast enough to admit their mistake. The Jimmy Smith and Keenan McCardell story is just unbelievable. These guys should have gone to the Super Bowl and there is no question about it. How could you let go Steve Smith and Tyrann Matheus? Those guys are ones that can change the course of the game and win the championships. The Washington Redskins/Commanders after 92 super bowl championship, the Cardinals and the Texans are the dumbest franchises ever.

[@jerryjanik480]

Chargers cutting Wes Welker was not dumb since he was a UDFA, but they sure could've used him.

[@syndrac6254]

Well to be honest, at the time, giving a Cornerback 16 mill a year was insane. The cap wasn't as high as it is now. These days all that money still goes to OLine, DLine and QB.

[@matthewtaylor6683]

I still don’t know why the Panthers let Steve Smith Sr go with so much juice still in the tank.

Jerome Bettis fumble against the Colts that almost ruined his legacy, Chase Blackburn not getting off the field in time giving the Patriots a second chance in Super Bowl 42, Reggie Bush’s muffed punt that set up a first and goal for the Vikings in the 2009 NFC Championship Game, and Lawrence Tynes missing the game winning field goal in the 2007 NFC Championship Game.

None compare to the Tampa bay Buccaneers of Hugh Culverhouse cutting Doug Williams because he wasn't going to pay a black qb $400,000 a year. Doug was the heart and soul of the team. He then signed Terry Hanratty and paid him $400,000. Doug went on to win a superbowl with the Redskins and Joe Gibbs. Hanratty was a disaster.

Rod Woodson was awful with the 49ers - he was a flag machine and got picked on all season. His AV that year was 5 - the fourth lowest of his career. He needed a change of scenery so cutting Woodson was the right move for both the 49ers are Woodson.
