Ted Ginn and Josh Norman have been going at every day in Panthers training camp.

Today, Ted Ginn had the upper hand. 

On a fly route, Ginn was able to get just enough separation to make a fantastic catch from a Cam Newton pass for 30 yards. Josh Norman really could not have played better defense. He was in Ginn's hip pocket the entire play, just where he needed to be. Ginn just made a fantastic play that defenses will give up from time to time.

After the catch, Ginn held the ball high signaling he still had the ball.

When he got up, Ginn spun the ball in a "Steve Smith-esque" type move, letting Norman subtly know he had been bested.

This type of play is exactly what was missing from the Panthers offense for the majority of last season. Just the threat of having Ted Ginn out wide should open up things for Cam a great deal.

Love having Ginn back.  He's said he was chasing a check in Arizona, and seems happy to be back with Cam.  

 

Going back to 2013, he alligator armed a few too many passes.  IF he can cut some of that out, he's a difference maker on offense.  Not to mention special teams. Really excited to have him, KB, Olsen, Funch, and Philly.

Ted Ginn is one of the main reasons i am excited for this offense. Surely even shula cant fug up with all these weapons, right? RIGHT?!

no but seriously if he does, he gone. and that, my friends, will be a great thing for this franchise. so if our offense balls out, great. if they dont, there's no one to blame but shula. and his head will be the first to roll.

It seems odd to me that other teams haven't been able to figure out how to utilize Ginn's talent/skill set.  I hated it when he left after 2013, but was glad he didn't tear it up in the desert.  Hoping he can at least mirror his 2013 numbers for us this year.

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up putting in a significant chunk of time at WR2. The guy just seems motivated and willing to do whatever it takes. He's been regarded as a bust relative to his draft selection for years, but I think he just needed to fit in. I think we would've resigned him if money hadn't have been so tight.

      You Done with Morgan Yet?

      By Newtcase · Posted

      I was never onboard with Morgan to begin with.  The dude always seemed a hammer short of a full tool bag, maybe too many concussions.  He was a Fitterer hold over and I thought he should have been gone when Fitts went.  He literally made it to NFL GM with no credentials to speak of other than a playing career.  Shorts stints of personnel management for the Seahawks and Bills, neither organization choosing promotion or retention.  I believe Morgan was added as a friendly face to sooth the a fanbase that was growing to hate Tepper and probably retained for the same reason.  Morgan never coached, had minimal front office experience and the GM he "assisted" was deservedly fired.  From what I can find online he received a BA in Liberal Arts from Miami so that isn't exactly a qualification either.

      If you really want to change the identity of the culture, then your opinion may indeed be the way to go. 1) I see nothing from our drafts since 2020 to indicate that either the scouts or the GM's are shrew evaluators of college talent. 2) A new GM should be able to hire a coach since his livelihood is directly affected by how well the coach can get the team to perform on Sundays. The only time I'm ok with a GM keeping the coach that proceeded his hiring is if the new GM wants to work with the coach. Ideally, He should have final say over the coach instead of the owner. And, that coach and GM need to be in sync on how the team should be run on both sides of the ball. 3) A new coach should be able to pick his own staff. If he wants to keep a coach already on the staff that's fine. A new HC hire shouldn't be told that you have to use this guy for one of the jobs, especially a position as important OC or DC.

      The crazy thing is some of these plays that went down to like 2 on the play clock were basic inside zone runs. That poo shouldn't take 30+ seconds to decide when you are down 24... It's not like they had to hot route multiple receivers and change blocking assignments after lining up. It's almost like Canales has somebody else's playbook and needs to flip through 10 pages to try and figure out what play he is going to run
