Panthers wide receiver are "second-to-last" in YAC

In YAC we are ranked 29th but if you take away the running backs and Greg Olsen only the Chiefs are worst, and that's mainly due to with Alex Smith refusal to throw to his receivers

 

 

So I hear a lot of people saying what's the point of drafting a receiver if Cam has no time, well what's the point of drafting a OT if nobody gets open? the last two games outside of Bell the line has played decent yet we have still struggled, the receivers get no separation and when they do, they get tackled immediately

 

I would have no problem with picking a OT in the first round but if Cooper is there we have to pick him, none of the OT coming out this year are getting high praise

I think it plays more on play design as it was just mentioned. Shula does not design plays to the strengths of our players. IMO, He is using Jericho and he was using Avant wrong. I really think one of our biggest issues is Shula. He has never been a good OC. I just don't get why our staff can't see that. If you know our o line is not that great, why not call more screens or quick slants. It is very elementary. YAC is a big number to look at. Everytime we make a completion, our guy is immediately tackled. With the type of season we are having, it is hard to pin it on just one unit.

I really hope Cooper is available and we pick him in the draft. Not only do we need a speedy guy, but we need a playmaker in the worst way. Sad, because we also need offensive lineman in the worst way as well. We've got a bunch of 3 and 4 receivers out there, except Benji.

A lot of that has to do with ball placement. If Cam could put the ball between the numbers most of the time then the receivers wouldn't have to stretch out or jump up and could then run.

      This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
