First Down Brenton Bersin

Brenton Bersin is the feel good story of the year. A guy out of Wofford College that grew up in Charlotte as a Panthers fan is now making a real difference for the team on the field. Quite a few folks here have Stephen Hill replacing Bersin on the regular roster, but I don't see it happening. All Bersin does is exactly what he is expected to do, namely make a catch when called upon.

 

I asked Brenton about his role on the team.

 

"I only go in when Cotch, Avant, or Kelvin get a breather" Bersin replied. "So I gotta be ready to go no matter what."

 

Bersin now has 4 completions in the NFL, 3 of which were for first downs. "I try to get a first down after every catch" he remarked.

 

One thing I noticed was how well Bersin wraps up the ball after the catch.

"I go in there for maybe one or two plays a game, I can't fumble."

 

Bersin gets it.

 

Brenton is the ideal role player at WR for this team. He understands what he can do, and just as importantly what he must never do.

Not shifty enough for punt returns. He is back there on kickoffs though.

 

I thought the response would be in relation to his speed and quickness, but to be honest, I think it most benefits the team right now to have sure hands back there.  I like Philly and want him to succeed, but if another ball ends up on the ground, I think a change is necessary.

 

If Bersin could just fair catch or run straight ahead when he had the room, I would take that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
