The Carolina Panthers were in Baltimore for a matchup against the Ravens on Sunday and, perhaps not surprisingly, Steve Smith Sr. was a central figure.
It didn’t take Smith long to make an impact against his former team. Early in the second quarter, he caught a pass from Joe Flacco that was tipped by Owen Daniels and took it for a 61-yard touchdown. With less than two minutes remaining until halftime, Smith hauled in his second score of the quarter, this time from 21-yards out.
It’s no secret Steve Smith was not pleased with the way his time in Carolina came to an end. Earlier this year, he said there would be “blood and guts everywhere” in reference to going up against his former team. Smith also called out the Panthers during the Ravens’ game against the Cincinnati Bengals in week one.
Steve Smith Sr. certainly held up his end of the talk on Sunday with five catches for 122 yards and two touchdowns in just first half.
