Neil Dutton:
Steve Smith’s “blood and guts” game
Steve Smith played his entire career with a chip on his shoulder, but this chip became an entire potato the first time he donned Ravens colors for a clash against the team of whom he spent the first 13 years of his career.
After the Panthers cut him after the 2013 season, he instructed folks to “put your goggles on cause there’s going to be blood and guts everywhere” if he got a chance to play against the Panthers. While there was a lack of viscera, Smith certainly bought the pain in Week 4 of the 2014 season. He finished with seven receptions for 139 yards and two touchdowns in the game, after which he invited his former team to “mow his lawn” for him. Just brilliant.
