Philly Brown


WOW!!

Recommended Posts

Maybe I'm looking at this wrong but I saw Philly as the small quick Wrs .. Who gets Yac and makes short passes big gains... 

He can run deep routes but also gets smoke screens and slant routes as well.. And maybe this is a plan not to show anything in the preseason and only run vanilla routes and we will see these plays in the regular season...

So I'm not giving up on Philly in that aspect ....

 

My problem with Philly is.. He needs to either be a better hands catcher.. So he snatching the ball out the air and ready to run after  catches.. Or countine you being a body catcher and be prepare to take hits going across the middle... I don't see the 2nd thing because he is always looking for a place to fall when he knows he is about to take a hit...  So he needs to improve his hands so he can reach his full potential.. He gets to much separation to always go to the ground after making a body catch...

He's just not that good.  He surprised last year simply by making the team and making a contribution, but our WR corps was trash overall and he had 21 catches for less than 300 yards.  Not sure why everyone wanted to rush to crown his ass after that.  Anytime you get anything out of a UDFA, you have to count yourself as fortunate, but it seemed like everyone wanted to pencil him in as our starting slot WR for the next decade.  Easy now...

Im not %100  sold on Brown either. PPersonally I'd like to see Boykin get some reps with the starters Fri.

I have no idea who I want to see getting the reps.  We just really, really need Funchess to get healthy ASAP and be able to be a legit threat because our WR corps is terrifying.

You and me both. I believe Boykin is a damn good underrated receiver. If anybody watched the Packers in 2013 when Cobb and Rodgers was hurt, he came in and put up some pretty good numbers for the season. He attacks the ball in the air better than Philly and is a bigger frame. I hope he gets reps with the ones Friday.

I think he has earned It.

Jarrett Boykin is better than Philly Brown. I wouldn't cut him just yet. I would put him on the practice squad.

 

Philly = Upgrade over Reggie Wayne at this point. He won't make it past waivers. If NE got him they would turn him into next Wes Welker IMO

 

I don't get why we are talking about PSing him instead of Spicoli Bersin

    • As long as Morgan is the GM, Young will be the QB. Young is 100% Morgan's guy. The contract extension is pretty much guaranteed unless Young suffers a career ending injury this season.
    • People really need to stop placing Dan Morgan on some kind of infallible pedestal. He is absolutely in lockstop with Tepper regarding Bryce and has been all along. As far as the team being okay with 185 passing yards per game. We better have a proven monster RB in our backfield then. Presently that guy is not on the roster. Chuba has one outlier season so far and the other guys have proven nothing. Not what you would call a great recipe. The only thing we can hope at this juncture is that the highest paid OL in the league for the second year in a row elevates their play from last season and opens up some massive holes even our RB's can get through. But it still doesn't resolve the issue of predictability. With no viable passing game it is much easier to shut down any run game. No defenses are scared of Bryce's arm. It is what it is.
    • i lived in Atlanta from 84'to 92' & back then it was indeed a very different time without the internet & access to information 24/7. shortly after i moved back home to western NC around 93' or 94' the Carolina Panthers were awarded an NfL franchise & began their inaugural season in 95' so ike you i have seen the Carolina Panthers, ,the NFL ,technology, fans all evolve over the many a moon & years now some for the better & others not so ...just saying
