Should the Panthers make any moves over the bye week?

Don't be down on Funchess or Norwood yet. Norwood been inactive and its not fair to say he can't catch yet. Funchess is a rookie we were spoiled by KB and Funch is doing what a rookie WR usually does. 

I also don't think they've used Funchess well with his skill set. I haven't seen a good jump ball for him like we gave KB all last year. 

If we do something it won't be exciting because even if you disagree the front office believes the WR we have now are doing well enough to win so why break the bank or a draft pick to fix it.

Not down on Funch and Norwood because of anything they have or haven't done, but the fact that the staff obviously believes that the current guys who are out there are better options at this point speaks volumes.  They suck (right now).  Hopefully they'll develop.

KB had a fugton of drops last year, but he also had a bunch of good games because we were force feeding him the ball. Why aren't we doing the same with Funchess? This is the perfect time to force the former Michigan star to be the baller he was in school. Its far too soon to give up on him.

Literally the slowest man in football coming into our offence sounds like the worst idea ever.

Would immediately help in the redzone which is a skillset literally none of our healthy receivers have. But I wouldn't want us to trade anything for him.

If we force fed the ball to Funch through the first 4 games, Cam would have 10 interceptions and we'd be 0-4. He is not even close to where he needs to be. It'll take time, we knew that from the beginning.

It'd likely be around what we gave up for Allen. If you arent willing to part with that to truly bolster this team then I don't know what to tell you. 

We saw players failing to produce on the defensive side of the ball and we refused to stand for it. I like tnat. Now i'd like to see us do it on the other side of the ball.

It would take $5.5M of our cap space this year. And he wouldn't bolster anything. Can't be compared to Allen at all.

Oh noes not our cap space!!

 

And youre right, just like james jones, michael crabtree, brandon marshall, or an endless list of other names, no players are out there that have ever been an improvement to One Catch Corey.

 

youve got such a great track record with that argument bro! Keep saying it!

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too!

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
