Guys, Corey Can Be Our #1!

I absolutely hate when people refer to Olsen as our 1. If he was our 1 before KB got hurt,   then he is our 1 now.  He's a TE for crying out loud.  He's a very good one at that,  but he isn't our WR1.  

As for any WR not named Funchess (and I am seriously skeptical about that his rookie season), Lord help us.

The way I see #1 and #2 and #3, etc. is by the amount of targets. I include TEs in that, but you could choose not to. The #1 receiver on a team is the one who gets the most targets. KB led the team in targets with 24 more than Olsen last year, so in my eyes he is the #1. Olsen will probably lead the team in targets next year which would make him our #1. I'd guess Funchess after him then Brown then a tossup between Ginn, Cotch and Dickson even. Pretty worried about our passing attack this year. Going to have to really really hope Stew can play a whole season and our line can hold up.

All it's going to take is one of our guys to step up and the rest to do as well as they did last year and we will be fine.  Funchass coming in and doing no less than one might expect as a 2nd round rookie and I'll be happy.  If he does better than that it is just a bonus.

 

No need for doom and gloom yet.  I'll wait till the 2nd Monday after the bye week to start panicking.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
