Play of the Day - Ted Ginn

[Jeremy Igo]

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 it. Ginn thrived here in 2013 with Cam Newton. Plain to see why it was an easy decision for him to sign on again for 2 years.

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.

lol I think Gman is giving a bonus to any WR that makes Norman feel like he is not a shut down corner so he can resign him cheaper.
