You wanna pay Ginn $3.3mil to return punts & drop passes?

He wasn't even that great as a returner last year.

 

I didn't say that. All I said was his return TD is relevant to this discussion and it is. Never said I would've paid him $3m per to stay. I'm happy with our WRs now and the only thing I would change if I were Gettleman was I would've tried to talk to Smitty and be open with him and see if we could work out a new deal for him to stay this year and not pick up the option for the next 2 years. Smitty in the slot with KB and Cotch on the outside would be great to see. And Olsen on the line.

Ginn had a TD, but also I don't get the point of this. These guys aren't Panther's anymore, let it go. Not to mention I think LaFell and Ginn are like 4th/5th on the depth chart on their new teams.

 

I think the point is to do the reporting that our journalists are supposed to be doing.  ALL reporting about our offense has been about losing our receivers; what's so wrong about doing some reporting to refute those statements?

It's okay I guess. :|

 

Though if you're trying to refute narratives from ESPN, NFLN, BR, ect it's going to take a LOT of posting. I mean those guys basically make clickbait for money. I myself really try to stay away from new media, especially sports news media.

Ginn was I think 9th in return yards on punts, middle of the road on kicks. He really was middle of the pack and we have been so awful for so long at KR/PR that I think we put the Ginn on a pedestal.

 

Yeah, but I think everyone kind of could see his potential. Before him it was SCARY bad.

You are everything not that asheville embodies. Every one of your posts i've read seems to either be argumentative or cynical in nature. Stop. It's a great day to enjoy and bask in glory of win. It's sports. It's not strategizing war moves.

I agree with that, but I think the post is really meant for us Panther fans; after all, that's who the reporting is meant for--the fans.

Okay? Well I guess you've missed my posts praising our secondary, Kuechly, and defensive gameplan. I am critical of our offensive gameplan (run yardage, yuck), and am not chest beater after winning two games however.

 

To quote Cam "be humble or be humbled".

You don't get the point? Here it is. So many of the 'experts' were saying we'd be weaker at WR, even after the roster was set. So far, we're not. 

 

As for let it go, why? It's good news, not a complaint. And what the former Panthers are doing this season has no bearing at all on the point of the post.

Hah, I guess you guys like an echo chamber. You could just tweet these people who offended you in the offseason instead of just shaking each others hands patting each other on the back.

What I love about the new corps is that it's not dependant on any one player, last week Cotchery and Avant were quiet while Benjamin stood out while today Benjamin had a quieter game with Cotchery and Avant stepping up along with Olsen who was strong in both games, it's not like last year where it was basically Smith/Olsen for the passing game

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By HPPantherzfan · Posted

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
