BALTIMORE Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith is about as good as it gets when it comes to trash talking.

Think Anthony Mundine, but a fair bit funnier and with way better delivery.

Everyone in the NFL was waiting to hear what Smith would come up with on the weekend when he played against the Carolina Panthers — the team he played 13 seasons for before being cut last year — for the first time.

And Smith didn't disappoint — with his mouth or his play.

He torched the Panthers for 139 yards and two touchdowns in the Ravens' 38-10 win, telling reporters afterwards: "I'm 35 years old and I ran around them boys like they was schoolyard children."

But his best line wasn't revealed until a few days after the game, when audio from the sidelines was released.

Smith, who still owns a house in Carolina, let his teammates know where to go and what to do when they got home.

It's just one of a host of memorable lines delivered by the oldest player in NFL history to have more than 400 yards receiving in the first games of a season.

After arriving in Baltimore, he described why he immediately felt at home.

"When I look in the defensive meeting room and I see 'Play like a Raven,' Baltimore Ravens, 'We build bullies,'" Smith told CSN's Brian Mitchell.

"That's what I'm talking about ... We take your lunch box. We take your sandwich. We take your juice box. We take your apple sauce. And we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That's the Baltimore Raven way. That's the bully way. And that's football."

He was just as prolific during his time with the Panthers, saying this about former New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez: "He sucks. I wouldn't let Mark Sanchez throw me a paper bag sandwich."

And this about Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow: "Everybody wants to say Tim Tebow is that difference maker. He wouldn't be on my son's flag football team."

But our favourite was in a post-game interview after the Panthers defeated the New England Patriots last season.
