A little appreciation for...

I'm one of his biggest critics, but it's more so because of the role we've forced him to play. He would be my favorite #4/situational #3 reciever in the entire league... 

Regardless, I was stoked with that effort for the first down and his TD catch...   But man, seeing him attempt to run away from defenders after the catch is like watching a moped try to outrun a Ducati lol. 

Still, good job from Cotch today.

I don't understand why ginn is number one over him. I feel ginn would be better in the slot spot. I was pleased with Funch as well even though he didn't get much action they are bringing him along. In a couple of weeks he will be solid...dang I miss KB

im not just saying this because Ginn is my "adopt-a-panther", but Ginn would have had a great game if he would have caught that one touchdown pass. his stat line would have been like 3 for 80-something and a TD. thats a pretty solid line. not world-beating, but pretty good. 

im comfortable with Ginn being the "#1" for right now. if he has another bad game next week, perhaps someone else should get more snaps over him.

even if they do, we need to put/keep Ginn and Brown on the outside to stretch opposing defenses with their speed

Agreed. And another thing... While Philly didn't do a whole lot this game he had 2 good catches in traffic after the terrible preseason and no drops. The second one where he held on was a very good catch and showed good strength hanging on. I'm not ready to give up on him yet and hopefully he can improve his game to the point where he could be a solid weapon on offense. Just combine these catches with how open he was in the preseason and he's really solid. Had troubles getting open today, but I think he'll be able to put it all together.

    • There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years. 
    • All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens
    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
