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.

    • Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows
    • I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.
    • Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
