Ted Ginn Jr could return to Panthers

those alligator arms get worse and worse the farther down the field he goes. IMO, all he can be counted for is a return specialist...which is something we need, but it's rough on the overall roster to have just one guy for just one reason.

Anyone who can return punts which requires you to barrel head long into 11 guys trying to take your head off ought to be able to catch a ball with only one or two defenders trying to separate you from the ball. It has to be a mental thing. He is surely tough enough to concentrate on the ball and not try to overprotect himself.

A lot of people knock him, but I was at the Arizona game last year, he caught a skinny post right in front on me, took a huge shot, held on, and popped right back up. For a second, I thought it was Smitty, but got up, 19, I was like damn... he showed he's more then just a return guy to me on that one catch. I'd welcome him back here on return ability alone, but he fits as a weapon on O as well

Indeed, being high is something he's proven to be good at.

The next Josh Gordon!

 

LOL, boy oh boy do we got a casual college football watcher here.  DGB needed guidance and Bob Stoops and his staff provided it.  Hence the reason he didn't get in trouble while being on the PRACTICE SQUAD at OU last year.  Being around a bunch of pros like Olsen, TD, Luke, Cam, and Cotch will take the man to another level.  Who on the Browns is a good leader?  Oh that's right, no one.

Huddle doing its best impression of a guy who broke up with his girlfriend and got depressed during the post-breakup dry spell.

 

Booty calling your ex is never the answer.  

Panthers in desperate need of KR/PR.  Ted Ginn = elite KR/PR man.  I call that an answer.

 

Can't act like this was a breakup in the first place.  There was no animosity between him and the Panthers.  He was on a 1 year deal, we had to move him up the depth chart due to injury, he stepped in a did a good job, and his value increased.  Arizona offered him more than he's worth, even if he would have put up 500+ yards and 5 TD's with them, and then they didn't even use him for anything but KR/PR, which makes the deal look even worse.  Dave is not dumb enough to make a deal like that.  Now he's probably a cap casualty, and can likely be had for vet min, which is what he's worth.

Ginn coming back to Charlotte makes perfect sense for both sides. Panthers need the special teams help and Ginn has always wanted to be known as more than a return specialist and the Panthers are the team that allowed him to do that and he knows that. I think when (and if) he is released from AZ, Ginn coming back to Carolina is probable.

What about his shitty route running and his tendency to quit on pays he's not involved in? Did they fix those problems too?

Also, have you ever seen DGB play in person? I have. Amazing physical specimen. Lazy on the field unless he knows he has a chance to be part of the play. "Casual" college football fan... lol. Is 28 years as a season ticket holder "casual"?

    • I think you've taken my comment out of context as well. I never implied that his father being a psychologist would make him a better leader or make him a psychologist. If your dad is a lawyer, you're more likely to be exposed to law. If your dad is a doctor you're more likely to be exposed to medicine that's all.  My question is, why did you take my comment that way? 
    • Are you guys trying to say that the Cam ‘haters’  exactly mirror the Darnold ‘lovers”? Same people?  I don’t think that is it at all. I think it is more likely to be different people, probably with some overlap. This racism thing, when most of the team and league is Black and people are big fans of plenty of Black players, but have football issues with one or two and that makes them a racist? I don’t understand that at all.   I will tell you also, Sam Darnold at the price he would have cost, and all that cost invested in other areas plus we’d have DJ Moore, was a far better option than what they did.   
    • More of the same, but with actual statistics thrown in with the film review. It's a long one He puts blame on the offense and coaches as well, but doesn't sound too high on Bryce's ceiling. Lots of words but here's the basic summary Young’s lack of arm strength and size creates little room for error in his play. If he takes one extra hitch or is a hair late getting rid of the football, defenders often make plays on the ball or squeeze windows even tighter. The issue is that Young constantly needs to take an extra hitch to get enough zip on the ball when throwing to the outside and he often needs to work backward in the pocket to see that target. What does this all mean for Young going forward? Well, let’s just say it’s not exactly a rosy start to his professional career. It’s a rough statistical profile and his play wasn’t overwhelming when I studied him. Yes, former No. 1 picks like Goff and Trevor Lawrence have overcome their horrid rookie years to become viable quarterbacks, but those are the exceptions to the rule, and Lawrence showed more glimpses of high-end play during his rookie year during the Urban Meyer experience than Young did under Reich and the rest of the Panthers' funky bunch coaches. This is not to say that Young is a bust already, either. His accuracy and intelligence still translate to every offense and still give him a floor as a viable starter, and better teammates, like the newly acquired Diontae Johnson and explosive rookie wideout Xavier Legette, should help highlight those traits even more. But, you take a player No. 1 overall to move the needle, not to just get the job done. Young has a path to be a quarterback who can keep an offense on time with some ad-libbing ability to add creativity and spice to an offense (Alex Smith, another quarterback with a rough rookie season, is a play style and career comparison I keep coming back to for Young). But to justify that 1.1 selection, Young (and Canales) have to push it even more in 2024 and beyond. https://sports.yahoo.com/bryce-youngs-hopes-for-a-bounce-back-season-with-panthers-comes-down-to-more-than-just-his-supporting-cast-140010168.html
