Deion Just Said It Best

Said with the exception of Seattle, look at all of the teams in the playoffs and their offensive personnel. Every other team "has a Batman and a Robin" on offense. He said Cam is the only other guy outside of Wilson that brought his team to the divisional round with no real offensive help (he did say we didn't get the ball to Olsen enough though). He said we shouldve had Smitty on the other side of Benjamin, "or somebody!"

He and LT just said that is why it's so hard for Cam with this team because he has no help.

And I think his statement about Wilson and Seattle being the only other exception is questionable if you include the offensive line.

I didn't say it, Deion did.

As well as LT.

they did mention Olsen didn't get the ball enough, but kept saying KB is young and still developing - basically he isn't a #1 yet.

Now, my personal opinion, I don't trust that kb will be a #1. He is fairly one dimensional and the drops are a huge problem.

We need speed on the outside.

Yep, two 1k yard receivers are definitely not anything to hang your hat on...

wait a second...

Cam Newton doesn't need help. He's Superman remember. Lets continue putting focus on a defense, that's schematically flawed without pressure. That Kaepernick and Wilson was straight efficient against. Let's also say no thanks to threads about solidified WR like Brandon Marshall and defend the chopping our WR core for one that has Brenton Bersin as Cam 1st read.

I think reinforcements are on the way. Hopefully Gettleman learned from his last offseason and will do things a little differently this time around. The problem with first time GMs is that everything is a learning curve like it was for Rivera. You just have to take the good with the bad until then. Cam needs weapons and the line has to get better. And we need improved safety and corner play. Bring in guys to challenge who is under contract.

I have been thinking this as well, but here's a question. I am new to football, so what makes a WR a #1 vs a #2?

See my subsequent post.

Let me get this straight, you start a thread saying that 'Deion Just Said It Best', implying you agree wholeheartedly with him... Then you immediately throw your hands in the air in defense when everyone says that that notion is fuging ridiculous (which it is).

Sorry dude, but that's hilarious.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
