After Panthers’ loss, Chris Simms gets revenge: They laid down like damn street dogs

Simms backed the Eagles

Simms said he trusted Philadelphia’s culture and defense, predicting a 17-14 Eagles win. He expected Carolina to be sluggish after its bye and the game to become a low-scoring struggle.

Panthers won, then taunted

Instead, Carolina beat the Eagles, improving to 3-2 and taking the NFC South lead. The Panthers’ social media team soon took a shot at Simms over his failed prediction.

The Panthers’ celebration did not last long. The following Sunday, they hosted the 1-5 Buccaneers and lost 43-13, a 30-point defeat.

Simms fires back on air

Simms opened Monday’s PFT Live by criticizing the Panthers’ social media taunt and their performance against Tampa Bay. He questioned their confidence after beating Philadelphia while the Eagles were dealing with a difficult situation. Simms called Carolina “wussy cats” and described the loss as a major beating. Referring to the Buccaneers’ visit, he said the Panthers “laid down like some damn street dogs.”

Carolina can still respond

The Panthers stood at 3-3 after the loss, leaving them time to answer Simms’ criticism. The article notes that the next time they consider provoking him online, they may want to check whether his former team is their upcoming opponent.
